Thanks very much, summaries follows:

They refer to them as Projects, generally.

Don't have good links to Oracle's docs - they've made it hard to pull

You are looking for Solaris Resource Manager (SRM).

Giovanni:

Solaris includes resource management tools that allow you to create a
processor set and bind processes to it. Although they are often used
with Solaris Containers to create isolated environment, that's is not
necessary.

I don't know about a "tool"... these things are part of the Solaris
kernel and are managed with some userland tools (see the doc below)...
it's not like there is a daemon taking care of it. AFAIK.
