Etymology

From Middle English hert, from Old English heorot (“stag”), from Proto-West Germanic *herut, from Proto-Germanic *herutaz (compare Dutch hert, German Hirsch, Danish/Norwegian/Swedish hjort), from Pre-Germanic *kerudos, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱerh₂- (“horn”). Doublet of Heorot.
Compare Welsh carw (“deer”), Latin cervus (“deer”), cervīx (“nape of the neck”), Lithuanian kárvė (“cow”), Russian коро́ва (koróva, “cow”), Ancient Greek κόρυδος (kórudos, “crested lark”), κορυφή (koruphḗ, “summit, crown of the head”), κορύπτω (korúptō, “to butt with horns”), Avestan 𐬯𐬭𐬏 (srū), 𐬯𐬭𐬎𐬎𐬁 (sruuā, “horn; claw, talon”), Sanskrit शरभ (śarabhá, “mythical antelope”). More at horn.

Abbreviation of hardware thread. As stated in The RISC-V Instruction Set Manual, Volume I:
The term hart was introduced in the work on Lithe (Pan et al., 2009) and (Pan et al., 2010) to provide a term to represent an abstract execution resource as opposed to a software thread programming abstraction.
The corresponding source reads:
Our proposal has two main components. First, we export a new low-level unvirtualized hardware thread abstraction, or hart, from the operating system to applications. […]
