Abstract:
In one embodiment, a policy manager may receive operating system scheduling information, performance prediction information for at least one future quantum, and current processor utilization information, and determine a performance prediction for a future quantum and whether to cause a switch between asymmetric cores of a multicore processor based at least in part on this received information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
