    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes a plurality of cores and a plurality of temperature sensors, where each core is proximate to at least one temperature sensor. The processor also includes a power control unit (PCU) including temperature logic to receive temperature data that includes a corresponding temperature value from each of the temperature sensors. Responsive to an indication that a highest temperature value of the temperature data exceeds a threshold, the temperature logic is to adjust a plurality of domain frequencies according to a determined policy that is based on instruction execution characteristics of at least two of the plurality of cores. Each domain frequency is associated with a corresponding domain that includes at least one of the plurality of cores and each domain frequency is independently adjustable. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes measurement logic to measure a usage associated with the processor. The processor also includes statistical logic to determine, based on a statistical procedure, whether to provide a permission to record an increase in usage responsive to an indication that the usage has increased by a defined amount. The processor also includes control logic to record the defined increase in usage in non-volatile memory responsive to receipt of the permission to record from the statistical logic. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes one or more cores to execute instructions and a power controller coupled to the one or more cores. In turn, the power controller includes a control logic to receive an indication, from one or more sources, of a dynamic change to a guaranteed frequency at which at least one of the one or more cores are to operate, and to determine a final guaranteed frequency at which the processor is to operate for a next window, and to communicate the final guaranteed frequency to at least one entity. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment an apparatus includes a temperature sensor to perform a multiplicity of junction temperature measurements for a component in a platform, a controller comprising logic at least a portion of which is in hardware. The logic may receive from the temperature sensor the multiplicity of junction temperature measurements and may instruct the component to perform a first power down action of the component when a junction temperature measurement exceeds a first threshold, and may instruct the component to perform a second power down action of the component when an average junction temperature based on the multiplicity of junction temperature measurements exceeds a second threshold. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to dynamically configure overclocking frequency have been disclosed. An example apparatus include a clock rate adjuster to cause a processor core to operate at a first overclocked clock rate; a comparator to compare a sensed temperature corresponding to the processor core to a threshold; and the clock rate adjuster to, when the sensed temperature satisfies the threshold, decrease a clock rate of the processor core from the first overclocked clock rate by a user-defined amount, the decreased clock rate being above a normal operating clock rate of the processor core.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a technique to be performed by a power control unit (PCU) of an electronic device. Specifically, the PCU may identify, based on a metric related to an activity level of a processor core of a multi-core processor of the electronic device, first, second, and third weights that are respectively related to first, second, and third cores of the multi-core processor. Based on these weights, the PCU may identify a number of active processor cores of the multi-core processor, and alter a frequency limit of the multi-core processor accordingly. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
