摘要： A computer system with unattended on-demand availability includes power-saving features which place the system into a Standby mode whenever the system is idle or is not being used. Prior to entering Standby mode, the system sets a hardware timer which indicates when the next scheduled event in the system should be performed. When either the timer expires or another event occurs which requires system operation, the system resumes to the On power state without user intervention. In one embodiment, the system of the present invention allows applications to periodically save their operational states. By saving their operational states, applications are able to guard against power failures and crashes. If a power failure or crash occurs, the system consults restart policies and, if appropriate, automatically re-starts applications to their most recently saved operational states once power is re-stored.

摘要： A method and apparatus for task scheduling across multiple execution sessions allows each scheduled task to be scheduled to occur at a specific time(s), to occur periodically, or to occur in response to certain system events. A task can be scheduled which requires execution of an application even if the application is not running at the scheduled time or event, and even if the system is in a low-power standby mode at the scheduled time or event. In one embodiment, the present invention keeps track of specific time events by setting a timer(s) which indicates the time which should elapse until a scheduled event is to occur. When a timer expires, the system determines which task is scheduled to occur at the time the timer expires and executes that task. In one embodiment, the present invention checks a scheduling database to determine which task is scheduled to occur when a timer expires.

摘要： An apparatus, method and system is described herein for efficiently balancing performance and power between processing elements based on measured workloads. If a workload of a processing element indicates that it is a bottleneck, then its performance may be increased. However, if a platform or integrated circuit including the processing element is already operating at a power or thermal limit, the increase in performance is counterbalanced by a reduction or cap in another processing elements performance to maintain compliance with the power or thermal limit. As a result, bottlenecks are identified and alleviated by balancing power allocation, even when multiple processing elements are operating at a power or thermal limit.

摘要： Systems and methods of operating a computing system may involve identifying a plurality of state values, wherein each state value corresponds to a computing thread associated with a processor. An average value can be determined for the plurality of state values, wherein a determination may be made as to whether to grant a frequency boost request based at least in part on the average value.

摘要： A processor of an aspect includes at least one lower processing capability and lower power consumption physical compute element and at least one higher processing capability and higher power consumption physical compute element. Migration performance benefit evaluation logic is to evaluate a performance benefit of a migration of a workload from the at least one lower processing capability compute element to the at least one higher processing capability compute element, and to determine whether or not to allow the migration based on the evaluated performance benefit. Available energy and thermal budget evaluation logic is to evaluate available energy and thermal budgets and to determine to allow the migration if the migration fits within the available energy and thermal budgets. Workload migration logic is to perform the migration when allowed by both the migration performance benefit evaluation logic and the available energy and thermal budget evaluation logic.
