    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: A processing platform and a method of controlling power consumption of a central processing unit of the processing platform are presented. By operating the method the processing platform is able to set an upper performance state limit and a lower performance state limit. The upper performance state limit is based on a central processing unit activity rate value and the lower performance state limit is based on a minimum require of the operating system to perform operating system tasks. The performance state values are varying within a range of the lower and upper limits according to a power management policy.

    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for determining a mode by which a processor is to be transitioned between power states. In one embodiment, circuitry selectively transitions power management of the processor to or from a limited power states (LPS) mode which, as compared to an alternative power management mode, makes a relatively limited number of two or more power states available to the processor. A transition to or from the LPS mode is performed based on a thermal condition such as one which is based on a skin temperature of a housing structure in which the processor is disposed. In another embodiment, transitions between the two or more power states is performed, during the LPS mode, based on a pendency of a software workload, or based on a completion of such a software workload.
