摘要:
A device having multiple cores executes an algorithm to control Thin-Film Thermoelectric Coolers (TFTEC) that employ the Peltier effect to remove heat from the various cores of the multi-core processor. The algorithms may combine Thread Migration (TM) and Dynamic Voltage/Frequency Scaling (DVFS) to provide Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM) and TFTEC control.
摘要:
A method and system to selectively move one or more of a plurality threads which are executing in parallel by a plurality of processing cores. In one embodiment, a thread may be moved from executing in one of the plurality of processing cores to executing in another of the plurality of processing cores, the moving based on a performance characteristic associated with the plurality of threads. In another embodiment of the invention, a power state of the plurality of processing cores may be changed to improve a power efficiency associated with the executing of the multiple threads.

摘要:
An apparatus for storing X-bit digitized data, the register file comprising: a plurality of registers each register configured for storing X bits, wherein each register is partitioned into Y sub-registers such that each sub-register stores at least X/Y bits, and wherein at least one extra X/Y-bit sub-register is incorporated in each register to provide redundancy in the number of sub-registers for a total of at least Y+1 sub-registers per register, so that if a first sub-register in a first register includes faulty bits, data destined for storage in the first sub-register is stored in a second sub-register, in the first register, that does not include faulty bits.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus relating to disabling one or more cache portions during low voltage operations are described. In some embodiments, one or more extra bits may be used for a portion of a cache that indicate whether the portion of the cache is capable at operating at or below Vccmin levels. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
摘要:
An integrated circuit is cooled by microarchitecture controlled Peltier effect cooling. In one embodiment, a temperature sensor thermally coupled to at least a portion of the integrated circuit of a die is adapted to provide an output as a function of the temperature of an integrated circuit portion. Operation of a thermoelectric cooler thermally coupled to the integrated circuit portion is controlled as a function of the sensor output, wherein a controller of the integrated circuit controls the thermal electric cooler. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
