Abstract:
A heterogeneous processing device includes one or more relatively large processing units and one or more relatively small processing units. The heterogeneous processing device selectively activates a large processing unit or a small processing unit to run a process thread based on a predicted duration of an active state of the process thread.
Abstract:
A circuit includes a plurality of synchronizers to adapt a signal from a first clock domain to a second clock domain. Each synchronizer of the plurality of synchronizers includes a synchronizer input to receive the signal from the first clock domain and a synchronizer output to provide the signal as adapted to the second clock domain. The circuit also includes a multiplexer (mux) that includes a plurality of mux inputs and a mux output. Each mux input is coupled to the synchronizer output of a respective synchronizer of the plurality of synchronizers. The mux output provides the signal, as adapted to the second clock domain, from the synchronizer output of a selected synchronizer of the plurality of synchronizers.
Abstract:
A cooling system controller for a set of computing resources of a data center includes a first interface to couple to a first flow controller that controls a rate of thermal energy transfer to a PCM store from the set of computing resources, a second interface to couple to a second flow controller that controls a rate of thermal energy transfer from the PCM store to a cooling system, and a controller to determine a current set of operational parameters for the data center and to manipulate the first and second flow controllers and via the first and second interfaces to control a net thermal energy transfer to and from the PCM store based on the current set of parameters.

Abstract:
A processing device includes a producing processor unit in a first timing domain and a consuming processor unit in a second timing domain that is asynchronous with the first timing domain. A queue is used to convey data between the producing processor unit and the consuming processor unit. A system management unit is to modify one or both of an operating frequency or an operating voltage of one or both of the producing processor unit or the consuming processor unit based on a rate of change of a fullness of the queue.
