摘要:
Methods and apparatus to improve integrated circuit (IC) performance across a range of operating conditions and/or physical constraints are described. In one embodiment, an operating parameter of one or more of processor cores may be adjusted in response to a change in the activity level of processor cores (e.g., the number of active processor cores) and/or a comparison of one or more operating conditions and one or more corresponding threshold values. Other embodiments are also described.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a processor having a core and a power controller to control power management features of the processor. The power controller can receive an energy performance bias (EPB) value from the core and access a power-performance tuning table based on the value. Using information from the table, at least one setting of a power management feature can be updated. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
The efficiency rating (ER) of each domain, in a processor, may be compared and then the power budget may be allocated, effectively, among the domains based on the ERs of the domains. The ER may indicate relative advantage among domains in terms of performance return for a given power budget, i.e., a higher effectiveness may be expected in power utilization if the ER is higher for a domain. The ER of a domain may be defined as (scalability factor/cost factor*alpha). The scalability factor may be defined as a performance increase (in %) brought about by an increase in the clock frequency (in %) provided to the domain. The cost factor may be defined as a power budget value required in bringing about an increase in the clock frequency provided to the domain and alpha is an adjustment factor.
