Abstract:
Embodiments may be generally direct to apparatuses, systems, method, and techniques to provide multi-interconnect protocol communication. In an embodiment, an apparatus for providing multi-interconnect protocol communication may include a component comprising at least one connector operative to connect the component to at least one off-package device via a standard interconnect protocol, and logic, at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware, the logic to determine data to be communicated via a multi-interconnect protocol, provide the data to a multi-protocol multiplexer to determine a route for the data, route the data on-package responsive to the multi-protocol multiplexer indicating a multi-interconnect on-package mode, and route the data off-package via the at least one connector responsive to the multi-protocol multiplexer indicating a multi-interconnect off-package mode. Other embodiments are described.
Abstract:
One embodiment of an apparatus includes a semiconductor chip having a processor and an on-die non-volatile storage resource. The on-die non-volatile storage may store different, appropriate performance related information for different configurations and usage cases of the processor for a same performance state of the processor.

Abstract:
A processor may include a core and an uncore area. The power consumed by the core area may be controlled by controlling the Cdyn of the processor such that the Cdyn is within an allowable Cdyn value irrespective of the application being processed by the core area. The power management technique includes measuring digital activity factor (DAF), monitoring architectural and data activity levels, and controlling power consumption by throttling the instructions based on the activity levels. As a result of throttling the instructions, throttling may be implemented in 3rd droop and thermal design point (TDP). Also, the idle power consumed by the uncore area while the core area is in deep power saving states may be reduced by varying the reference voltage VR and the VP provided to the uncore area. As a result, the idle power consumed by the uncore area may be reduced.
