摘要： Aspects of the embodiments are directed to systems, methods, and program products for rebalancing power in a multi-chip computing platform, which includes a core processor and a discrete peripheral processor. Embodiments include determining that the core processor and the discrete peripheral processor are in a limited usage state; altering a polling interval of the core processor and the discrete peripheral processor from a first polling time to a second polling time, the second polling time greater than the first polling time; and polling the core processor and the discrete peripheral processor after an expiration of the second polling time. Embodiments also include using thermal and/or energy consumption data to dynamically adjust polling times to permit the core processor and the discrete peripheral processor to remain in an idle or low power state for as long as possible.

摘要： In one embodiment, a processor includes: at least one core; and a power controller coupled to the at least one core. The power controller may include: a workload monitor circuit to calculate a background task ratio based on a first amount of time that the at least one core executed background tasks during an active duration; and a control circuit to dynamically apply a power management policy for a background mode when the background task ratio exceeds a background mode threshold, the power management policy for the background mode to reduce power consumption of the processor. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture for power sharing between discrete processors are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a thermal monitor to monitor temperatures of first and second discrete processors and a balance controller to, in response to a first temperature of the first processor satisfying a temperature threshold, adjust first and second power budgets allocated to the respective first and second processors.

摘要： Techniques are described for incorporating telemetry related to power source loading and the frequency of power-control events as part of a power balancing algorithm to control an electronic devices' power budgeting among devices sharing a common power source. The techniques utilize telemetry and control loop algorithms to dynamically balance the power between two or more electronic components, which may include a CPU and a GPU. The techniques as described herein function to monitor power source loading as well as the frequency of a predetermined set of events, which may include performance and/or power control events. Based on this information, the power budgets of the devices may be dynamically adjusted up or down to maximize performance, in contrast with the conventional usage of artificial static performance caps.

摘要： In one embodiment, a method receives data regarding processing of a workload by a processor. The data is input into a prediction engine configured to classify the data into a plurality of workload classifications. Each workload classification describes different temporal behavior of the workload. Then, the method outputs a prediction for at least one of the plurality of workload classifications, wherein the prediction is used to control performance of the processor in an upcoming period of time.
