Abstract: Examples herein relate to assigning, by a system agent of a central processing unit (CPU), an operating frequency to a core group based priority level of the core group while avoiding throttling of the system agent. Avoiding throttling of the system agent can include maintaining a minimum performance level of the system agent. A minimum performance level of the system agent can be based on a minimum operating frequency. Assigning, by a system agent of a central processing unit, an operating frequency to a core group based priority level of the core group while avoiding throttling of the system agent can avoid a thermal limit of the CPU. Avoiding thermal limit of the CPU can include adjusting the operating frequency to the core group to avoid performance indicators of the CPU. A performance indicator can indicate CPU utilization corresponds to Thermal Design Point (TDP).

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to power control mechanisms for workload processing systems, and in particular, multi-scale power control technologies that can be used to reduce the overhead of workload processing systems. The disclosed power control mechanisms operate on multiple timescales including a slow timescale and a fast timescale. Separate control loops (or governors) are used for the slow and fast timescales where each control loop includes its own trigger mechanisms and configurable operational policies. The operational policies for slow timescale control loop can be trained separately using various machine learning techniques while the operational policies for the fast timescale control loop can be simple and reactive heuristics.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic navigation of a marine environment area are detailed herein.
