  • Publication number: 20250123673
    Abstract: The presently disclosed technology provides methods and systems for optimally allocating power among workloads executing on a computer system through use of a power management algorithm. For example, according to the present technology a plurality of CPUs within a server can be divided into multiple groups according to application workloads. Workloads can be distributed to the CPUs as needed by a workload scheduler, and the workload scheduler can provide the CPU IDs to a power manager, enabling the power manager to optimize power settings. Each group of CPUs can be assigned an optimal power profile tailored to its respective situation.
