Abstract: Disclosed herein are a thermal management apparatus and method using a dynamic thermal margin, and a semiconductor processor device, a non-volatile data storage device and an access control method using the same. The thermal management apparatus and method using a dynamic thermal margin, and the semiconductor processor device, non-volatile data storage device and access control method using the same can guarantee required performance based on importance and priority by scaling a thermal margin based on the importance of a task or the priority of threads, can control the generation of heat in a software manner while being compatible with non-volatile memory interface standards, and can also provide performance varying depending on the importance of a request that is being processed.
