Abstract: An example apparatus includes a workload analyzer to determine an application ratio associated with the workload, the application ratio based on an operating frequency to execute the workload, a hardware configurator to configure, before execution of the workload, at least one of (i) one or more cores of the processor circuitry based on the application ratio or (ii) uncore logic of the processor circuitry based on the application ratio, and a hardware controller to initiate the execution of the workload with the at least one of the one or more cores or the uncore logic.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for workload optimized central processing units are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes a workload analyzer to determine an application ratio associated with the workload, the application ratio based on an operating frequency to execute the workload, a hardware configurator to configure, before execution of the workload, at least one of (i) one or more cores of the processor circuitry based on the application ratio or (ii) uncore logic of the processor circuitry based on the application ratio, and a hardware controller to initiate the execution of the workload with the at least one of the one or more cores or the uncore logic.

Abstract: An apparatus can include processor cores and control circuitry coupled to the processor cores. The control circuitry can detect at least one of a power characteristic and a frequency characteristic of at least one of the processor cores. The control circuitry can determine that a frequency control opportunity is present on at least one of the processor cores based on at least one of the power characteristic and the frequency characteristic. The control circuitry can adjust a power parameter of at least one of the processor cores responsive to determining that the frequency control opportunity is present.

Abstract: A processor writes input data to a cache line of a shared cache, wherein the input data is ready to be operated on by an accelerator. It then notifies an accelerator that the input data is ready to be processed. The processor then determines that output data of the accelerator is ready to be consumed, the output data being located at the cache line or an additional cache line of the shared cache, wherein the cache line or the additional cache line comprises a set first flag that indicates the cache line or the additional cache line was modified by the accelerator and that prevents the output data from being removed from the cache line or the additional cache line until the output data is read by the processor. The processor reads and processes the output data from the cache line or the additional cache.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for evaluating security of a network environment. Security data associated with an asset in the network environment collected over a first period of time is analyzed to detect security events occurring at a rate above a reference rate. Security data associated with the asset collected over a second period of time, greater than the first period of time, is analyzed to detect security events occurring at a rate below the reference rate. A threat index is generated based on the detected security events.
