    Abstract: Systems and methods for temporarily adjusting the frequency of processors are disclosed. A computing device may include a plurality of processors that are each configured to execute one or more tasks at a corresponding one of a plurality of frequencies. A scheduling component migrates tasks between the processors to balance a load that is processed by the plurality of processors. A governor component includes a frequency adjustment component to control a frequency of each of the processors and a frequency synchronization component that detects when the scheduling component is migrating one of the tasks from a source processor to a destination processor. The synchronization component increases, based upon a frequency of the source processor, a frequency of the destination processor.
