Abstract: Herein disclosed are systems, methods, and apparatus for controlling data usage statistics in network-connected devices. The ‘stats’ collection can be suppressed during minimum window periods, thereby reducing CPU and resources usage needed to processes the stats collection. Further, the minimum window can be a function of a link speed of the communication channel as well as a data usage proximity to a data usage warning limit. Further, stats collection can be triggered by expiration of a timer or data usage that meets a buffer threshold, where both the timer and threshold are selected based on the communication channel link speed, and buffer threshold is further a function of the data usage proximity to the warning limit.

Abstract: Methods and systems for data path aware thermal management in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. A trigger event may be received at a thermal module in the PCD. The thermal module also receives thermal information about a plurality of processing components of the PCD in response to the trigger event, the thermal information including a temperature at the locations of the plurality of processing components. The thermal module also receives thermal information about at least one subsystem in response to the trigger event, the thermal information including temperature modeling information about the at least one subsystem and a second temperature at the location of the at least one subsystem. A thermal impact from the plurality of processing components executing a task over a period of time is predicted and a determination is made which processing component has the smallest amount of thermal impact from executing the task.
