  • Publication number: 20150186157
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to workload scalability-based processor performance state control are described. In an embodiment, logic detects a request to change a performance setting for a processor. The logic causes modification to the request based on workload scalability information that is detected by hardware in the processor. The workload scalability information is detected over a (e.g., an observation) period. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

  • Patent number: 8386808
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a power budget allocation engine of a multi-component computer system may receive a power budget allocation adjustment request signal from a first component. Based on the received budget allocation adjustment request signal (and, in some embodiments, a component preference), the power budget allocation engine may determine whether to adjust a power budget allocation signal provided to the first component.
