US Patent:

20230018221, Jan 19, 2023

Filed:

Sep 26, 2022

Appl. No.:

17/953002

Inventors:

Reshma Pattan - Tuam, IE
Pinkesh Shah - Chandler AZ, US
Chris MacNamara - Limerick, IE
Nikhil Gupta - Portland OR, US

International Classification:

G06F 1/3293
G06F 1/3287

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.

G06F 9/50

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, systems and machine-readable storage media of an edge computing device using an edge server CPU with dynamic deterministic scaling is disclosed. A processing circuitry arrangement includes processing circuitry with processor cores operating at a center base frequency and memory. The memory includes instructions configuring the processing circuitry to configure a first set of the processor cores of the CPU to switch the operating at the center base frequency to operating at a first modified base frequency, and a second set of the processor cores to switch the operating at the center base frequency to operating at a second modified base frequency. A same processor core within the first set or the second set can be configured to switch operating between the first modified base frequency or the second modified base frequency.
