One embodiment of the present invention includes an adaptive voltage scaling system associated with an integrated circuit (IC). The system comprises at least one target performance circuit comprising a first semiconductor material and being configured to determine at least one voltage potential in response to achieving a target performance based on an applied voltage. The system also comprises a controller configured to set an output of a variable power supply to the determined at least one voltage potential, and an aging controller configured to control the at least one target performance circuit to age the first semiconductor material at a rate that is at least substantially commensurate with a rate at which other circuitry in the IC ages.
