Abstract:
A multicore processor provides for local power control at each of the cores which is used to lower the maximum operating frequency of cores by any amount above of the maximum operating frequency of the slowest core. This power savings is then used to increase the maximum operating frequency of the frequency balanced cores within a power constraint.
