Abstract: A dynamic adjustment of core power can reduce thermal margin between thermal design power (TDP) and an allowable thermal load. For example, by focusing directly on the core temperatures explicitly, a per-core closed loop temperature controller (pCLTC) can remove conservatism induced by the power level 1 policy (PL1, a policy which defines frequency and/or power for the processor under sustained load) thereby allowing for increased processor performance when there exists margin in the thermal system.

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.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes a current protection controller to: receive instruction width information and instruction type information associated with one or more instructions stored in an instruction queue prior to execution of the one or more instructions by an execution circuit; determine a power license level for the core based on the corresponding instruction width information and the instruction type information; generate a request for a license for the core corresponding to the power license level; and communicate the request to a power controller when the one or more instructions are non-speculative, and defer communication of the request when at least one of the one or more instructions is speculative. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Various embodiments comprise prioritizing frequency allocations in thermally- or power-constrained computing devices. Computer elements may be assigned ‘weights’ based on their priorities. The computer elements with higher weights may receive higher frequency allocations to assure they receive priority in processing more quickly. The computer elements with lower weights may receive lower frequency allocations and suffer a slowdown in their processing. Elements with the same weight may be grouped together for the purpose of frequency allocation.
