TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR EXECUTING APPLICATION IN SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a terminal and a method for executing an application in the same, including the steps of: confirming the weight of the application when a code of the application to be executed is inputted; calculating an allocation index using the confirmed weight; selecting a processing device for executing the application between a central processing unit and a graphics processing unit through the calculated application index; and executing the application through the selected processing device. Accordingly, the present invention determines whether the execution of the application is assigned to the central processing unit or the graphics processing unit according to the weight designated by the user. Thus, the present invention can prevent the tipping effect of the workload only to one processing unit which is caused by an increase in the degree of freedom for the workload distribution.
