METHOD FOR VIRTUALIZATION-BASED CONTROL OF CPU COOLING, AND COMPUTING APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING SAME

摘要

The method for the virtualization-based control of CPU cooling includes the steps of: (a) reducing the speed of a cooling fan corresponding to a particular CPU when said particular CPU is not consuming power due to a thermal effect; and (b) raising the speed of the cooling fan when the temperature of said particular CPU approaches a throttling temperature within a predetermined range, thereby giving priority to the prevention of CPU throttling rather than to the prevention of power consumption.
