SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASYNCHRONOUSLY AND INDEPENDENTLY CONTROLLING CORE CLOCKS IN A MULTICORE CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT

摘要

A method of controlling core clocks in a multicore central processing unit is disclosed and may include executing a zeroth dynamic clock and voltage scaling (DCVS) algorithm on a zeroth core and executing a first DCVS algorithm on a first core. The zeroth DCVS algorithm may operable to independently control a zeroth clock frequency associated with the zeroth core and the first DCVS algorithm may be operable to independently control a first clock frequency associated with the first core.
