An operating method of a system-on-chip (SoC) which includes a processor including a first core and a dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) module and a clock management unit (CMU) for supplying an operating clock to the first core, the operating method including: obtaining a required performance of the first core; finding available frequencies meeting the required performance; obtaining information for calculating energy consumption for each of the available frequencies; calculating the energy consumption for each of the available frequencies, based on the information; determining a frequency, which causes minimum energy consumption, from among the available frequencies as an optimal frequency; and

System-on-chip and an operating method thereof

A method of controlling an operation of a multi-core system including a plurality of processor cores, includes, monitoring task execution delay times with respect to tasks respectively assigned to the plurality of processor cores, monitoring core execution delay times with respect to the plurality of processor cores and controlling an operation of the multi-core system based on the task execution delay times and the core execution delay times.

Multi-core system and method of controlling operation of the same

Disclosed is an apparatus for dynamic thermal management, which includes a thermal management unit that determines whether there is a need to perform thermal management on a processor based on temperatures measured from a plurality of temperature sensors included in the processor and generates an indication signal, and a controller that performs the thermal management on the processor in response to the indication signal, by using a first method of adjusting a state of each of a plurality of cores included in the processor, a second method of adjusting a level of an operating voltage and a frequency of a clock signal, which are provided to the processor, and/or a third method for adjusting only the frequency of the clock signal to be provided to the processor, and where each of the plurality of cores is in a wake-up state or an idle state.

Apparatus and method for dynamic thermal management using frequency clamping and idle injection

An apparatus and a method for scheduling a task in an electronic device including a heterogeneous multi-processor are provided. The electronic device includes a memory and a processor operatively connected to the memory and including a plurality of heterogeneous cores. The processor may be configured to identify, when a task to be scheduled occurs, a scheduling group having the task among a plurality of predefined scheduling groups, and to perform scheduling for the task, based on the identified scheduling group having the task and a priority of the task.
