A computing device is provided which comprises memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to autonomously acquire input parameter values, comprising one of monitored device input parameter values from a component of the computing device and monitored user input parameter values. The processor is also configured to select, from a plurality of modes of operation, a mode of operation comprising parameter settings which are determined based on the acquired input parameter values, each of the plurality of modes of operation comprising different parameter settings configured to control the computing device to operate at a different level of performance. The processor is also configured to control operation of the computing device by tuning the parameter settings of the computing device according to the selected mode of operation comprising the determined parameter settings.

System agnostic autonomous system state management

An electronic device includes a memory and a processor. The processor acquires a platform management profile, the platform management profile including information defining one or more platform management policies. The processor provides the platform management profile to platform management drivers executing on one or more electronic devices, the platform management profile being configured so that each of the platform management drivers can extract the one or more platform management policies from the platform management profile and use the one or more platform management policies for controlling operating states of elements (e.g., functional blocks, devices, etc.) of the respective electronic device.

Providing platform management profiles to platform management drivers on electronic devices

An electronic device includes a memory and a processor. The processor receives a platform management profile that includes information defining one or more platform management policies, a given platform management policy among the one or more platform management policies including a provided input from a specified hardware or software sensor and/or a provided output action. The processor uses the given platform management policy for controlling operating states of elements in the electronic device.

Provided inputs and provided output actions for use in platform management policies for platform management drivers

An electronic device includes an accelerated processing unit (APU) and multiple elements. The APU performs operations for a platform boost and throttle (PBT) controller. For the operations, the APU receives a platform electrical power limit, the platform electrical power limit being a limit on a total electrical power allowed to be consumed by a group of the elements at a given time. The APU then determines a present platform electrical power consumption. The APU next adjusts one or more operating parameters for specified elements from among the group of elements to control electrical power consumption by the specified elements based on a relationship between the present platform electrical power consumption and the platform electrical power limit.
