Abstract
Techniques for inducing heterogeneous microprocessor behavior using non-uniform cooling are described. According to an embodiment, a device is provided that comprises an IC chip comprising a plurality of cores and a cooling apparatus coupled to the integrated chip that cools the integrated chip in association with electrical operation of the plurality of cores. The cooling apparatus cools a first core of the plurality of cores to a lower temperature than a second core of the plurality of cores. In various embodiments, the cooling apparatus comprises a plurality of channels embedded within the integrated chip and the cooling apparatus cools the integrated chip via flow of liquid coolant through the plurality of channels.
