Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) for software defined silicon guardianship are disclosed. An example method for semiconductor feature guardianship includes identifying, with a co-processor of a first semiconductor device, a feature based on a license received via a network from a remote enterprise system, the feature activated on a first semiconductor device based on the license, generating, with the co-processor of the first semiconductor device, a mesh network, the mesh network including a plurality of nodes associated with respective semiconductor devices including the first semiconductor device, the plurality of nodes including a primary node in communication with one or more secondary nodes, and migrating, with the co-processor of the first semiconductor device, the feature from a first secondary node to a second secondary node in response to a feature failure even on the first secondary node, the migration to maintain a feature entitlement associated with the license.
