Abstract

Methods and systems for facilitating improved power consumption control of a plurality of processing cores are disclosed. The methods improve the power consumption control by performing power throttling based on a determined excess power consumption. The methods include the steps of: monitoring using at least one event count component in the respective processing core a plurality of distributed events; calculating an accumulated weighted sum of the distributed events from the event count component; determining an excess power consumption by comparing the accumulated weighted sum with a threshold power value; and adjusting power consumption of the respective processing core based on the determined excess power consumption.
