Abstract

A computer-implemented method of controlling power consumption in a multi-processor computing device comprises determining a first value for a first power setting associated with a first processor based on a sound level generated by the multi-processor computing device; determining a second value for the first power setting based on a power consumption level of the multi-processor computing device; comparing the first value to the second value; and causing the first processor to perform one or more operations based on the lesser of the first value and the second value.
