Abstract
Various embodiments of methods and systems for optimizing processing performance in a multi-functional portable computing device ('PCD') are disclosed. Depending on how the PCD is being used, the temperature limit associated with the touch temperature of the PCD may be variable. As such, a preset and fixed touch temperature limit based on a 'worst use case' scenario can unnecessarily limit the quality of service (“QoS”) provided to a user under different use case scenarios. Accordingly, embodiments of the systems and methods define and recognize different device definitions for the PCD which are each associated with certain use cases and each dictate different temperature thresholds or limits subject to which the PCD may run.
