Abstract
The embodiments described herein relate to dynamically detecting a frequency change condition for microprocessor performance. An instruction is received, and a frequency change condition associated with the received instruction is dynamically detected. A frequency modulation is performed in response to the dynamic detection. The frequency modulation includes selecting a second frequency for optimal instruction processing different from a first frequency, the first frequency being a default operating frequency of the microprocessor. Execution of the instruction is completed at the second frequency. Accordingly, incoming execution instructions are logically analyzed, and the processor frequency is selectively modified based on associated instruction conditions.
