METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING POWER EFFICIENCY IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING HETEROGENEOUS MULTICORE PROCESSOR

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for improving power efficiency in an electronic device using a heterogeneous multicore processor, the method comprising the steps of: when a message transfer event occurs from a first core processor to a second core processor, Storing a message to be transmitted from the first core processor to the second core processor in a buffer when the second core processor is in an idle state; Driving a timer based on a possible delay time and transmitting at least one message in the buffer to the second core processor when the timer expires.
