SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTELLIGENT THERMAL MANAGEMENT IN A SYSTEM ON A CHIP HAVING A HETEROGENEOUS CLUSTER ARCHITECTURE

摘要

Various embodiments of methods and systems for intelligent thermal power management implemented in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. To mitigate or alleviate unwanted workload migration that could exacerbate a thermal energy generation event in a processing component having heterogeneous processing core clusters, embodiments of the solution apply mitigation measures in a predetermined order to the large cluster before applying any thermal mitigation measures to the small cluster.
