Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to monitor and manage usage of resources on a computing platform. An example apparatus includes a processor and a subsystem. The example processor includes a modified operating system, the operating system modified to monitor application execution via the processor to determine a usage scenario for the apparatus. The example processor includes an index generator to generate a system usage scenario index quantifying a snapshot of the usage scenario for the processor and the subsystem of the apparatus. The example processor includes a rebalancer to reallocate resources of at least one of the processor or the subsystem based on the system usage scenario index.
Claims6
An apparatus comprising:
- a monitoring means to monitor application execution to determine a usage scenario for a computing platform, the computing platform including a processor and a subsystem;
- an index generating means to generate a system usage scenario index representative of the usage scenario for the processor and the subsystem of the computing platform;
- and
- a rebalancing means to, based on the system usage scenario index, reallocate resources of at least one of the processor or the subsystem.
A power and thermal management system comprising:
- memory circuitry;
- instructions;
- and
- processor circuitry including:
- an index generator to generate a system usage scenario index representative of a usage scenario for the processor and a subsystem in communication with the processor, the usage scenario based on monitoring information obtained from an operating system;
- and
- a rebalancer to reallocate resources of at least one of the processor or the subsystem based on the system usage scenario index.
