Abstract

In an asymmetric multi-CPU system on which a plurality of type of CPUs with different data processing performance and power consumption are mounted in groups for each type, a plurality of forms of combination of the types and numbers of CPUs are defined in such a way that the maximum numbers of the overall data processing and power consumption very by stages. Then, the system performs a control of allocation of the data processing to the CPU identified by the form selected from the definition information according to the data processing environment, in order to reduce unnecessary power consumption according to the data processing environment, such as data processing load, and to easily achieve the required data processing performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an asymmetrical multi-CPU (Central Processing Unit) system and to a scaling method therein, for example, to a technology that contributes to extending battery driving time by being applied to a portable information terminal device. Background technique [0002] As a technology for extending battery driving time while ensuring high data processing performance, there is a technology described in Patent Document 1. In this technology, in addition to the first CPU that performs data processing, a second CPU with lower peak performance and higher power efficiency than the first CPU is installed, and the load is monitored by using the second CPU. In some cases, the processing is executed by the first CPU, and when the load is small, the processing is executed by the second CPU instead of the first CPU. Thereby, leakage current during system operation is reduced according to the state of the load or temperature change. [00...
