Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts energy consumption by varying clock speed and voltage based on actual computational needs. When large data amounts require higher processing performance, the system temporarily increases energy consumption but only to the extent necessary, then reduces it when demand decreases. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction between maintaining high computational speed and minimizing energy consumption.
