ABSTRACT:
Methods, apparatuses, and systems are presented for dynamically overclocking a processor comprising operating the processor at a clock rate to run an executable program by using the processor to carry out a plurality of instructions associated with the executable program, while the processor is running the executable program, repeatedly monitoring at least one activity measure associated with a specific operation of the processor, wherein the at least one activity measure is generated from within the processor, evaluating the at least one activity measure to determine whether a predefined condition representing processor activity level is met, and, if the predefined condition is met, dynamically adjusting the clock rate of the processor to modify execution speed at which the processor carries out instructions.
