ABSTRACT:
In a system, method and apparatus for the frequency management of processors in a multi-processor (MP) computer system, a first processor requiring a first level of performance is operated at a specific frequency and consumes a portion of the thermal and power budget. A second processor requiring a second level of performance is operated at a second specific frequency and consumes a portion of the thermal and power budget. The overall power and thermal budget in the multi-processor computer system is maintained under the different operating frequencies.
