ABSTRACT:
Some embodiments of the invention may operate to measure a first output performance metric value associated with a current operation frequency of a processor, to set a trial operation frequency of the processor, and to measure a second output performance metric value associated with the trial operation frequency. If the measured performance variation is less than a specified acceptable performance variation, the trial operation frequency may be selected as a subsequent determined operation frequency.
