Abstract
A computing system comprises one or more multicore processor(s) comprising a set of multiple processing units each operable at a variable frequency, and a main memory operable at a variable frequency. A feedback controller is configured to control the frequency of each processing unit of the set and the frequency of the main memory dependent on a measure representative of a current performance of an application running on one or more of the multiple processing units of the set.
