Abstract

Various embodiments comprise prioritizing frequency allocations in thermally- or power-constrained computing devices. Computer elements may be assigned ‘weights’ based on their priorities. The computer elements with higher weights may receive higher frequency allocations to assure they receive priority in processing more quickly. The computer elements with lower weights may receive lower frequency allocations and suffer a slowdown in their processing. Elements with the same weight may be grouped together for the purpose of frequency allocation.
