Abstract

A method for managing a profile includes generating an initial profile of code using an initial sampling frequency. An information entropy value of the profile is computed. A representative profile of the code is determined from additional profiles using a sampling frequency determined from the information entropy value. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
