Abstract
A system is presented that is configured to reduce power consumption when performing processing tasks. The system includes a first processing entity capable of performing a set of operations, and a second processing entity configured to consume less power than the first processing entity and capable of performing a subset of operations that is part of the set of operations. During system operation, the second processing entity is configured to perform the subset of operations instead of the first processing entity.
