Abstract

A multicore processor system includes multiple processors; a device; a memory that stores information of voltage and clock frequency for minimizing power consumption in connection with a number of the processors accessing to the device; and a power control unit that controls the voltage and the clock frequency of the processors on the basis of the information stored in the memory if the number of the processors accessing to the device changes.
