Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method and system for hybrid and/or distributed implementation of generation and/or execution of power profile management instructions. An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a hardware element of a SoC/NoC that can be configured to generate and/or execute power profile management instructions using a hybrid combination of software and hardware, wherein the hardware element can be run in parallel with other hardware elements of the SoC/NoC to generate and execute power profile management instructions for different segments or regions of the SoC/NoC for efficient and safe working thereof.
