Abstract

An electronic device includes a processing component and a task manager. The processing component is configurable for one of a single-core processing mode and a multi-core processing mode. The task manager determines a number of tasks running on the electronic device. The processor is configured to switch between either the single-core processing mode or the multi-core processing mode as a function of the number of tasks.
