Abstract
A method and system for adjusting bandwidth within a portable computing device based on danger signals monitored from one on more elements of the portable computing device are disclosed. A danger level of an unacceptable deadline miss (“UDM”) element of the portable computing device may be determined with a danger level sensor within the UDM element. Next, a quality of service (“QoS”) controller may adjust a magnitude for one or more danger levels received based on the UDM element type that generated the danger level and based on a potential fault condition type associated with the particular danger level. The danger levels received from one UDM element may be mapped to at least one of another UDM element and a non-UDM element. A quality of service policy for each UDM element and non-UDM element may be mapped in accordance with the danger levels.
