Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method for dynamically scaling the bandwidth of an external memory by activating or deactivating a plurality of input and output terminals provided in the external memory, respectively, based on a dynamic context of a processor. According to one aspect, a method for adjusting memory bandwidth includes collecting information that indicates a dynamic context of a processor, determining the dynamic context of the processor based on the collected information, and dynamically scaling bandwidth by activating or deactivating at least some of a plurality of input and output terminals based on the determined dynamic context.
