Zusammenfassung:On-chip software-based activity monitoring is implemented to configure hardware-based activity throttling. A software-based activity monitor implemented on an integrated circuit obtains data from on-chip components to determine throttling modifications for a processing engine of the integrated circuit. The throttling modifications are applied to throttling criteria that is used by a hardware-based activity monitor on the integrated circuit which is responsible for directly evaluating and throttling processing at the processing engine of the integrated circuit.
