Abstract:
Described herein are various embodiments of reducing dynamic power consumption within a processor device. One embodiment provides a technique for dynamic link width reduction based on the instantaneous throughput demand for client of an interconnect fabric. One embodiment provides for a parallel processor comprising an interconnect fabric including a dynamic bus module to configure a bus width for a client of the interconnect fabric based on throughput demand from the client.
