==METHODS AND APPARATUS TO MANAGE WORKLOADS FOR AN OPERATING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18396350 titled 'METHODS AND APPARATUS TO MANAGE WORKLOADS FOR AN OPERATING SYSTEM

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a system for managing workloads in an operating system by comparing performance metrics of tasks executed with different processor core configurations and selecting the optimal configuration based on the comparison.

* The system causes programmable circuitry to execute a task with a first processor core configuration, then with a second configuration, and compares performance metrics of each execution.
* Based on the comparison, the system selects either the first or second processor core configuration to be used for future task executions.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in:
* Cloud computing environments
* High-performance computing systems

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses issues such as:
* Optimizing performance of tasks in a multi-core processor system
* Efficiently managing workloads in an operating system

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:
* Improved performance of tasks
* Enhanced efficiency in workload management

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
"Optimizing Processor Core Configurations for Improved Task Performance"

== Possible Prior Art ==
No prior art is known at this time.

== Unanswered Questions ==
=== How does this technology impact energy consumption in a system? ===
This article does not address the potential impact on energy efficiency.

=== Can this system adapt to changing workload demands in real-time? ===
The article does not specify if the system can dynamically adjust processor core configurations based on changing workload requirements.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Systems, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed to manage workloads for an operating system wherein it causes programmable circuitry to cause a task of a workload to be executed with a first processor core configuration; cause the task to be executed with a second processor core configuration; compare a first performance metric of the execution of the task with the first processor core configuration to a second performance metric of the execution with the second processor core configuration; and cause to be used one of the first processor core configuration or the second processor core configuration based on the comparison.
