Quality of Service-Aware Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling for Embedded GPUs

Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) is a key technique for reducing processor power consumption in mobile devices. In recent years, mobile system-on-chips (SoCs) has supported DVFS for embedded graphics processing units (GPUs) as the processing power of embedded GPUs has been increasing steadlily. The major challenge of applying DVFS to a processing unit is to meet the quality of serv…
