Classification: CPC G  Y | IPC G

Claim 13:
14. A non-transitory computer-accessible storage medium having programming instructions stored therein that, in response to execution by a computer system, causes the computer system to perform operations comprising:
initializing a power management controller included in an integrated circuit;
determining a threshold value based on a value of a power supply signal coupled to a particular processor cluster of one or more processor clusters included in the integrated circuit;
in response to receiving a particular signal, monitoring an aggregate temperature of the integrated circuit;
generating a comparison of the aggregate temperature of the integrated circuit to the threshold value; and
in response to determining the comparison indicates that the aggregate temperature of the integrated circuit is less than the threshold value, transitioning the particular processor cluster from a current power state to a new power state, wherein an operating frequency of the processor cluster in the new power state is reduced relative to the current power state.
