Abstract
As computing becomes more pervasive across an ever-increasing array of devices and as more complex solutions are integrated in silicon, the role of intelligent firmware is becoming ever more critical for enabling and unleashing advanced platform capabilities. In this paper we present platform power/thermal autonomics function as an OS independent EFI client that interacts with the power and thermal sensors within a system that can stress the system, provide data-telemetry channel, regress and synthesize the power/performance equations in a controlled environment.
