This document discusses power scheduling algorithms and techniques for power optimization in multi-core processors. It first introduces dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) as an efficient method for providing sufficient energy to cores that need it, but notes it is lacking when implemented under design constraints. Several papers are then summarized that propose and analyze different approaches for improving power delivery and regulation in multi-core systems, including using low dropout regulators (LDOs), decoupling capacitors, power gating, and switched capacitor converters to reduce power consumption and improve efficiency. The goal is to develop computer-aided design (CAD) methodologies for efficient power delivery in on-chip processors.
