While most multi-core processors group together sets of identical cores to provide enhanced computing power (a model that has worked fine for PCs), ARM has developed a new approach dubbed big.LITTLE processing. With mobile devices and power savings in mind, the concept pairs up the high-performance of the Cortex-A15 core with the power saving Cortex-A7. The result is a chip that can switch between the two depending on system needs. This very concept may find its way into Samsung’s next update to their Exynos CPU.
