Enhanced Thermal Management for Improved Module Reliability
First Claim
1. A method, in a data processing system, for mitigating effects of delamination of components in the data processing system, the method comprising:
- receiving a signal from one or more sensors in the data processing system;
determining if the signal indicates that one threshold in a plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded;
responsive to the signal indicating that one threshold in the plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded, determining if the one threshold is a low temperature threshold or a high temperature threshold;
responsive to the one threshold being a low temperature threshold, initiating one of a plurality of actions to increase a temperature of the data processing system thereby mitigating effects of delamination of the components in the data processing system.

Abstract
Mitigating effects of delamination of components in the data processing system is provided. A signal is received from one or more sensors in the data processing system. A determination is made as to whether the signal indicates that one threshold in a plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded. Responsive to the signal indicating that one threshold in the plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded, a determination is made as to whether the one threshold is a low temperature threshold or a high temperature threshold. Responsive to the one threshold being a low temperature threshold, one of a plurality of actions is initiated to increase a temperature of the data processing system thereby mitigating effects of delamination of the components in the data processing system.

11. A computer program product comprising a computer recordable medium having a computer readable program recorded thereon, wherein the computer readable program, when executed on a computing device, causes the computing device to:
-
receive a signal from one or more sensors in a data processing system; determine if the signal indicates that one threshold in a plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded; responsive to the signal indicating that one threshold in the plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded, determine if the one threshold is a low temperature threshold or a high temperature threshold; responsive to the one threshold being a low temperature threshold, initiate one of a plurality of actions to increase a temperature of the data processing system thereby mitigating effects of delamination of the components in the data processing system. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory comprises instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to; receive a signal from one or more sensors in a data processing system; determine if the signal indicates that one threshold in a plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded; responsive to the signal indicating that one threshold in the plurality of thresholds has been reached or exceeded, determine if the one threshold is a low temperature threshold or a high temperature threshold; responsive to the one threshold being a low temperature threshold, initiate one of a plurality of actions to increase a temperature of the data processing system thereby mitigating effects of delamination of the components in the data processing system. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
