Core research contribution · THM

Hardware managementthat understandsdeveloper intent.

A root-privileged C++17 daemon that classifies developer workloads and continuously orchestrates CPU, memory, I/O and process state from live system context.

01 / Context engine

Three signals.
One confident decision.

THM fuses behavioral and semantic evidence instead of trusting a binary name or focused window.
01

Process topology

Parent/child relationships, command lines and active process trees.

02

Workspace context

Hyprland workspaces reveal which project is active, protected or idle.

03

Project semantics

Filesystem markers identify web, Android and systems workloads.

02 / Adaptive policies

Resources follow
the work.

Workspace state becomes a policy decision that can be inspected, measured and reversed.
ACTIVE820

Full CPU weight and responsive I/O for work visible on any monitor.

cpu.weight = 820
PROTECTED420

Build daemons, language servers and long-running tasks remain alive.

cpu.weight = 420
FREEZEABLE100

Inactive non-daemon processes can be suspended and restored safely.

cpu.weight = 100

03 / Control loop

Observe. Classify.
Apply. Verify.
