To save energy, many power management policies rely on issuing mode-change commands to the components of the system. Efforts to date have focused on how these policies interact wi...
Reducing power consumption has become a major challenge in the design and operation of today's computer systems. This chapter describes different techniques addressing this c...
As the hardware and software complexity grows, it is unlikely for the power management hardware/software to have a full observation of the entire system status. In this paper, we ...
The power consumption of peripheral devices is a significant portion of the overall energy usage of a mobile platform. To take advantage of idle times, most devices offer the abi...
Because of its small form factor, high capacity, and expected low cost, MEMS-based storage is a suitable storage technology for mobile systems. MEMS-based storage devices should a...
