Description

Abstract

There have been numerous OS-level power management techniques, but most of them are not so realistic unfortunately (eg. too complicated to adopt or potential gain is marginal). On the other hand, power management techniques in off-the-shelf mobile devices are very basic such as changing frequency and voltage by looking at core frequency. In this talk, I will introduce smart OS-level power management techniques, which can be applicable to real mobile devices. My talk is composed of five parts as follows: 1) user-aware power management for display, 2) profile based DVFS for APs, 3) cost table based DVFS for APs, 4) thermal-aware DVFS for APs, and 5) battery-aware DVFS for APs. (All the results shown in this talk are based on real measurement (not simulation))
