TLDR
Dynamic power management (DPM) is a design methodology for dynamically reconfiguring systems to provide the requested services and performance levels with a minimum number of active components or a minimum load on such components as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
Dynamic power management (DPM) is a design methodology for dynamically reconfiguring systems to provide the requested services and performance levels with a minimum number of active components or a minimum load on such components. DPM encompasses a set of techniques that achieves energy-efficient computation by selectively turning off (or reducing the performance of) system components when they are idle (or partially unexploited). In this paper, we survey several approaches to system-level dynamic power management. We first describe how systems employ power-manageable components and how the use of dynamic reconfiguration can impact the overall power consumption. We then analyze DPM implementation issues in electronic systems, and we survey recent initiatives in standardizing the hardware/software interface to enable software-controlled power management of hardware components.

Analysis of meta-heuristics performance in energy aware scheduling of real-time embedded systems

TL;DR: This work extends on the previous work by adapting two evolutionary algorithms for system-wide energy minimisation and shows that the meta-heuristics improve on previous work and are three times more likely to reach near-optimal energy savings.

Energy-efficient co-scheduling of receiving packets and decoding tasks on mobile video streaming terminals

TL;DR: This co-scheduling scheme makes full use of the cooperativity between video packet receiving and decoding tasks in a dynamic environment where the computational complexity of the video decoding varies with the video scene changing and wireless network communication bandwidth also varies with time.
