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.

Optimization of Quality of Service in Wireless Sensor Networks Powered by Solar Cells

TL;DR: A novel concept of QoS is introduced, which is measured in terms of sampling frequency, and a mean to maximize the QoS, i.e. the extent of the period in which the sensor operates at the user's desired sampling frequency is provided.

Low-Complexity Policies for Energy-Performance Tradeoff in Chip-Multi-Processors

TL;DR: This work considers multi-task CMP applications with unknown workloads, and dynamically set workpoints to minimize PEs' frequency-voltage workpoints, and compares these policies to a theoretical bound and shows that they achieve good results with low complexity.
