Reduction of memory power consumption in virtual memory systems that have a combination of different types of physical memory devices working together in a system's primary memory to achieve performance with optimum reductions in power consumption by storing in the virtual memory in the kernel, topology data for each of the different memory devices used.

Management to reduce power consumption in virtual memory provided by plurality of different types of memory devices

Reducing virtual memory power consumption during idle states in virtual memory systems comprising tracking the topology of the system memory by the system hypervisor and operating system running on any selected virtual machine hosted by the system hypervisor. The idle states in the system memory are dynamically monitored and then the power consumption states in the system memory are dynamically reduced through the interaction of the hypervisor and the operation system running on the selected virtual machine.
