Techniques for adaptive demand/response power management. Power consumption and battery charge level of a platform having a battery with a smart power module are monitored. Information indicating the power consumption and battery charge level for the platform is provided to a remote demand/response management device. The remote demand/response management device and the smart power module receive a command to modify one or more power consumption characteristics of the platform. The one or more power consumption characteristics of the platform are to be changed in response to the command.

Techniques for adaptive demand/response energy management of electronic systems

Techniques for energy consumption monitoring and analysis. Energy consumption of one or more energy consuming devices corresponding to a user is monitored. User profile information and user statistical information is utilized to analyze the monitored energy consumption to generate a personal energy usage profile for the user. The personal energy usage profile is transmitted to a computing platform associated with the user.

Techniques for utilizing energy usage information

Methods and apparatus for correlating physical and logical attributes of devices include associating logical-tags (L-tags) and physical-tags (P-tags) with electronic devices. A P-tag includes a P-tag identifier, which can be read by a P-tag reading device, regardless of whether power is applied to the electronic device. In one embodiment, a system includes a P-tag comprising a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag having a non-volatile memory to store physical and logical attribute information; and an electronic device associated with the RFID tag, the electronic device having a processor and a bus, and being communicatively coupled to the RFID tag over the bus, the processor to execute instructions to read information from and write information to the non-volatile memory of the RFID tag.

Method and apparatus for RFID tag wherein memory of RFID tag is partitioned into two sections for reading using wireless interface and writing using bus

Methods and apparatus for correlating physical and logical attributes of devices include associating logical-tags (L-tags) and physical-tags (P-tags) with target devices. A P-tag includes a P-tag identifier, which can be read by a P-tag reading device, regardless of whether power is applied to the target device. The P-tag identifier and other information can be sent to an asset manager, which can determine a location of the device. An L-tag includes an L-tag identifier and may include other L-tag information describing logical attributes of the device. The L-tag information also can be sent to an asset manager. The asset manager maintains a tracking record for the device, which may include the P-tag identifier, the L-tag identifier, information regarding the asset's logical attributes, and information regarding the asset's physical attributes. By maintaining similar tracking records for a plurality of devices, the asset manager can track and manage the plurality of devices.
