Abstract

Embodiments are directed to a method of optimizing power consumption in an electrical device. The method includes receiving, by a processor, instructions to enter a wait state, and identifying, by the processor, a parameter associated with the instructions to enter a wait state. The method continues with initiating, by the processor, instructions to enter a low-power mode based on the parameter, initiating, by the processor, instructions to exit a low-power mode based on the parameter, and providing, via a user interface, a user with notice of a current state of the processor. The parameter includes runtime information, instructional information, and scheduled operations.
