Abstract
Method for managing electric power consumption. In particular, the present invention relates to optimizing power consumption in a collision-free manner while modifying power consumption states in a device comprising a plurality of modules requiring electric power. Accordingly, there is present an additional module called an arbitrator module (or otherwise negotiator or supervisor). This module accepts requests for changing a state of power consumption (for example in order to minimize power consumption when not in active use) and negotiates conditions of changing to that state of power consumption with all registered modules.
