Abstract

In a particular embodiment, an apparatus is disclosed that includes at least one controllable energy consuming module and a prediction engine. The prediction engine includes detection logic configured to determine a historical usage pattern of the at least one controllable energy consuming module, prediction logic configured to create a prediction rule that predicts future usage of the at least one controllable energy consuming module based on the historical usage pattern, control logic configured to selectively control an energy level of the at least one controllable energy consuming module based on the prediction rule, and learning logic configured to update the prediction logic in response to detecting usage of the at least one controllable energy consuming module in a manner that differs from the usage predicted by the prediction rule.
