Abstract

Dynamic power management of integrated devices can be accomplished using game theory. In an example, power demands for individual devices (e.g., CPU, GPU, communications, etc.) can be controlled by governors. An engine can determine a system condition (e.g., docked or undocked) and use a reward and/or penalty matrix to determine power settings to provide to governors. Periodically, the engine can reevaluate the system condition and power settings for the governors. For example, device components can be modeled as players in a game. In the case of idle power management scenarios, the players can deploy cooperative gaming strategy to allow the system to be in a low power state.
