System leveI fnergy and Fower Hanagement
System Level Energy and Power Hanagement
reduces the overall power consumption oI the system [J-N devices]
without losing perIormance Ior users
with the help oI several power saving techniques
The management will be based on EPH Framework, which
deIines the logical components and their roles & Iunctionality
speciIies the interIaces between components
provides the platIorm Ior system level power saving techniques [policies]
increase the amount oI work that the whole system can perIorm per battery charge

fFH Iramework
In Z006 we made
Survey oI existing EPH solutions
EPH Iramework requirements
Based on these we created EPH Framework Logical Architecture, which is
PlatIorm independent
Conceptual Iramework
0eIines the logical components and their roles & Iunctionality
SpeciIies the interIaces between components
Provides the platIorm Ior system level power saving techniques [policies]
Currently we are working on to
Hap the logical architecture to existing Nokia platIorms [Symbian & Linux]
0eveloping intelligent policies on top oI those
9 Z005 Nokia T-JJ0-TJ90.ppt [ Z00T-09-J9 [ PN
fFH Iramework target
Simple, platIorm independent construction
which can easily be implemented on top oI any [Nokia] platIorm
Hust not increase power consumption substantially by itselI
Flexible environment to manage the system behavior
Hultiple independent EPH policies can be active simultaneously
0iIIerent context inIormation can be used Ior the decision making
Easy to add[change[remove EPH policies
Still the outcome must be unambiguous
The system shall increase the amount oI work that the whole system can
perIorm per battery charge
Note: the Iramework will not do this by itselI, but with the help oI intelligent
policies, which will be easy to make and manage on top oI the Iramework

Context denotes any data that is

used in decisions, e.g. EPH proIile,
user preIerences, EPH statistics,
sensor data, etc. Context Honitor is
used to gather all context data.
