Since idle-state is the dominant state for embedded systems, disabling unused devices in
idle-states can lead to significant power reduction. Among the various sleep modes provided …

In heavily duty-cycled embedded systems, the energy consumed by the microcontroller in
idle mode is often the bottleneck for battery lifetime. Existing solutions address this problem …

This article reviews the new low power technology in current microcontrollers, particularly
deep sleep technology. It also reviews the factors that make up power consumption and …

As a means of reducing power consumption, hardware devices are capable to enter into
sleep-states that have low power consumption. Waking up from those states in order to …

More and more services require high real-time per-formance, and to achieve high real-time
performance, a server's power-saving features tend to be disabled to achieve strict latency …

Wearable devices are important components as information collector in many cyber-physical
systems. Energy harvesting instead of battery is a better power source for these wearable …

With progressing CMOS technology miniaturization, the leakage power consumption starts
to dominate the dynamic power consumption. The recent technology trends have equipped …

Idle CPUs may enter power-saving hardware sleeps by, for instance, lowering the operating
voltage and flushing the caches. However, wakeup delays that reach one hundred Secs or …

Short-lived tasks have a large impact on mobile computer's battery life. In executing such
tasks, the whole system transitions in and out of the deep sleep mode. This suspend/resume …
