Linux power management and Intel Atom webinar
July 28th, 2008On Wednesday, July 30 - 11:30am Pacific / 2:30pm Eastern I’m presenting a webinar with Intel’s Kaitlin Murphy on Linux power management and the Intel Atom processor. I hope you’ll consider attending. You can register at Linux Webinars.
As always I’m still hacking away on the agenda with Kaitlin but here is what should be in the final presentation:
- Why care about power management… perspective from the retail POS industry
- Power management as a system level design objective
- ACPI and cpufreq in the Linux kernel
- The Intel Atom processor
- Enhanced Intel Speed Step technology
- Deep Power Down technology
- Dynamic cache sizing
- A five step homework assignment for power management
- Recommended reading
The webinar will help establish the fundamentals of power management and the techniques that can be used to exploit power management capabilities in the underlying Intel Atom hardware.
