Abstract
This chapter begins by considering idleness and the challenges involved in detecting idle periods. We focus on managing power state transitions for a single device, exploiting the idle time offered by the access pattern for the device. We describe examples of policies that, given a workload, answer the questions of when to power down to a lower power state and when to power back up to a higher power state. Finally, we consider techniques for enhancing idle periods in order to improve the behavior of transition-based policies.
