Embodiment Construction

[0020] The claimed subject matter is now described with reference to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals are generally used to refer to like elements throughout. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of claimed subject matter. It may be evident, however, that claimed subject matter may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to facilitate describing the claimed subject matter.

[0021] Many computing environments can incorporate power saving techniques to reduce power consumption and / or conserve battery life. For example, an operating system may provide a hibernation / sleep policy that may prevent the execution of applications, system processes, and / or processor functions that might otherwise invoke computing resources to perform power-consuming tasks. Unfortunately, many po...

Abstract

One or more techniques and / or techniques are provided for assigning a power management classification to a process, transitioning a computing environment to a connected standby state based on the power management classification assigned to a process, and transitioning the computing environment from a connected standby state to an executing state or system. That is, power management classifications such as exempt, throttling, and / or suspended may be assigned to processes based on various factors, such as whether the process provides desired functionality and / or whether the process provides information on which the basic operation of the computing environment depends. Function. In this manner, the computing environment can be transitioned into a low power connected standby state that continues to perform desired functions while reducing power consumption by suspending and / or throttling other functions. Because some functions may still be executing, the computing environment may transition to an executing state in a responsive manner that quickly provides the most up-to-date information to the user.

Description

Background technique [0001] Many computing devices, such as desktops, laptops, smart phones, and tablet devices, have been developed around saving power consumption and / or extending battery life. For example, the laptop screen may be dimmed if the laptop has been idle for a set period of time. Power saving may provide extended operation and / or time between (re)charging a computing device, which may be desirable and convenient for a user. Unfortunately, many applications may not include power-saving features, and may, by not taking the hardware out of high-power states and / or Or significantly diminish power savings and / or have poor power "hygiene" by utilizing resources. [0002] Many power saving techniques may degrade the user experience with the computing device because transitioning the computing device from a low-power state, such as a sleep / sleep state, to an executing state may require user input, take a relatively long amount of time, and / or Serves stale data until r...
