  • Abstract
    Deeply embedded systems are designed to perform a certain set of tasks, and present limitations regarding processing and memory capabilities. In many cases, these systems are powered by batteries, requiring efficient power management. In this paper, we present a dynamic power manager with no significant overhead to the application. This manager uses the power management infrastructures present in the EPOS operating system, and is able to save power in different application scenarios.
