Hello, =


As a Final Project to the Diploma in Computer Systems I'm researching ways =
to improve =

power savings consumption on idle systems. We're aiming to improve the usag=
e of =

low power states on the processor (Px and Cx states on ACPI jargon) mainly =
on x86 =

computers, but when possible all improvements will be done architecture ind=
ependent.

We have been thinking of direct improvements (p.e. better algorithms for CP=
U =

frequency/state management) and indirect improvements, things like dynticks =

or trying the reduce the USB poll rate.

Currently I'm writting a list of proposals, and as far as I want to do some =

useful work I ask you if there is any new feature or improvement that would=
 be welcomed.

Any suggestion will be added to the proposals list to be reviewed.

Thank you in advance!
