Coordinating power management functions in a multi-media device
First Claim
1. A method for power management in a multimedia device including one or more multimedia processors, the method comprising:
- obtaining an amount of available power for execution of a service requiring at least one of the one or more multi-media processors;
determining, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power-management functions in the at least one of the one or more multi-media processors; and
coordinating execution of the one or more power-management functions in the at least one of the one or more multi-media processors based upon the configuration information.

Abstract
In general, this disclosure relates to techniques for dynamically determining configuration information (e.g., for processing video data) and coordinating execution of power management functions based upon an available amount of power for execution of a multi-media service. One example method includes the following features: obtaining an amount of available power for execution of a service requiring multi-media resources within a multi-media device; determining, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for execution of one or more power management functions in one or more multi-media resources of the multi-media device; and coordinating the execution of the one or more power management functions in the one or more multi-media resources based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device.

12. A multi-media device, comprising:
-
one or more multi-media processors; and one or more power-management entities executed by the one or more multi-media processors to; obtain an amount of available power in the multi-media device for execution of a service requiring one or more of the multi-media processors; determine, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power management functions in the one or more multi-media processors; and coordinate execution of the one or more power management functions in the one or more multi-media processors based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A computer-readable medium comprising instructions for causing one or more processors to:
-
obtain an amount of available power for execution of a service requiring at least one of multiple multi-media processors within a multi-media device; determine, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power management functions in the at least one of multiple multi-media processors of the multi-media device; and coordinate execution of the one or more power management functions in the at least one of multiple multi-media processors based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
