SystemC Analysis of a New Dynamic Power Management Architecture

This paper presents a new dynamic power management architecture of a System on Chip. The Power State Machine describing the status of the core follows the recommendations of the ACPI standard. The algorithm controls the power states of each block on the basis of battery status, chip temperature and a user defined task priority.
