System-level dynamic power management

We introduce the design methodology known as dynamic power management (DPM), targeting the maximization of power efficiency under performance constraints for electronic systems. We first describe the basic motivations for implementing DPM, then we survey several power management schemes. Finally, we provide guidelines to assessing the potential impact of a DPM scheme for a given target system.
