Integration of these techniques into hardware/software architectures
Power management techniques in system on chips

To illustrate the use of some of the techniques described, we take the example of the OMAP^TM4470 circuit from Texas Instruments, part of the OMAP4 family. This is a highly structured architecture designed to control and optimize power and energy consumption for mobile applications requiring a significant level of performance. This architecture contains processing, storage and communication units adapted to the functionalities/applications potentially integrated into this type of equipment. It also contains numerous mechanisms for reducing power and energy consumption. OMAP4 was developed using...
