  • Patent number: 9134784
    Abstract: Systems, methods and products are described that provide predictive power state transitions for information handling devices. One aspect includes ascertaining a power state transitioning pattern of an information handling device; responsive to a power state transition to a first lower power state at the information handling device, performing an additional power state transition to automatically transition the information handling device to a second lower power state, the second lower power state being a lower power state relative to the first lower power state; and proactively resuming the information handling device to the first lower power state responsive to a timing threshold being met; wherein the timing threshold is determined based on the power state transitioning pattern ascertained. Other embodiments are described.
