  • Patent number: 9740272
    Abstract: A hard drive energy-saving control method is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining a historical working state of a hard drive in each preset time segment, where each preset time segment is each preset time segment in at least one statistic period; predicting a working state of the hard drive in a next time segment of the current time segment according to the historical working state of the hard drive; and selecting a corresponding energy-saving policy level according to the working state of the hard drive in the next time segment, and performing energy-saving control on the hard drive. Embodiments of the present invention solve the technical problem in the prior art that energy consumption of a hard drive is not correlated with actual service access traffic and the energy-saving efficiency is not optimum. The embodiments of the present invention improve the energy-saving efficiency of the hard drive.

  • Patent number: 9563257
    Abstract: The present disclosure is applicable to the field of device energy-saving control, and provides a dynamic energy-saving method and apparatus for a PCIE device, and a communication system thereof. The method includes: obtaining a system energy-saving policy; and using a PCIE energy-saving module to control a PCIE device and a PCIE link to enter a corresponding linkage energy-saving state according to the obtained system energy-saving policy. In the present disclosure, a “D” state of a PCIE device is associated with an “L” state of a link into a new linkage energy-saving state, and the device and the link are controlled to enter the corresponding linkage energy-saving state according to a preset energy-saving policy, thereby improving energy-saving efficiency.
