Abstract: Embodiments of methods and apparatus to operate transceiver systems of a wireless platform are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Some embodiments involve determination of a first characteristic associated with a first interface displayed by a display, and determination of a second characteristic associated with a second interface displayed by the display. Embodiments may further involve determination of a first power consumption mode for the first interface based at least on the first characteristic, and determination of a second power consumption mode for the second interface based at least on the second characteristic, wherein the first power consumption mode is different from the second power consumption mode.

Abstract: A system and associated methods for network aware, dynamic power management are generally described herein.

Abstract: Actual power savings achieved by using a power savings mode in a communications device may be increased by analyzing the effects of the power savings mode on delays and using the analysis on which to base a decision as to whether or not to enter the power savings mode.

Abstract: Techniques for profiling systems, such as mobile or embedded devices, are provided. The techniques can profile code executing on these systems based on power used by that code. The system may profile power usage for the entire system or a subsystem, component, or functional unit thereof, for example. The system may determine when a specified amount of power has been used, and a performance sampler may then temporarily stop execution of the code and sample state data. This sampled state data may be provided to a performance analyzer that determines performance of the executing code.

Abstract: Conflict resolution during data synchronization may be improved by sending an update version along with a synchronization request to a user having previously received a different update version from the user.

Abstract: Priority-based data synchronization may be used to achieve improved flexibility and functionality.

Abstract: An apparatus and method to determine whether to permit use of a local resource by a remote device via a wireless personal area network based on rules associated with power availability of the local device is described. The apparatus and the method may determine whether to use a remote resource of the remote device via the wireless personal area network based on rules associated with power availability of the local device is described.
