Patent abstract
Described within is a power management system for a computing platform that provides additional reductions in power consumption from that provided by only periodically putting the CPU or peripheral devices in low power non-operational states. In particular, the embodiment prevents the OS from generating an interrupt due to timer ticks while in a non-C0 state, until such time as a number of timer ticks have been gathered.
