Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel

OSPM Summit - V edition

The V edition of the Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel (OSPM) Summit aims at fostering discussions on power management and (real-time) scheduling techniques. Summit will be held in Ancona (Italy) on April 17-19, 2023.

Although scheduler techniques for reducing energy consumption while meeting performance and latency requirements are the prime interest of the summit, we welcome anybody interested in having discussions on the broader scope of real-time systems, real-time and non-real-time scheduling, tooling, debugging and tracing.
