ABSTRACT:
Power consumption in a system is monitored by a controller. The controller uses a power consumption policy to determine when the power consumption of the system needs to be adjusted. Adjustment is made by gradually reducing power consumptions of one or more components in the system or allowing the one or more components to gradually increase the power consumption.
