We'll be in The Rideau Suite in Les-Suites
Tuesday July 22nd 8:30-18:30.

Thanks to HP for sponsoring
lunch at 12:30 as well as snacks at 10:00 and 15:30.
We'll wing it for dinner.

On linux-pm (sorry, on sabbatical I've been
bad about keeping up on email) I've seen
intent to attend from:

Len Brown <[email protected]>
Alan Stern <[email protected]>
Dipankar Sarma <[email protected]>
Rafael J. Wysocki <[email protected]>
"Woodruff, Richard" <[email protected]>
Vaidyanathan Srinivasan <[email protected]>
Matt Domsch <[email protected]>
Jarod Wilson <[email protected]>
Tim Bird <[email protected]>
Paul Mundt <[email protected]>
Hiroyuki Machida <[email protected]>

Several send their regrets:
Dave Jones
Pavel Machek
Arjan van de Ven

If you plan to attend, please let me know,
because the folks at OLS want to know,
to simplify OLS registration.

thanks,
-Len

We are again planning a Linux Power Management Mini-Summit preceding OLS.
This year we are looking at a single day, Tuesday July 22nd.

OLS is generously supporting mini-summits by providing the room
and projector: http://www.linuxsymposium.org/2008/minisummits.php

If you are interested in sponsoring the food or
other forum needs, please let me know.

Minutes from last year's meeting can be found here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/249019

If you have feedback on last year's meeting that
we can use to improve this year's, please speak up.

The feedback at the time was pretty positive, so I'm thinking
that unless there are new best-known-methods, that we'll stick
with the same open method of self-nominated attendees,
an agenda provoked by discussion on linux-pm ahead of time
and consensus of attendees, and a forum small enough to support
a single focused discussion.

(yes, one improvement I plan on this year is to publish minutes immediately.
OLS was sort of hectic for me last year and that caused a delay)

thanks,
-Len

Hi Len,
I would like to attend the pm-mini summit if there's a slot available. I
am interested in discussing:

a) the improvements to idle load balancing
algorithm on multi-node multi-core systems, for better power savings.

b) Use of some kind of light-weight CPU-Hotplug for power-management
on server systems.

Step one, fix cpu hotplug not to eat more power than idle cpu...?

I wonder, how can cpu hotplug help, relative to inteligent scheduler?
