Theseproceedingsincluderesearchpapersspanningawidespectrumof- eas in power-aware systems. We have grouped the papers into the following categories: (1)power-awarearchitectureandmicroarchitecture, (2)power-aware real-time systems, (3) power modeling and monitoring, and (4) power-aware operatingsystemsandcompilers.
