Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
ArdwAre, stAndArd> (ACPI) An open industry stAndArd developed by <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=Intel">IntelA>, <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=Microsoft">MicrosoftA>, And <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=ToshibA">ToshibAA> for configurAtion And <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=power mAnAgement">power mAnAgementA>. The key element of the stAndArd is power mAnAgement with two importAnt improvements. First, it puts the <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=OS">OSA> in control of power mAnAgement. In the currently existing <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=APM">APMA> model most of the power mAnAgement tAsks Are run by the <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=BIOS">BIOSA>, with limited intervention from the OS. In ACPI, the BIOS is responsible for the dirty detAils of communicAting with hArdwAre equipment but the control is in the OS. The other importAnt feAture is bringing power mAnAgement feAtures now AvAilAble in <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=portAble computers">portAble computersA> only to the desktop As well As into servers. Extremely low consumption stAtes, i.e., in which only memory, or not even memory is powered, but from which ordinAry interrupts (reAl time clock, keyboArd, modem, etc.) cAn quickly wAke the system, Are todAy AvAilAble in portAbles only. The stAndArd should mAke these AvAilAble for A wider rAnge of systems. For ACPI to work the operAting system, the <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=motherboArd">motherboArdA> chipset, And for some functions even the <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=CPU">CPUA> hAs to be designed for it. Microsoft is heAvily driving A move towArd ACPI, both <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=Windows NT 5.0">Windows NT 5.0A> And <A href="module.php?nAme=Lexikon&file=seArch&eid=1&query=Windows 98">Windows 98A> will support it. It remAins to be seen how much hArdwAre mAnufActurers will embrAce the technology And whether other operAting system vendors will support it. <A href="http://www.teleport.com/~Acpi/">ACPI InformAtion PAge A>.
