3. Active State Power Management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_State_Power_Management

   Low power mode is often achieved by reducing or even stopping the serial bus clock as well as possibly powering down the PHY device itself. While ASPM brings a reduction in power consumption, it can also result in increased latency as the serial bus needs to be 'woken up' from low-power mode, possibly reconfigured and the host-to-device link re ...

4. Sleep mode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_mode

   Sleep mode (or suspend to RAM) is a low power mode for electronic devices such as computers, televisions, and remote controlled devices. These modes save significantly on electrical consumption compared to leaving a device fully on and, upon resume, allow the user to avoid having to reissue instructions or to wait for a machine to boot .

5. Hibernation (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernation_(computing)

   Windows Vista introduced a hybrid sleep feature, which saves the contents of memory to hard disk but instead of powering down, enters sleep mode. If the power is lost, the computer can resume as if hibernated. Windows 7 introduced compression to the hibernation file and set the default size to 75% of the total physical memory. [18]

6. Reset (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reset_(computing)

   Reset places less stress on the hardware than power cycling, as the power is not removed. Many computers, especially older models, have user accessible "reset" buttons that assert the reset line to facilitate a system reboot in a way that cannot be trapped (i.e. prevented) by the operating system, or holding a combination of buttons on some ...

7. ACPI - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACPI

   Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping), and status monitoring. It was first released in ...

8. Booting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting

   Restarting a computer also is called rebooting, which can be "hard", e.g. after electrical power to the CPU is switched from off to on, or "soft", where the power is not cut. On some systems, a soft boot may optionally clear RAM to zero.

9. Standby power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_power

   Standby power, also called vampire power [1], vampire draw, phantom load, ghost load, or leaking electricity, refers to how electronic and electrical appliances consume electric power. At the same time, they are switched off (but are designed to draw some power) or in standby mode. It only occurs because some devices claim to be "switched off ...
