Abstract:
Methods and systems of operating a computer system including a processor are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes providing a discretized operating system for controlling applications executed by the computer system, and replacing an idle task of the discretized operating system with a substitute idle task that causes the processor to enter a dormant mode, a priority level of the substitute idle task being the same as a priority level of the idle task.
