Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Various embodiments provide techniques and devices for scheduling power loads in devices having multiple batteries. Loads are characterized based on the power required to serve them. Loads are then assigned to batteries in response to the type of load and relative monitored characteristics of the batteries. The monitored battery characteristics can change over time. In some embodiments, stored profile information of the batteries can also be used in scheduling loads. In further embodiments, estimated workloads can also be used to schedule loads.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A method comprising: monitoring at least one energy source characteristic of at least one of a plurality of finite energy sources; monitoring at least one load characteristic of a present load; selecting one of the plurality of finite energy sources in response to the monitoring at least one energy source characteristic and the monitoring at least one load characteristic; and scheduling the present load to the selected finite energy source.
