SUSPENSION AND/OR CONTROL OF PROCESSES FOR CONNECTED STANDBY Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC G06F1/32 G06F9/06 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention provides one or more methods and/or one system for assigning power management classifications to a process, transitioning a computing environment into a connected standby state based on power management classifications assigned to processes, and transitioning the computing environment from the connected standby state to an execution state. That is, power management classifications, such as exempt, control and/or suspend, may be assigned to processes based on various factors, such as whether a process provides required functionality and/or whether the process provides functionality used for basic operation of the computing environment. In this way, the computing environment may be transitioned into a low power connected standby state which may continue executing required functionality, while reducing power consumption by suspending and/or controlling other functionality.

EFFECT: computing environment may quickly transition into execution state to quickly provide a user with up-to-date information.
