Abstract

A power management system for providing a unified power management of at least one electronic system in a selected environment is provided, wherein the at least one electronic system includes a plurality of electronic components. The power management system includes a first controller module operating at the at least one electronic system in the selected environment to generate a first power control of the each electronic component based at least on a system power budget for the at least one electronic system; a second controller module operating at each of the electronic components to generate a second power control of the each electronic component based at least on a component power budget for the each electronic component; and a third controller module operating at each of the electronic components to modify a power-performance state of the each electronic component based on a target resource utilization level, wherein the target resource utilization level is based at least on the first and second power controls.
