Abstract
An embodiment may include circuitry to be included, at least in part, in at least one node to be used in a network. The circuitry may (a) receive, at least in part, via at least one power supply line of the at least one node, at least one packet, and/or (b) issue, at least in part, via the at least one power supply line, the at least one packet. The at least one packet may request at least one change, at least in part, in at least one power consumption state of at least one portion of the at least one node. Many modifications, variations, and alternatives are possible without departing from this embodiment.
