Coordinating power management functions in a multi-media device

A multi-media device, comprising:

• one or more multi-media processors;
• and
• one or more power-management entities executed by the one or more multi-media processors to:
• obtain an amount of available power in the multi-media device for execution of a service requiring one or more of the multi-media processors;
• determine, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power management functions in the one or more multi-media processors;
• and
• coordinate execution of the one or more power management functions in the one or more multi-media processors based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device.

A computer-readable medium comprising instructions for causing one or more processors to:

• obtain an amount of available power for execution of a service requiring at least one of multiple multi-media processors within a multi-media device;
• determine, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power management functions in the at least one of multiple multi-media processors of the multi-media device;
• and
• coordinate execution of the one or more power management functions in the at least one of multiple multi-media processors based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device.

A multi-media device, comprising:

• means for obtaining an amount of available power for execution of a service requiring at least one of multiple multi-media processors within the multi-media device;
• means for determining, based upon the amount of available power, configuration information for one or more power management functions in the at least one of the multiple multi-media processors of the multi-media device;
• and
• means for coordinating execution of the one or more power management functions in the at least one of the multiple multi-media processors based upon the configuration information in order to manage power utilization within the multi-media device.
