| MeeGo: power usage tuning || Linux is far from being power-optimal, not to say the complex and bulky desktop components. There are so many things can be done in this area for the vast collection of free software running on MeeGo that I don't know which is most important yet. Do you know it? || OS, profiler || Yan Li ([[User:yanli|yanli]]) || Yan Li ([[User:yanli|yanli]]) || [http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/powertop/ PowerTOP] is a good start. The hard part in this idea is the participant has to have a power meter to measure the real-time power usage, or you have no way to know your progress. Some computer science or EE labs in universities have that meter. But there are still tasks can be done even without a power meter, like running major software parts within a profiler to identify and optimize hot spots.
