    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of maintaining source device to sink device synchronization in systems in which the source device enters a Panel Self-Refresh (PSR/PSR2) mode and the sink device enables adaptive synchronization with the source device. To maintain synchronization, in some instances the source device and the sink device may maintain synchronization contemporaneous with at least a portion of the PSR/PSR2 operating mode. To maintain synchronization, in some instances, a high-bandwidth communications link may be maintained between the source device and the sink device. In some instances, synchronization between the source device and the sink device may be interrupted upon the source device entering the PSR/PSR2 operating mode and may be re-established upon the source device exiting the PSR/PSR2 operating mode.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for reduced computing device power consumption. Example methods disclosed herein includes detecting frame updates corresponding to input frames to be presented by a display, and causing a programmable timer to generate second interrupts corresponding to first interrupts generated by a display engine, the second interrupts to be generated when there are no frame updates detected for at least a first duration of time defined by a first threshold. Example methods further include causing the display engine to transition to a low power state when (1) the programmable timer is configured to generate the second interrupts and (2) no frame updates have been detected for at least a second duration of time following the first duration of time, the second duration of time defined by a second threshold.

    Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating smart optimization of unused graphics buffer memory in computing environments. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting a software application at a computing device, where the software application to place a request for a task capable of being executed by a processor of the computing device. The method may further include allocating a composition of buffers and facilitate allocation of physical memory to the buffers to be used to perform the task, where a first portion of the physical memory and a second portion of the physical memory are allocated to first one or more of the buffers and second one or more of the buffers, respectively. The method may further include purging first one or more of the buffers, if the first one or more of the buffers are determined to be unused for the task, where purging includes disallowing commitment of the first portion of the physical memory to the first one or more of the buffers such that the first portion of the physical memory remains available for other tasks despite being allocated to the first one or more of the buffers.
