    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for allocating and distributing power management budgets for subsystems of a computer system. For each of a plurality of subsystems, a power management system may generate a long-term power budget and a closed-loop power budget, and then determine a final power budget to provide to the subsystem, e.g., by applying a min function, a weighted sum, or some other function to the long-term power budget and the closed-loop power budget. The closed-loop power budget is determined based on observations of power draw over a past period of time, and therefore cannot respond immediately to large changes in power. The long-term power budget is generated based on a prediction of battery capability over an upcoming window of time, and may therefore provide a power cap before the system is under duress.
