Innovation@Intel: Sleep Talking PCs

Emerging "anytime" device usages pose a difficult choice for consumers: either having a fully powered-on system that is energy inefficient and costly; or, shutdown their systems to conserve power, but prohibit "anytime" services access. Intel researchers have developed technology that allows devices to enter standby (S3) sleep state while maintaining full network presence, so the system can wake up on network service requests. Energy savings estimates are more than 40 TWhr over 100 million devices.
