Energy Management Framework
Abstract
This document defines a framework for Energy Management (EMAN) for
devices and device components within, or connected to, communication
networks. The framework presents a physical reference model and
information model. The information model consists of an Energy
Management Domain as a set of Energy Objects. Each Energy Object can
be attributed with identity, classification, and context. Energy
Objects can be monitored and controlled with respect to power, Power
State, energy, demand, Power Attributes, and battery. Additionally,
the framework models relationships and capabilities between Energy
Objects.
