Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel

OSPM Summit - VII edition

The VII edition of the Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel (OSPM) summit aims at fostering discussions on power management and (real-time) scheduling techniques. The summit will be held in Uhldingen (Germany) on March 18-20, 2025.

We welcome anybody interested in having discussions on the broad scope of scheduler techniques for reducing energy consumption while meeting performance and latency requirements, real-time systems, real-time and non-real-time scheduling, tooling, debugging and tracing.

Another 13 rooms are pre-reserved in the Hotel Kreuz which is also in a 5min walking distance to the conference location [4]. Cost is 75 EUR incl. breakfast. Please choose your hotel (and room) and arrange booking yourself. We recommend arrival on March 17 and departure on March 21 due to the length of the trip.

You can reach Uhldingen-Mühlhofen best from Zürich Airport [5] or Friedrichshafen Airport [6]. From both airports there are train and/or bus connections to Uhldingen-Mühlhofen which you can check here [7]. The rides are quite long, so another possibility is to organize yourself in groups and share a taxi/shuttle [8].
