I would like to nominate myself for the topic "Energy Conservation Bias".

I have been working on improving Energy management on PowerPC over the
last year. Specifically I have worked on extending the tick broadcast
framework in the kernel to support deep idle states and helped review
and improvise the cpufreq driver for PowerNV platforms.

Besides this I have been helping out in efforts to integrate cpuidle
with scheduler over the last year. The year before that I spent time
analysing the advantage that the per-entity load tracking metric brings
to the scheduler and its role in designing the power aware scheduler.
I presented a talk at the Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit 2013 on
the same.

I wish to be a part of this discussion and look forward to sharing my
ideas on Energy management in the kernel. I am very interested in
bringing to the table, the challenges and solutions that we have on
PowerPC in the area of Energy Management. Please consider my
participation in this discussion.
