Abstract

See full text

A computer implemented method of controlling a computer comprises periodically determining the total value of at least one activity metric of the controlled computer. The contribution(s) to the said total value(s) of one or more predetermined activities are determined. In one embodiment, the said contribution(s) are subtracted from the said total value(s) to provide respective net value(s). The net values are compared with respective preset values and the power state of the computer is controlled in dependence on the comparison. The one or more predetermined activities may be identified using a predetermined data set. In another embodiment the net value of at least one activity metric of the monitored computer is a net value excluding contributions to the said value(s) from the said one or more predetermined activities identified from the said data set.
