After a couple of years break, OSPM is back! In a different venue.

The V 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. Summit will be held in Ancona (Italy) on April 17-19, 2023.

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.
