Mobile Manageability in Low-Power and Operating-System-Absent States

Conclusion

As this article shows, remote manageability of mobile computers in low-power states (and OS-absent states) requires a few adaptations of the manageability logic from the desktop computer environment to the mobile computer environment. Only by combining hardware, firmware, and software means, and by handling mobile connectivity issues on various levels (from the platform level, through the local networking level, to the remote networking level), did Intel® vPro™ technology succeed in introducing a manageability solution that can operate in Sx and OS-absent states in a mobile world, without requiring redundant wake-ups of the managed system.
