AI to control enterprise PC power use

ALISO VIEJO, USA: Verismic launches Verismic Power Manager 4.0, revolutionary new PC power management software which uses its new DynamicWakeUp functionality to intelligently learn individuals' working behavior and personalize PC power management settings accordingly. Managing individuals' power consumption by artificial intelligence (AI) enables considerable cost savings for businesses.

Other new features include DynamicBrightness, which reduces screen brightness during the working day to ease eyestrain and aid sleeping patterns of staff and the Application Programming Interface (API) integrates Verismic Power Manager with building control systems managing the powering-on and off of PCs when users enter or leave buildings, further reducing power consumption and increasing staff productivity.

A survey by Verismic of public and private sector professionals shows that 91 per cent of respondents care how much their employer spends on energy, 49 per cent worry about energy use at work and 50 per cent wish to conserve power at work as much as at home. However, 24 per cent of professionals take no measures to reduce energy usage.

"As a leader in green technology, Verismic has an extensive, sector-varied and long-retained customer base which gives us a deep understanding of IT infrastructure issues," says Ashley Leonard, CEO, Verismic. "We also understand that users want to save employers money through reduced power consumption but they want it automated, near invisible and with no impact on their working day."

For IT managers, Verismic Power Manager boasts a new, simplified admin interface, wizard based deployment, improved online support and real-time calculation of cost-savings, scalable up to 100,000 seats.
