Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel (OSPM-summit) VIII edition

April 14-16, 2026 - Arm, Cambridge (UK)

.:: SAVE THE DATE

OSPM is moving to the UK!

Please note that this is a “save the date” announcement only.

Given that the Linux Plumbers Conference 2025 (LPC25) is scheduled for
December 2025, the call for topics and registrations will open in early
2026, after LPC25 has concluded.

More communication and further details will follow. Stay tuned!

.:: FOCUS

The VIII 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. The summit will be held at Arm in
Cambridge (UK) on April 14-16, 2026.

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.

Feel free to take a look at what happened previous years:

.:: FORMAT

The summit is organized to cover three days of discussions and talks.

The list of topics of interest includes (but it is not limited to):

 - Power management techniques
 - Scheduling techniques (real-time and non real-time)
 - Energy consumption and CPU capacity aware scheduling
 - Real-time virtualization
 - Mobile/Server power management real-world use cases (successes and
   failures)
 - Power management and scheduling tooling (configuration, integration,
   testing, etc.)
 - Tracing
 - Recap/lightning talks

Presentations (50 min) can cover recently developed technologies,
ongoing work and new ideas. Please understand that this workshop is not
intended for presenting sales and marketing pitches.

.:: SUBMIT A TOPIC/PRESENTATION

Please consider this a "save the date" notification only. Information
regarding important dates and how to submit topics will be announced in
early 2026.

.:: ATTENDING

Attending OSPM-summit is free of charge, but registration to the event
is mandatory. The event can allow a maximum of 50 people (so, be sure to
register early!).

Registration is scheduled to open in early 2026.

While it is not strictly required to submit a topic/presentation,
registrations with a topic/presentation proposal will take precedence.

.:: VENUE

OSPM26 is hosted at the Arm Cambridge campus (in Cambridge, UK), in the
lecture theatre and breakout area. We appreciate Arm's generous support
in providing the venue.

Although the event takes place on Arm's premises, it is fully
independent of Arm's business operations. The summit is organised by and
for the open-source community, and everyone is welcome to take part in
an open, collaborative environment.
