9 Use Cases
This section contains object diagrams and use cases for the Power Supply Profile.
9.1 Profile Registration
Figure 2 represents a possible instantiation of the Power Utilization Management Profile. The registration
of this profile is represented by profile2, using the scoping instance methodology. Service1 is the Central
Instance of the profile.

9.2 Power Utilization Algorithms
These use cases describe possible instantiation of the Power Utilization Management Profile for
representing and managing power utilization algorithms.
9.2.1 Representing Power Utilization Algorithm
Figure 3 represents an instantiation of the Power Utilization Management Profile. Cap1 represents the
capabilities of the power utilization service. The value of 32769 for the cap1.SupportedMethods property
indicates that the RequestPowerUtilizationAlgorithm is supported by the associated service1. The
Cap1.SupportedRequestAlgorithms and Cap1.RequiredCustomSettings properties represent the allowed
values for the RequestedAlgorithm, CustomSettingNames and CustomSettingValues parameters of the
service1.RequestPowerUtilizationAlgorithm() method.
The service1.PowerUtilizationMode represents the current power utilization mode of the associated
ComputerSystem managed system. The service1.PowerUtilizationAlgorithm property’s value 7 (Active
Power Utilization) represents that the power utilization service is employing a specific algorithm to yield
the best power consumption and performance for the associated ComputerSystem managed system.
