This is the first public release of PoMP. We develop an algorithm which minimizes the power consumption for multimedia data playback. We implement the algorithm in mpeg2dec. PoMP uses library of mpeg2dec.

You have to install mpeg2dec to execute PoMP. PoMP controls the disk spindle via standard ATA-4 command. At this moment, we only release Linux binary. The disk scheduling algorithm of PoMP v.0.1 is optimized for IBM microdrive DMDM 10340.

PoMP is tested with IBM micro drive attached via IDE interface(ATA-4). You can type the command as follows. Assume that Microdrive is /dev/hde.

$ ./mpeg2dec -b 1024 /mnt/microdrive/santafe.mpeg /dev/hde
