"ACPI (short for "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface") is a
     standard that defines power and configuration management interfaces
     between an operating system and Hardware. It is meant to supersede
     the older APM standard (for power management) and provide a generic
     interface for recognition and configuration of hardware devices."
