Abstract

In an embodiment, a method includes receiving user interface information having event registrations for a user interface to be displayed on a display of a system, partitioning the display into an unused display area and an active display area based on the event registrations, and power managing the unused display area while maintaining the active display area fully powered. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
