The computer implemented method of Claim 1, wherein the set of applications includes a plurality of low power paths, and wherein the low power path is a first low power path, and wherein the computer implemented method further comprises:responsive to the operating condition still being above the threshold after the set of applications switches to the first low power path, switching the set of applications to a next low power path, wherein the next low power path is a low power path that uses less power than a previous low power path;responsive to switching the set of applications to the next low power path, determining whether the operating condition is below the threshold; andresponsive to the set of applications not being below the threshold, repeating the step of switching the set of applications to the next low power path and the step of determining whether the operating condition is below the threshold.
