User-Centric Power Management For Mobile Operating Systems, Hui Chen
Wayne State University Dissertations
The power consumption of mobile devices must be carefully managed to provide a satisfied battery life to users. This target, however, recently has become more and more difficult to complete. We still cannot expect the battery life problem be solved economically shortly, even though researchers already addressed many aspects of this problem. Principally, that's because existing power management systems, which concentrate on controlling hardware power states, cannot effectively make these hardware components work in low-power mode. Why is this the case?
Based on our analysis of 14 users' device usage trace, we found that background applications generate too many activities …
