Towards End-User Driven Power Saving Control in Android Devices

During the last decade mobile communications increasingly became part of people’s daily routine. Such usage raises new challenges regarding devices’ battery lifetime management when using most popular wireless access technologies, such as IEEE 802.11. This paper investigates the energy/delay trade-off of using an end-user driven power saving approach, when compared with the standard IEEE 802.11...

High-Level Energy Saving Strategies for Mobile Location-Based Services on Android Devices

The use of mobile location-based services (LBS) on modern smartphones, especially continuous utilization of GPS, significantly reduces the operating times of batteries. Considering the fact that the exhausting exploitation of power for determining the current location is unnecessary for various situations (e.g., when the device is not being moved), several high-level energy saving strategies ca...
