Power and Performance Analysis of Smart Devices

The spreading use of Smartphones stimulates growth of mobile computing. However, mobile computing through smartphones poses challenges due to its intrinsic nature of battery capacity, constraints of wireless networks and performance limitation of devices. Most users want their smartphones to be more powerful and high throughput, at the same time, small and light. In this research, we provide the analysis of smartphone in terms of power and performance under two different point of views. Since most smartphones have various components, we develop a queuing model for power analysis so that we can analyze the power dissipation on different components and analyze battery lifetime with different usage behaviors.
