Context-Aware Mobile Power Management Using Fuzzy Inference as a Service

  • Conference paper
Mobile Computing, Applications, and Services (MobiCASE 2012)

Abstract

As smartphones become ubiquitous, their energy consumption remains one of the most important issues. Mobile devices operate in a dynamically changing context, and their embedded sensors can be used to extract the relevant context needed for resource optimization. In this paper, we present a context-aware power management system implemented as a widely-applicable middleware application. Fuzzy inference is used to represent a high-level description of context, which is provided as a service. We test our approach using actual periodic and streaming applications on a mobile phone. Our results show energy reduction of 13-50% for periodic applications, and 18-36% for streaming applications.
