Managing energy usage in mobile devices
摘要
說明書
Another example embodiment of the present invention relates to a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. The storage medium may be a component of the mobile device. The storage medium stores instructions, which upon execution by a processor, e.g., of the mobile device, are operable for causing, controlling, or programming the processor to perform the energy management method, described herein. Example embodiments of the present invention relates to various network platforms. An example embodiment of the present invention relates to an energy management system. The energy management system is operable, over at least one of the various network platforms, for controlling the mobile device in relation to an energy-using operation.
In one example embodiment, a method for managing energy usage by a mobile device, involves: monitoring at least one environmental characteristic of at least two environments in which the mobile device is operable; tracking a location of the mobile device in relation to the at least two environments; informing the mobile device, based on the tracking, with data relating to the at least one environmental characteristic of the environment in which the mobile device is located; sensing a characteristic of the mobile device; comparing the data, related to the at least one environmental characteristic of the environment in which the mobile device is located, to the sensed characteristic of the mobile device; determining an action related to at least one energy-using operation of the mobile device based on the comparing of the environmental characteristic data to the sensed mobile device characteristic; and controlling the at least one energy-using operation of the mobile device based on the determined action.
