Skip Abstract Section

Abstract

Energy consumption in mobile devices is an important issue for both system developers and users. Users are aware of the battery-related information of their mobile devices and tend to take appropriate actions to increase the battery life. In this article, we propose a framework that accurately estimates the remaining battery time of applications at runtime. The framework profiles the power behavior of applications tied with activated hardware components and estimates the remaining battery budget utilizing the battery-related data provided by the device. The experiments validate that our method predicts the remaining battery time for applications with approximately 93% of accuracy.
