Monitoring Energy Consumption of Smartphones

With the rapid development of new and innovative applications for mobile devices like smart phones, advances in battery technology have not kept pace with rapidly growing energy demands. Thus energy consumption has become a more and more important issue of mobile devices. To meet the requirements of saving energy, it is critical to monitor and analyze the energy consumption of applications on smart phones. For this purpose, we develop a smart energy monitoring system called SEMO for smart phones using Android operating system. It can profile mobile applications with battery usage information, which is vital for both developers and users.
