Characterizing System Level Energy Consumption in Mobile Computing Platforms

Overview This paper approaches energy consumption characterization in mobile computing platforms by assessing energy consumption of "Basic" application-level tasks, such as processing, input/output (disk, display, etc.), communication (transmission and reception over the network), and combinations thereof. Besides providing information on the energy consumption behavior of typical tasks performed by mobile computers, task-level energy characterization enables power management decisions, such as whether, in a distributed computation, the task at hand can be executed locally or should be assigned to a different machine (given the machine's current energy budget, the energy cost of executing the task locally, and the cost of sending the required information over the network to a peer).
