Adaptive Content Server for Optimizing Battery Life in Mobile Devices

Abstract

The latest growth of mobile technology has resulted in more users accessing network services via mobile devices, such as tablets or smartphones. Personalized look and content becomes more important. Mobile devices have different properties than desktop computers. Mobile devices do not have a large screen, convenient input-output devices, and have limited computing capabilities. Content adaptation is a common definition used for adaptation or customization of content transferred from the server via the HTTP protocol to the client. The research method is to adjust the content which will be transferred to the user based on the device resources i.e. the battery on the client side so that higher service quality will be achieved. In this study, researchers will conduct the development of content adaptation methods that consider the condition of battery resources on the devices. Battery resource estimation is done to determine the current condition of existing battery in accessing device. The appropriate content determination mechanism will be based on the value generated from the estimated resource of the battery on the device that has been done.
