Context Aware Power Management of Mobile Systems for Sensing Applications

''In these examples a sensing application is continuously running

on the smartphone collecting and forwarding data to a backend

server. Continuous collect and forward of data from sensors to

backend impacts on the smartphone's battery life especially when

the samples needs to be geo tagged. In fact, just tracking location

can reduce smarthphone lifetime to a few hours [4]. Furthermore,

wireless interfaces with the body worn sensors, such as Bluetooth,

impact the smartphone battery life.''
