WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES IN WHICH OPERATING CONTEXT IS USED TO REDUCE OPERATING COST AND METHODS FOR OPERATING SAME

摘要

A mobile device has operating resources available to it. A measurement generator provides measurements of the operating resources and a context awareness engine identifies which of the operating resources may be efficiently utilized by a service application in view of context conditions in which the mobile device is operating. A selection controller selects, based on the measurements, at least one of the identified operating resources for use by the service application to improve or optimize a cost of the mobile device.
