Abstract
A mobile apparatus is disclosed that includes: a plurality of network interfaces; a processor; the mobile being configured to monitor applications running on it, including real time or non real time nature of said applications; the mobile being configured to monitor its operating situation, including moving or non moving status; and the mobile being configured to control processes of the mobile during silent periods based on one or more of its application awareness and its operating situation awareness.
Claims20
A method of controlling a wireless mobile having multiple interfaces, comprising:
- having said mobile be aware of its applications running on it;
- having said mobile be aware of its operating situation;
- and
- having said mobile control processes of said mobile during silent periods based on one or more of its application awareness and its operating situation awareness.
A mobile apparatus, comprising:
- a plurality of network interfaces;
- a processor;
- said mobile being configured to monitor applications running on it, including real time or non real time nature of said applications;
- said mobile being configured to monitor its operating situation, including moving or non moving status;
- and
- said mobile being configured to control processes of said mobile during silent periods based on one or more of its application awareness and its operating situation awareness.
A method of controlling a mobile apparatus, comprising:
- controlling said mobile to make efficient use of silent periods due to unoccupied brief intervals of wireless traffic data by automatically switching between multiple tasks performed during said silent periods depending on a traffic volume of at least one application running on said mobile apparatus and a motion condition of the mobile.
