Abstract
Technologies for regulating power consumption include a mobile computing device to generate a power profile based on historical power usage data of the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device determines a power usage context of the mobile computing device and estimates a future power consumption of the mobile computing device based on at least one of the power profile or the power usage context. The mobile computing device regulates a power consumption of the mobile computing device based on the estimated future power consumption.
Claims26
1-25. (canceled)
A mobile computing device for regulating power consumption, the mobile computing device comprising:
- a power estimation module to (i) generate a power profile based on historical power usage data of the mobile computing device, (ii) determine a power usage context of the mobile computing device, and (iii) estimate a future power consumption of the mobile computing device based on at least one of the power profile or the power usage context;
- and
- a power regulation module to regulate a power consumption of the mobile computing device based on the estimated future power consumption.
One or more machine-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a mobile computing device, causes the mobile computing device to:
- generate a power profile based on historical power usage data of the mobile computing device;
- determine a power usage context of the mobile computing device;
- estimate a future power consumption of the mobile computing device based on at least one of the power profile or the power usage context;
- and
- regulate a power consumption of the mobile computing device based on the estimated future power consumption.
A method for regulating power consumption on a mobile computing device, the method comprising:
- generating, by the mobile computing device, a power profile based on historical power usage data of the mobile computing device;
- determining, by the mobile computing device, a power usage context of the mobile computing device;
- estimating, by the mobile computing device, a future power consumption of the mobile computing device based on at least one of the power profile or the power usage context;
- and
- regulating, by the mobile computing device, a power consumption of the mobile computing device based on the estimated future power consumption.
