Abstract
A power control method of an electronic device is provided. The electronic device transmits power change information containing a power control value of an application to another electronic device, and receives and stores power control information about the application transmitted from the another electronic device. If a power level of the electronic device is lower than a predetermined power change level when the application is executed, the electronic device executes the application with power control data of the application in the power control information stored in the electronic device.
Claims26
A power control method of an electronic device, comprising:
- transmitting power change information of an application to another electronic device;
- receiving and storing power control information of the application transmitted from the another electronic device;
- and
- if a power level of the electronic device is lower than a predetermined power change level when the application is executed, executing the application based on the power control information stored in the electronic device,
- wherein the power change information comprises a power control value which controls a frame rate of a screen of the application set by a user of the electronic device, and
- wherein the power control information is determined based on a plurality of power control values transmitted from a plurality of apparatuses, in which an application installed is a same kind as the application.
A method for processing power control information for power control of a plurality of first electronic devices at a second electronic device, the method comprising:
- collecting power change information of an application transmitted from the plurality of first electronic devices in which an application installed is a same kind as the application;
- generating a power control information of the application based on the plurality of the power control values transmitted from the plurality of first electronic devices;
- and
- transmitting the power control information to the plurality of first electronic devices, wherein the power change information comprises a power control value which controls a frame rate of a screen of the application set by a user of the plurality of first electronic devices.
An electronic device comprising:
- a communication interface;
- a memory;
- a display;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- control the communication interface to transmit power change information of an application to another electronic device, and to receive power control information of the application from the another electronic device,
- control the memory to store the power control information of the application, and
- execute, if a power level of the electronic device is lower than a predetermined power change level, the application based on the power control information,
- wherein the power change information comprises a power control value which controls a frame rate of a screen of the application set by a user of the electronic device, and
- wherein the power control information is determined based on a plurality of power control values transmitted from a plurality of apparatuses, in which an application installed is a same kind as the application.
A second electronic device for controlling power of a plurality of first electronic devices, comprising:
- a communication interface;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- receive power change information of an application transmitted from the plurality of first electronic devices, in which an application installed is a same kind as the application;
- generate a power control information of the application based on the plurality of the power control values transmitted from the plurality of first electronic devices;
- and
- transmit the power control information to the plurality of first electronic devices,
- wherein the power change information comprises a power control value which controls a frame rate of a screen of the application set by a user of the plurality of first electronic devices.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium recording thereon a program for executing operations of:
- transmitting, by an electronic device, power change information of an application to another electronic device;
- receiving and storing, by the electronic device, power control information of the application transmitted from the another electronic device;
- and
- if a power level of the electronic device is lower than a predetermined power change level when the application is executed, executing the application based on the power control information stored in the electronic device,
- wherein the power change information comprises a power control value which controls a frame rate of a screen of the application set by a user of the electronic device, and
- wherein the power control information is determined based on a plurality of power control values transmitted from a plurality of apparatuses, in which an application installed is a same kind as the application.
