Embodiment Construction
[0050] figure 1 is a schematic illustration of one way in which feedback on power consumption in a battery-operated electronic device may be provided to a user. Typically, device 100 visually displays to the user the number of hardware components or software applications operating in device 100, along with the relative amount of power each of these components or applications draws from the device's battery system.
[0051] Electronic device 100 may be, for example, a telephone, music player, PDA, game console, or other device that includes a display screen 105 for presenting graphical images to a user. A portion of the display screen 105 includes a power consumption feedback presentation 110 . The power consumption feedback presentation 110 presents feedback to the user regarding the power consumption of the device 100 and may allow the user to understand how the battery power available to the electronic device 100 has been or is likely to be consumed.
[0052] The feedback ...

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing a user with feedback regarding power consumption in a battery-operated electronic device. In one aspect, a method is performed by one or more data processing apparatus. The method includes receiving, at the data processing apparatus, historical records of power consumption by a collection of battery-operated electronic devices that are operated by different users, aggregating and analyzing, by the data processing apparatus, the historical records to generate representative characterizations of the power consumption on different classes of the battery-operated electronic devices, and outputting, from the data processing apparatus, the representative characterizations of the power consumption by different applications that have executed on the different classes. Each of the battery-operated electronic devices belongs to a class.
Description
Background technique [0001] This specification relates to providing feedback to a user about power consumption in battery-operated electronic devices. [0002] Modern electronic devices provide users with a large number of functions. Battery-operated, portable, handheld electronic devices such as telephones, music players, PDAs, and game consoles are capable of displaying information on a display screen, receiving instructions from the user, communicating with other devices using wired and wireless data links, taking digital To process large amounts of digital data at speeds unimaginable even before. This functionality is implemented using hardware components such as display screens, keyboards, keypads, communication interfaces, digital data processors, charge-coupled devices, and other integrated circuits for coordinating the operation of these and other hardware components. These various hardware components consume electrical power and thus hasten the depletion of the batt...
