Abstract :
Mobile devices are placing energy efficiency in the hands of software developers. Unfortunately, power modelling alone cannot identify significant power variations, nor is it practical in deployment. We show that on-board fine-grained power measurements of the fuel gauge are now both accurate and low overhead.
