Abstract

Dengue is a flu-like viral disease found mostly in the tropical regions, and is spread by infected mosquitoes. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a severe and often fatal manifestation if left untreated. In 2009, India reported 899 cases of dengue fever. PowerSense is an extensible module for the Dengue Detector Mobile Application (DDMA) that proactively facilitates management of processes for web service assisted mobile applications. PowerSense uses measured power consumption and application processing delay metrics from the smartphone device to dispatch image processing jobs locally or remotely to the DDMA .NET web service (DDMA-WS) at runtime. This work is the first step towards an application level middle-ware framework for power conscious computing.
