20110252423 | Opportunistic Multitasking - Services for a personal electronic device are provided through which a form of background processing or multitasking is supported. The disclosed services permit user applications to take advantage of background processing without significant negative consequences to a user's experience of the foreground process or the personal electronic device's power resources. To effect the disclosed multitasking, one or more of a number of operational restrictions may be enforced. A consequence of such restrictions may be that a process will not be able to do in the background state, what it may be able to do if it were in the foreground state. By way of example, network-based applications may be suspended until a message is received for them. At that time, the suspended application may be moved into the background state where it is permitted to respond to the message. In a similar fashion, audio application may be permitted to execute in background until suspended by user action. At that time, the application is suspended. | 10-13-2011 |
20140365642 | Smart Management of Background Network Connections Based on Historical Data - In some implementations, a network daemon can manage access to a mobile device's network interface. The network daemon (e.g., network connection managing process) can monitor the condition of the mobile device's network connection on one or more interfaces. The network daemon can monitor many conditions on the mobile device. The network daemon can receive background networking requests from network clients (e.g., processes, applications) that specify criteria for initiating a network connection. The network daemon can then smartly manage network connections taking into account network conditions, mobile device conditions and/or client criteria received in the client request. This can help reduce battery life impact, memory usage, likelihood of call drops, data usage cost, and load on network operators. | 12-11-2014 |
