智能手机的最新技术进步使其成为日常生活通信中最重要的设备。WhatsApp、微信、Viber和QQ Messenger等即时通讯（IM）应用程序（应用程序）正在获得用户对通信的需求。我们以最流行的即时通讯应用微信和QQ为例，研究了它们的流量模式。根据我们的实验结果，群聊消息在我们收集的消息数据中占了很大的比例。我们发现，用户在群聊消息处于后台流量后，电池寿命会缩短。在本文中，我们研究如何改善群组聊天的能耗。我们提出的节能群聊消息支持网络偏好，如3G或WiFi网络。此外，群聊流量模式取决于用户的状态意识、知识;我们在用户不活动时延迟消息，并在用户活跃于群聊时传递延迟消息。据我们评估，我们的节能群聊消息服务为3G用户节省了13.7%至32%的能源，为WiFi用户节省了21%至27%的能源。
Recent technology advancement in smartphones makes it the most important device in daily life communication. Instant messenger (IM) applications (apps) such as WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber and QQ messenger are gaining users demand for communication. We take data collected from WeChat and QQ which are most popular IM application as an example to investigate their traffic pattern. Based on our experimental findings, group chat messages take a larger portion in our data collected messages. We find users experiencing shorter battery life after group chat messages are in background traffic. In this paper, we look into improving group chat energy consumption. Our proposed energy efficient group chat messages support network preferences such as 3G or WiFi network. In addition, group chat traffic pattern is dependent on user status awareness, knowledge; we postponed messages over time while user is inactive and deliver postponed messages when user is active in group chats. We evaluate that our energy efficient group chat messaging achieves energy saving between 13.7% to 32% for 3G and 21% to 27% for WiFi, users.
