Modern smartphones are notorious for consuming energy far too quickly, especially for access to the Internet through wireless radios.Although certain advances have been made on the hardware side such as better batteries, this research is focused on improving energy management software to make better use of existing batteries.Considering that the frequency of use of these radios is spurred by the popularity of smartphone applications, the wide availability of applications, for instance the Android Market has over 500,000 registered applications, shows that the need to save smartphone radio energy is highly relevant and urgent today.Different from existing research, this high-risk high-reward research takes a network traffic aware approach to save smartphone radio energy. The main intellectual merits include: (1) Solutions for determining low priority delay tolerant smartphone applications without assistant from application developers. (2) Solutions for determining delay tolerant traffic periods within high priority real-time smartphone applications. (3) Solutions for tracking low priority delay tolerant applications, and delay tolerant traffic periods in high priority real-time applications through the system to optimize radio energy efficiency.This research will extend smartphone battery lifetime with the potential to benefit over one billion smartphone users worldwide. User experience of smartphone usage will be enhanced. Industry smartphone practice will also be improved. This research will be integrated into three courses, and also benefit research of female graduate students and undergraduate students. Special distribution efforts are also planned to increase the number of women and girls in computing.

Modern smartphones are notorious for consuming energy far too quickly, especially for access to the Internet through wireless radios.Although certain advances have been made on the hardware side such as better batteries, this research is focused on improving energy management software to make better use of existing batteries.Considering that the frequency of use of these radios is spurred by the popularity of smartphone applications, the wide availability of applications, for instance the Android Market has over 500,000 registered应用程序表明，节省智能手机无线电能源的需求是今天高度相关和紧迫的。与现有的研究不同，这项高风险的高级研究采用网络流量意识到的方法来节省智能手机无线电能源。主要的智力优点包括：（1）用于确定不使用应用程序开发人员助理的低优先级耐受性智能手机应用程序的解决方案。 （2）用于确定高优先级实时智能手机应用程序中延迟耐受性交通周期的解决方案。 （3）用于跟踪低优先级延迟耐受性应用程序的解决方案，以及通过系统高优先级实时应用中延迟耐受性的交通，以优化无线电能源效率。这项研究将延长智能手机电池寿命，并有可能使全球10亿智能手机用户受益。智能手机使用的用户体验将得到增强。行业智能手机的实践也将得到改善。这项研究将融入三个课程，也有益于女研究生和本科生的研究。还计划提出特殊的分销工作，以增加计算中的妇女和女孩的数量。
