Monitoring Energy Consumption of Smartphones
Full text linkWith the rapid development of new and innovative applications for mobile
devices like smartphones, advances in battery technology have not kept pace
with rapidly growing energy demands. Thus energy consumption has become a more
and more important issue of mobile devices. To meet the requirements of saving
energy, it is critical to monitor and analyze the energy consumption of
applications on smartphones. For this purpose, we develop a smart energy
monitoring system called SEMO for smartphones using Android operating system.
It can profile mobile applications with battery usage information, which is
vital for both developers and users.Comment: The 1st International Workshop on Sensing, Networking, and Computing

No full textIt has been demonstrated originally in plants that phenotypic traits,
such as floral symmetry, can be caused by changes of methylation
patterns of specific genes. Such traits can be transgenerationally
inherited for multiple generations and remain associated with cytosine
methylation patterns. Whether genomic methylation may also contribute to
epigenetic inheritance across generations in vertebrates and notably in
mammals is still more controversial. One reason for this tentativeness
is the dual occurrence of global genomic de-methylation first in
pre-implantation embryos and subsequently in primordial germ cells
(PGCs) of mammals. Although gene focused cases of epigenetic inheritance
associated with genomic DNA methylation have been well studied mostly
in rodents (such as imprinted genes and the Agouti viable yellow, Avy,
allele), it is still a matter of debate whether genomic DNA methylation
may provide a more general mechanism for the epigenetic inheritance of
acquired traits across generations. We review the current literature on
this topic with a focus on the potential role of DNA methylation for
epigenetic inheritance across generations in mammals
