Idle time service |
摘要 |
In embodiments of an idle time service, it can be determined that processing on a device is in an idle state. An execution duration of applications that are scheduled to be executed by a processor of the device can then be extended to reduce power consumption by the device. In other embodiments, it can be determined that an application configured to execute on a device is a background application. The execution duration of the background application can then be extended to reduce power consumption by the device. |

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
accessing a processor schedule to determine whether applications scheduled to be executed by a processor of a device are background applications; determining that processing on the device is in an idle state based on determining that all applications that are scheduled to be executed by a processor of the device are background applications; and responsive to determining that processing on the device is in an idle state, extending an execution duration of the background applications that are scheduled to be executed by a processor of the device to reduce power consumption by the device. |
