Systems and methods for management of background application events

摘要

Systems, methods, and devices for implementing a communication access policy are described herein. In some aspects, a wireless device is configured to execute a plurality of applications and to communicate with a communication network. The wireless device comprises a receiver configured to receive a plurality of rules specifying how one or more of the plurality of applications should communicate with the communication network. The wireless device comprises a processor configured to delay communication by one or more of the plurality of applications in compliance with the rules. The processor is further configured to allow transmission of the communication by one or more of the plurality of applications after termination of the delay. In one aspect, the processor is configured to separately record communication statistics based on whether the device is in a background or foreground state.

1. A wireless device configured to execute a plurality of applications and communicate with a communication network, the wireless device comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a plurality of rules specifying how one or more of the plurality of applications should communicate with the communication network; an input device configured to receive one or more inputs; and a processor configured to: determine whether the device is in a foreground state or a background state based on the presence or absence of one or more inputs; modify communication by one or more of the plurality of applications in compliance with the rules; and allow transmission of the communication by one or more of the plurality of applications in accordance with the rules, when the device is in the foreground state, wherein the rules allow or disallow transmission of the communication based on one or more of: a socket operation of the communication, a source port of the communication, a destination port of the communication, and a destination IP address of the communication, or a combination thereof.
