POWER-SAVING IN A PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE OPERATING IN A TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for power saving in a telecommunication network, and in particular in a mobile telecommunication device. Data entities that are to be displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) of the portable electronic device are arranged in an extremely efficient way avoiding any 'wasting' of space of the GUI. Thus, the need for any scrolling operations on the GUI for navigating through the data entities is minimized or even avoided. Due to the optimal placement of the data entities in an as compact manner as possible on the GUI, the number of user scrolling operations is drastically minimized. As a consequence, the power consumption of the device will decrease and the operational time of the device in case of operation on battery is increased.
