METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHANGING AN OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTIC OF A DEVICE IN ORDER TO ADJUST THE POWER CONSUMPTION LEVEL

摘要

An apparatus for changing an operational characteristic of a device based at least in part on a user input in order to adjust a power consumption level of the device may include a display for displaying a power consumption indicator corresponding to the power consumption level of the device. The power consumption level may be calculated by a power consumption calculator. A touch interface may receive the user input configured to adjust the power consumption level of the device. An operational characteristic changer may thereby change the operational characteristic. The user input may manipulate the power consumption indicator to adjust the power consumption level to a desired power consumption level. A corresponding method and computer program product are also provided.
