| Mobile Devices and Battery Life The ever increasing capabilities provided by smartphones, tablets, Ultrabooks™, and notebooks makes power efficiency more critical so that battery life keeps up with on-the-go use. Energy efficient software enables devices to support more exciting usages available when we need them. |
Energy Usage For servers, workstations, desktops, and mobile devices that are plugged in drawing power off the energy grid, the challenge is to do more with less power. With corporations and countries looking for ways to conserve energy and support a healthy environment, software needs to be optimized to reduce power usage while still delivering the performance and quality that users expect. |
