Hibernation Mechanism in Smartphone Mobile Operating Systems

Abstract

Smartphone technology is advancing at a rapid pace. They are able to run more applications at a time which needs proper management of running processes especially when the processes are accidently lost due to critical battery that causes the device switch off. Therefore data loss occurs and there is no option to retrieve the lost data.

In this paper, Hibernation approach for smartphones mobile operating system has been considered. Initially working of smart phones has been analyzed in order to find out their working mechanism. Hibernation approach is also discussed along with its structure. A mechanism has been proposed for smartphones based on hibernation called Hibernation Mechanism in Smartphones (HMS). HMS has been proposed for Smartphones in order to prevent application losses, thereby, giving proper management to smartphone users.

Keywords:Hibernation Mechanism in Smartphones (HMS), Prevent application losses and Proper management.
