Resource friendly platform requirements for portable computers using broadband applications

Abstract

This research discloses the practical resource consumption of portable computers using broadband applications using IPv4 and IPv6. We tested with major broadband applications in a variety of operating system and network connections to verify the resource consumption. Resource consumption can be power consumption, bus utilization, device utilization, and processor utilization. Past application ignores its resource management which affects the efficiency of the usage. With collaboration and management of devices and its resource availability, effective use of resources can be performed resulting in the extension of battery time, lowering the heat, and economizing the bus utilization. Furthermore, this research introduces the sample application with the transport method for lazy resource adaptive streams using DVTS in IPv6, which effectively reduces the resource consumption. Implementation of resource management feature into a typical computer infrastructure may decrease the power consumption, and power conservation.
