The energy efficiency of handheld devices is of prime importance for sustainable use of the device. Watermarking, extraction, compression, decompression, encryption, and decryption are some of the tasks which can be performed on handheld devices. Earlier, a study on the effect of watermarking of digital content and its effect on energy efficiency was carried out. In this paper, a comparative analysis of energy efficiency in handheld devices is presented. The comparison, based on hardware and software platforms, focuses on computing systems and handheld devices. Multimedia content such as digital images, videos, and audio files are also considered in the following study. Energy efficiency in handheld devices can be improved by offloading compute-intensive tasks to the remote server which forms the research work by the author in the future. The tasks which are less compute-intense can be performed in handheld devices which can result in energy savings in the devices. |
