ABSTRACT
Receiving push notifications is one of the key features of smartwatches. In our recent measurement study involving 27 smartwatch users [1], we found that push notifications are used by more than 200 applications, dominated by instant messaging, emails, social media, etc. In this work, we propose a suite of methods to optimize the performance, energy efficiency, and usability of smartwatch push notifications, which have several salient features distinguishing them from regular notifications received on a smartphone: requiring heavy phonewatch cooperation, being delivered over short-range Bluetooth link, and incurring non-trivial energy consumption on watches with very limited battery capacity. Considering these factors, our proposed work focuses on four aspects as elaborated.

Energy efficient IO stack design for wearable device
SAC '19: Proceedings of the 34th ACM/SIGAPP Symposium on Applied ComputingIn this paper, we visit the energy consumption issue of the IO subsystem for wearable device. We argue that the IO stack for wearable device is subject to extreme inefficiency in terms of the IO volume and the number of flush requests. The deficiency of ...
