FOCUS: INTERNETWARE AND BEYOND

// Many smartphone application bugs compromise energy efficiency and performance, yet we lack powerful tools to address them. Examining their characteristics and diagnostic challenges offers a key step forward. // MOBILE INTERNETWARE applications seamlessly connect physical and cyber environments and provide smart services to users. However, unlike their desktop counterparts, smartphone applications run on resource-constrained platforms, so even small implementation inefficiencies can lead to a bad user experience. Ensuring a satisfactory user experience is a nontrivial task for developers, especially because many smartphone applications have these requirements:
