1. A method of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- detecting, by a first processor, that a state of the electronic device is changed, using at least one sensor;
determining, by the first processor, whether a degree by which the state of the electronic device is changed is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold;
in response to determining that the degree is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold, transmitting, by the first processor, information associated with the state of the electronic device to a second processor; and
controlling, by the second processor, a position measuring module to measure a position of the electronic device at a set time which is scheduled to measure the position of the electronic device, in response to receiving the information associated with the state of the electronic device from the first processor,wherein controlling the position measuring module further comprises controlling, by the second processor, when the second processor does not receive the information from the first processor or receives information that the degree is less than the predetermined threshold, the position measuring module such that the position measuring module does not measure the position of the electronic device at the set time.

Abstract
An operating method of an electronic device is provided. The method includes determining, by a first processor using at least one sensor, whether a state change occurs, if it is determined that there is the state change, determining, by the first processor, whether to transmit state information to a second processor, and determining, by the second processor, whether to measure a changed position at each of set periods using a position measuring module on the basis of whether the state information is received.

6. An electronic device comprising:
-
at least one sensor configured to detect a state of the electronic device; a position measuring module configured to measure a position of the electronic device; a first processor; and a second processor, wherein the first processor is configured to; detect that the state of the electronic device is changed, using the at least one sensor, determine whether a degree by which the state of the electronic device is changed is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, and in response to determining that the degree is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold, transmit information associated with the state of the electronic device to the second processor, wherein the second processor is configured to; control the position measuring module to measure the position of the electronic device at a set time which is scheduled to measure the position of the electronic device, in response to receiving the information associated with the state of the electronic device from the first processor, and wherein the second processor is further configured to control, when the second processor does not receive the information from the first processor or receives information that the degree is less than the predetermined threshold, the position measuring module such that the position measuring module does not measure the position of the electronic device at the set time. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 13)

11. At least one non-transitory processor readable medium for storing a computer program of instructions configured to be readable by at least one processor for instructing the at least one processor to execute a computer process for performing a method comprising:
-
detecting, by a first processor, that a state of a electronic device is changed, using at least one sensor; determining, by the first processor, whether a degree by which the state of the electronic device is changed is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold; in response to determining that the degree is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold, transmitting, by the first processor, information associated with the state of the electronic device to a second processor; and controlling, by the second processor, a position measuring module to measure a position of the electronic device at a set time which is scheduled to measure the position of the electronic device, in response to receiving the information associated with the state of the electronic device from the first processor, wherein controlling the position measuring module further comprise controlling, by the second processor, when the second processor does not receive the information from the first processor or receives information that the degree is less than the predetermined threshold, the position measuring module such that the position measuring module does not measure the position of the electronic device at the set time. - View Dependent Claims (14)
