1. A system comprising:

  • a memory area for storing a list of active threads being executed by a mobile computing device and a list of suspended threads, said memory area further storing a power priority value for each of the active threads and the suspended threads; and

    a processor programmed to;

    determine a power state of the mobile computing device;

    identify a threshold value associated with the determined power state;

    compare the identified threshold value to the power priority value for each of the active threads and suspended threads; and

    alter the list of active threads and the list of suspended threads as a function of said comparing to manage the power state of the mobile computing device.
