Abstract

A method and system are for generating a report for delivery to or access or query by a network operator by determining, by a server-side proxy, optimization efficiency for traffic in a wireless network, tracking, by the server-side proxy, user-related information in the wireless network, generating, based on at least one of the optimization efficiency and the user-related information, a report for delivery to or access by an operator of the wireless network, the report including an alert of viral take-up of a new application, and performing, by the server-side proxy, traffic optimization functions alleviating traffic in the wireless network.

Claims

1-20. -20. (canceled)

21. A mobile device comprising:

a memory;

and a processor, the mobile device configured for;

adjusting a timing of background application data requests in order to conserve battery;

monitoring battery resource consumption of multiple applications operating on a mobile device;

monitoring a time of use of the multiple applications operating on the mobile device;

generating a first report that displays battery consumption, wherein the first report displays battery resource consumption of the multiple applications operating on the mobile device, including battery resource consumption of background application data requests and battery resource consumption relative to a unit of time; and

generating a second report that displays the time of use of the multiple applications on the mobile device.

22. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein adjusting a timing of background application data requests includes adjusting timing of background application data requests while a screen of the mobile device is off.

23. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein the second report is generated on a weekly basis.

24. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein the first report is generated on a daily basis.

25. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein the unit of time includes an hour of time.

26. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein the first report displays battery resource consumption of the multiple applications by arranging the applications in descending order relative to their respective battery resource consumption.

27. The mobile device of claim 26, wherein the battery resource consumption includes a percentage relative to full charge of battery consumption.

28. The mobile device of claim 26, wherein the second report is generated for another mobile device.

29. The mobile device of claim 21, wherein adjusting a timing is enabled on an application by application basis.
