Is it possible to re-assign the Win + L hotkey to another executable/shortcut? Use-case - I would like to switch off the monitor of my laptop as soon as it is locked. I know of a executable which can lock and turn off the monitor but I do not want to change the way the system is locked (by running the program explicitly or by some other...
Are there any tools and techniques to build more energy efficient applications? Any articles, rules or best practices for green programming? ...
I want to measure the energy consumption of my own application (which I can modify) 3rd party applications (which I can't modify) on Windows CE 5.0 Windows Mobile 5/6 Is there some kind of API for this? If not, can I measure other values which I can use to estimate the energy consumption? I don't need an exact value like 20 m...
I heard a rumor, that Java consumes less energy than PHP and was wondering if and how this would be true. I'm currently working in a company where we base most of our apps on PHP. Power consumption has never been the problem for us, but we are working on bigger projects where it might matter. We love PHP for web developing and are wonder...
I've developed and tested a C program on my PC and now I want to give an estimate of the power consumption required for the program to do a single run. I've analysised the running time of the application and of invidiual function calls within the application and I know the code size both in assembly lines, but also raw C lines. How woul...
Hi, I have a (theoretical) network with N nodes, each with their own fixed location. Each node sends one message per cycle, which needs to reach the root either directly or via other nodes. The energy cost of sending a message from node A to node B is the distance between them, squared. The challenge is how to link these nodes, in a ...
http://apps1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/energyplus/ I am researching about this software at the moment and I am wondering : How many people actually know how to use this software? Please identify yourself if you do. How many companies are using this to run energy saving simulations at the moment? Please list any you know. Is it integra...
Hello, I have implemented a routing protocol on an Android 1.6 mobile that uses wireless (ad-hoc) network in order to exchange messages. Now I would like to evaluate it under an energy consumption point of view, the base would be to try to calculate the energy wasted to transmit a single packet, do anybody has any idea how to do that? So...
I undertaking a personal project which involves the development of a system which will automatically generate audio thumbnail clips (about 30 seconds in length) from a full length track. In order to do this I want to look at the energy and pitch of the audio to try and correctly identify its major structural features. Is there any open...

Hi guys, I'm trying to write an .m file to extract energy features from an audio track but I seem to be having trouble in its implementation: % Formula for calculating RMS [f, fs, nb] = wavread('Three.wav'); frameWidth=441; %10ms numSamples=length(x); numFrames=(numSamples/1); energy(frame)=0; for frame=1:numFrames, startSample=...
