Disclosed are an electronic device and a data compression method thereof. According to a data compression method of an electronic device of the present invention, the method comprises the steps of: compressing a page; determining whether data included in the compressed page is stored in a memory; and merging the compressed page with data previously stored in the memory when a result of the determination shows that the data included in the compressed page is the same as the previously stored data. Therefore, the electronic device can prevent a page including the same or similar data from being stored a multiple number of times in a swap area, thereby raising memory securing efficiency.

Electronic device and data compression method thereof

Provided are an electronic device and a page merging method therefor. The electronic device may include: a memory manager that initializes pages and determines a page as a target to be merged if the page is initialized to a preset specific value; and a memory for merging multiple pages determined as a target to be merged and storing the merged page. The electronic device can determine whether to merge pages with a small amount of computation and merge the pages according to the determination result. Hence, the electronic device can manage the memory in an efficient manner.

Electronic device and page merging method therefor

A method for managing an air conditioner is provided. The method includes determining a power consumption pattern of the air conditioner while controlling the air conditioner, based on at least one power consumption factor, calculating a threshold value of power consumption according to an operating time of the air conditioner based on distribution information of the determined power consumption pattern, determining whether a current power consumption is within a threshold value range of the calculated threshold value of power consumption, and generating and transmitting a signal to a manager server if the current power consumption is not within the threshold value range.
