Abstract
This disclosure provide various techniques for decreasing the amount of energy consumed on an electronic device by one or more background processes. By implementing a fast energy accounting engine that may quickly detect changes in energy usage by the background processes and report the changes to a dynamic activity scheduler, a system may decrease the overall energy consumed by the one or more background processes.
