Abstract
Power savings is provided to users of various electronic devices by monitoring the times and locations at which those users activate, deactivate, or otherwise change an operational state of one or more functional elements of a device. Other contextual or environmental information can be captured as well when the user performs such an action. One or more statistical analysis or prediction algorithms can be used to determine when and/or where the user is likely to repeat the one or more actions, where a confidence level of the prediction can be impacted at least in part by the environmental and contextual factors. When a prediction has a minimum level of confidence, a corresponding action can be performed automatically by the device when the relevant factors are met. Changes in behavior can be monitored such that the predictions can be refined over time.
