Abstract
The present disclosure provides example methods operable by computing device. An example method may include querying a location of a computing device with a first frequency. The method may also include accumulating data on the computing device over a time period. The data may include respective locations of the computing device during the time period with respect to the time of day and at increments based on the first frequency. The method may also include determining a model of the location of the computing device with respect to the time of day based on the accumulated data. The method may also include comparing the current location of the computing device to the model. If the current location of the computing device is consistent with the model, the method may also include querying the location of the computing device with a second frequency.
