Abstract
The present application relates to carrying out energy management based on context information. In the method, apparatus and system according to the application, a context vector () is used to select a operational state plurality of operational state vectors (). The plurality of operational state vectors are indicative of the state and/or energy consumption of different operational units in the corresponding context. The selected operational state vectors are then used together in adapting an operational state of the operational units according to the needs in the context (). There is also a method and devices for forming a data structure () that can be used in the selection of the operational state vectors. The method can be used in the energy management of mobile devices, where the operational units are components of these devices and the context can include data from sensors. The method may use an associative memory such as a sparse distributed memory in storing operational state vectors.
