A Run-Time Page Selection Methodology for Efficient Quality-Based Resuming

With the strong demands in the fast start-up of many mobile devices, hibernation has shown its clear superiority in such system designs. Different from the past work, a methodology is proposed to downsize the hibernation image without sacrificing the user experience in the resuming procedure of hibernation. Two approximation algorithms with bounds are proposed to remove selected pages from the hibernation image and shift them to page-in activities. The proposed methodology was evaluated over a series of experiments, for which we had more than 10% of improvement on the resuming time for many system configurations.
