AppCompare: An App for Performance Evaluation

AppCompare compara estadísticamente el consumo de energía de las aplicaciones.

Resource scarcity is a major obstacle for many mobile applications, since devices have limited energy power and processing potential. Today, there are a multitude of applications that enables to observe the smartphone battery life. However, the existing alternatives have limitations for more sophisticated analyzes. Imagine the hypothetical scenario where you want to compare the energy expenditure of two applications. You want to know, for example, which application is consuming more battery (WhatsApp or Messenger). But, you want to check that with the following characteristics:

1. Statistical Basis

2. Repetition of Observations to Compose a Sample

3. Automatic Parametric Test Application

4. Automatic Generation of Comparative Charts

5. Send Results to a Server in the Cloud

6. Save the Results in a Log File

Here we present AppCompare, an application that covers the above functionalities.

AppCompare is a complete analytical application for statistically based researchers.
