Artifact for A Survey on Techniques to Profile the Energy Consumption of Android Applications

To ensure availability and reproducibility, we have made all study artifacts publicly available for "A Survey on Techniques to Profile the Energy Consumption of Android Applications", a paper submitted to ACM Computing Surveys. In this study, we review state-of-the-art software-based energy profilers tailored for Android applications and propose a novel taxonomy for comparative analysis. We provide a brief overview of these energy profilers and compare their features. Based on the conducted literature review, we present conceptual architectures of the different types of software-based energy profilers to help build a tool that addresses the existing limitations in energy profiling.
