In this thesis, we develop a simulator for estimating the energy consumed in executing tasks on a mobile device - the Palm Pilot. We measured the energy consumed by each instruction of the device's assembly language and incorporated these measurements into a public domain emulator for the Palm Pilot. This emulator is cycle accurate and therefore our energy estimates for running high-level tasks is also quite accurate. We validated our simulator via a series of benchmarks where predicted and measured values of energy consumed are compared. Finally, to illustrate how the simulator can be used for energy saving purposes, different versions of a Palm Pilot cryptographic application are analyzed. / Graduation date: 2001

Wireless is getting more important and popular because its convenience and portability make things easier. The goal of this project is to develop a mobile vehicle application called MOBILE USED CAR PRICES AND INFORMATION and this application will provide the prices and information for clients. The client can use their Palm handheld devices to read the prices and information whenever they want to check.
