Original Abstract Submitted
techniques are provided for optimizing the power consumption of a data storage device included in a battery-operated device. the battery-operated device (e.g., portable devices like wearable devices, smartwatches, and mobile phones) can access certain data stored on the data storage device more frequently when the device operates on battery power as compared to when the device does not operate on battery power. techniques are provided for identifying and classifying data into different classifications, for example, power sensitive data and non-power sensitive data. then the device can optimize the battery power consumption of the data storage device by storing or relocating data stored at the data storage device based on the classification of the data.
