Abstract
The techniques described herein monitor, store, and evaluate network information associated with an application to determine a connectivity option to use to communicate data. A connectivity option includes a network interface and a type of network connection. The determination is made based on power consumption information associated with available connectivity options. Consequently, a device on which the application is installed can better manage its power consumption associated with network communications.
