Abstract

Embodiments relate to a computer system and computer program product for allocating resources and settings in order to optimize application satisfaction in view of hardware resources and adjustable software configurations. As applications are executed on a computing device, usage data is tracked, adjustable settings are identified, and power consumption of each application under different settings is measured. The usage data is then compiled, an optimal configuration setting is assessed for each application, and the setting is conveyed and applied to one or more applications.
