Opportunity exist to introduce users to different application of resource constraint mobile device Currently, the client is forced to continuously poll for updates from potentially different data sources, such as, e-commerce, on-line auctions, stock and weather sites, to stay up to date with potential changes in content. We employ a pair of proxies, located on the mobile client and on a fully-connected edge server, respectively, to minimize the battery consumption caused by wireless data transfers to and from the mobile device. The client specifies his interest in changes to specific parts of pages by highlighting portions of already loaded web pages in her browser. The edge proxy polls the web servers involved, and if relevant change have occurred, it aggregates the updates as one batch to be sent to the client. The proxy running on the mobile device can pull these updates from the edge proxy, either on-demand or periodically, or can listen for pushed updates initiated by the edge proxy. We also use SMS messages to indicate available updates and to inform the user of which pages have changed. %K Mobile wireless communication %K proxy Process %K caching %K pre fetching %K energy measurement. %U http://www.bvicam.ac.in/bijit/Downloads/pdf/issue5/04.pdf
