The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Fast app launching for mobile devices using predictive user context (2012, background): “Trace-based analysis shows that an average user saves around 6 seconds per app startup time with daily energy cost of no more than 2% battery life, and on average gets content that is only 3 minutes old at launch without needing to wait for content to update.”
Profiling resource usage for mobile applications: a cross-layer approach (2011, background): “, 3gTest [19], LiveLab [28], and [14]) collect traces from real smartphone users, focusing on characterization at only IP and higher layers.”
An in-depth study of LTE: effect of network protocol and application behavior on performance (2013, background): “Prior efforts [8, 30, 23] deployed smartphone user studies and collected data from tens to hundreds of participating users.”
The Smartphone Psychology Manifesto (2012, methodology): “…data, especially for energy-hungry GPS sampling, so psych apps need to maximize energy efficiency through context-aware sampling rates and logging intervals and through piggybacking on data already logged by the smartphone’s native software (Chalmers, 2011; Shepard et al., 2011; Wang et al., 2009).”
