DOIAbstract
Mobile devices are the most popular kind of computational device in the world. These devices have morelimited resources than personal computers and battery consumption is always under user?s eye sincemobile devices rely on their battery as energy supply. On the other hand, nowadays most applicationsare developed using object-oriented paradigm, which has some inherent features, like object creation,that consume important amounts of energy in the context of mobile development. These features areresponsible for offering maintainability and flexibility, among other software quality-related advantages.Then, this chapter aims to present an analysis to evaluate the trade-off between object-oriented designpurity and battery consumption. As a result...
