There is still much debate about how it should be defined and what topics it embraces. It remains largely loc... Read More about Information literacy, policy issues and employability.

OPENsenima - Open Source Energy Interceptors for Mobile Apps (Guest Technical Presentation). (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chinenyeze, S. (2014). OPENsenima - Open Source Energy Interceptors for Mobile Apps (Guest Technical Presentation). In Presentations in 2nd GreenCode Lab Euro Conference

In software engineering interceptors are components (or pattern - a way of design) that changes or augments the usual processing cycle of a system. Interceptors can be used for intelligent decision making which consequently improves the user experien...
