Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

As the "communication terminal" (or simply "terminal") and "electronic equipment" used in the embodiments of this application, include, but are not limited to, set to be connected via wired lines (such as via the public switched telephone network (PSTN), digital Subscriber line (DSL), digital cable, direct cable connection, and/or another data connection/network) and/or via (for example, for cellular networks, wireless local area networks (WLAN), digital television networks such as DVB-H networks, Satellite network, AM-FM broadcast transmitter, and/or another communication terminal's wireless interface to receive/transmit communication signals. A communication terminal set to communicate through a wireless interface may be referred to as a "wireless communication terminal", a "wireless terminal" and/or an "electronic device". Examples of electronic equipment and terminals include, but are not limited to, satellites or cellular phones; personal communication system (PCS) terminals that can combine cellular radio phones with data processing, fax, and data communication capabilities; can include radio phones, pagers, and Internet/Intranet PDA with access, web browser, memo pad, calendar, and/or GPS receiver; and conventional laptop and/or handheld receivers, game consoles, or other electronic devices including radio telephone transceivers . The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

Nowadays, the memory and storage capacity of electronic devices such as mobile phones are getting larger and larger, and there are more and more applications that can be installed on electronic devices. Various types of applications can be installed in electronic devices for users with different needs. And use.

When the application is running, each application will occupy a certain amount of memory and store its own data in the memory. With the operation of electronic devices, there are more and more running applications, which will occupy more and more memory and less and less free memory. When the free memory of the electronic device does not meet the memory requirements, it is necessary to correct The memory occupied by the application program is recycled to ensure that the free memory of the electronic device meets the memory demand.

Many users of electronic devices may have installed dozens or even hundreds of applications on their electronic devices. With so many applications, the traditional memory recycling scheme keeps the memory occupied by the applications currently running in the foreground from being recycled. Releasing the memory occupied by other applications, so as to ensure the smooth running of foreground applications. However, the inventor found that such a recycling scheme emptied the data loaded in the memory by the application, and other applications need to reload the data the next time they are opened, which makes the opening speed of the application slower.

Based on this problem, the inventor has conducted a lot of repeated research and found that the protected application can be set by improving the memory recovery rules to ensure that the memory occupied by the protected application is not recovered when the memory is recovered, and the unprotected application is recovered. Occupied memory, which can free up memory, and the protected application will load faster the next time it starts.

However, the inventor further discovered that based on the fixed memory recovery rules, the protected applications are very limited. When the user's habitual operation changes, the above-mentioned memory recovery solution cannot significantly improve the startup speed of the application. For example, many of the multiple applications of electronic devices have been used by users only once or twice before they have never used them again. In fact, there are only a few applications that users use most often every day, and they are the most frequently used applications. There are only a few types of programs, and the types of applications most commonly used by different groups of people and the time of use are also different. For example, girls use social applications and shopping applications very frequently every night, while boys use games, The frequency of using news applications in the morning is very high, so every electronic device user will have his or her most frequently used applications and are different from others.

Since each user has his or her most frequently used application, the user must be very concerned about the experience of these commonly used applications, and especially hope that the startup time of these applications is very short. Therefore, the inventor is committed to studying how to manage applications and memory allocation schemes according to the user's use of the application, and based on this, proposes the application management method provided by the embodiments of the present application. In this method, the electronic device is preset There are user preference data corresponding to each application. The user preference data reflects the user's usage habits of the application, for example, reflects the distribution of the application frequency over time, or/and, reflects the application frequency in the scene The electronic device can obtain the current environment data of the current environment, and according to the current environment data and user preference data, determine the application that needs to be preloaded among multiple applications, and start the application that needs to be preloaded The data is loaded into the memory of the electronic device. Therefore, the application management method provided by the embodiments of the present application can flexibly determine the pre-loaded application according to the current environment of the electronic device and user preference data, even if the application is not executed in the foreground, but is used frequently In higher scenarios, it is pre-launched in the background, so when the user opens the pre-loaded application, it is not necessary to reload the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application can be significantly increased.

In a specific application, please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of one of the application scenarios of the application management method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The application management method is applied to the electronic device 100, and the electronic device 100 may be It is not limited to electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers, and game consoles. The electronic device 100 of this embodiment is described by taking a mobile phone as an example.

The electronic device 100 is configured with a plurality of application programs. In the application scenario shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device 100 is running the application program A in the foreground, and the application program is not running in the background, so as to ensure that the electronic device 100 has sufficient memory resources to maintain the normal operation of the application program A. When the environmental data of the electronic device 100 meets the predetermined environmental conditions, the startup data of the application B and the application C are loaded into the memory, that is, the electronic device 100 starts the application B and the application C in the background. The aforementioned predetermined environmental conditions may include environmental factors such as time conditions and scene conditions.

For example, in some embodiments, the electronic device 100 is preset with user preference data of each application program, and the user preference data is used to indicate the probability that the application program is invoked in the corresponding environment, and the electronic device 100 can be based on the current The environment data and user preference data are determined in the current environment, application B and application C are more likely to be called, and the startup data of application B and application C are loaded into the memory. When the user exits When application A is in the foreground, it is more likely to start application B or application C. Then when the user starts application B or application C, since both have been started in the background in advance, application B or application C The opening speed is faster. According to the above application scenario, it can be understood that when the above application management method is executed, the electronic device 100 can run the application A in the foreground, or it does not need to run any application in the foreground, and is not limited to this embodiment. description.

Please refer to FIG. 2. The application management method provided by the embodiment of the present application determines the pre-loaded application according to the current environment of the electronic device and user preference data. Therefore, when the user opens the pre-loaded application, it is not necessary to restart the application. Load the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application can be significantly increased. Once the application management method provided in the embodiment of the present application is triggered, the process of the method in the embodiment can be automatically run by the electronic device, wherein each step can be performed sequentially in the sequence as in the flowchart when running, or Multiple steps are carried out at the same time according to the actual situation, which is not limited here. The application management method may include steps S101 to S107.

Step S101: Acquire current environment data of the environment where the electronic device is currently located.

The environmental data may include at least one of time data and scene data.

For example, if the environmental data includes time data, the current point in time of the electronic device can be acquired, and the current point in time can be used as the current environmental data of the environment in which the electronic device is currently located. Optionally, the time period to which the current time point belongs can also be used as the current environment data to improve the adaptability and fault tolerance of the method, where the time period is a plurality of sections divided according to the time of day.

For another example, if the environment data includes scene data, the current scene of the electronic device can be acquired, and the current scene can be used as the current environment data of the environment in which the electronic device is currently located. The environment image and the sound of the current environment determine the current scene of the electronic device.

Step S103: Obtain user preference data of each application program.

The electronic device is preset with user preference data corresponding to each application. The user preference data reflects the user’s usage habits of the application, for example, reflects the distribution of the application’s frequency of use over time, or/and, reflects the application’s The distribution of frequency of use on the scene. Therefore, the user preference data is used to indicate the probability of the application being invoked in the corresponding environment, which can be expressed as the user preference. The application can be invoked by the user or other applications. The higher the user preference, the greater the possibility of indicating that the application is invoked, the lower the user preference, the less likely the indicating application is invoked, and the user preference can characterize the user’s preference. The degree of preference of the application. For any application, the user preference of the application in the current environment is determined according to the active duration of the application in the historical operation of the environment. For example, suppose the current environment data includes time data and the current time point is 9: 10. When the time period is 9:00-10:00, the user preference of the application is determined according to the active duration of the time period of 9:00-10:00 in the historical operation, for example, according to the application’s activity in the last week The active duration of the time period from 9:00 to 10:00 is determined, or according to the active duration of the application from 9:00 to 10:00 in the previous month, etc.

Step S105: According to the current environment data and the user preference data, determine the application program that needs to be preloaded among the multiple application programs.

In this step, the electronic device predicts the application program that the user is most likely to use in the next based on the user preference data determined in step S103. For example, according to the usage frequency and usage time of each application, generally speaking, after the electronic device has finished running the application, the usage time or exit time is recorded in the background file, and each application can be obtained by calling the relevant data through the program. usage time. The above-mentioned applications that need to be pre-loaded are the applications that the electronic device predicts that the user is most likely to use next. In a specific implementation, these applications that need to be pre-loaded can be one or more applications with a frequency of high to low. It can also be one or more applications whose use time is closest to the current time, that is, the last used application, or one or more applications whose use scene is closest to the current scene. In addition, you can The application programs that need to be preloaded are comprehensively determined by combining the frequency of use and the time of use, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Optionally, in addition to the above method, the electronic device can also estimate the application that the user will use next based on the use time of each application and the current time. For example, the user often uses a game from 7 to 9 in the evening. Software, use a certain video software after nine o'clock, based on this, you can also predict the application that the user may use in a certain period of time.

Step S107: Load the startup data of the application program that needs to be preloaded into the memory of the electronic device.

Based on the application program that needs to be preloaded determined in step S105, the electronic device obtains the startup data of the application program that needs to be preloaded through the network, and loads the startup data into the memory. For example, when the network performance of the electronic device is higher than the preset performance, the startup data of at least one application that needs to be preloaded is obtained from the network side. The electronic device sends a startup data acquisition request to the server corresponding to each application program that needs to be preloaded, and receives startup data returned by the server corresponding to each application program that needs to be preloaded.

In the application management method provided by the embodiments of the present application, the pre-loaded application can be flexibly determined according to the current environment of the electronic device and user preference data, even if the application is not executed in the foreground, but is used frequently In a higher environment, it is pre-started in the background, so when a user opens a pre-loaded application, it is not necessary to reload the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application can be significantly increased.

Based on the above-mentioned application management method, this embodiment of the present application also provides another application management method. In this method, the electronic device is preset with user preference data corresponding to each application, and the user preference data reflects the user’s preference for the application. The usage habits of the program, for example, reflect the distribution of the frequency of use of the application over time, or/and, reflect the distribution of the frequency of use of the application in the scene; the electronic device can obtain the current environmental data of the current environment, and according to Current environmental data and user preference data, determine the applications that need to be protected when reclaiming memory and the applications that need to be pre-loaded among multiple applications, and perform the memory recovery operation, and load the startup data of the applications that need to be pre-loaded to The memory of the electronic device. Therefore, the application management method provided by the embodiments of the present application can flexibly determine the pre-loaded application and the protected application according to the current environment of the electronic device and user preference data, and ensure the protected application when reclaiming the memory. The memory occupied by the application program is not recycled, which ensures that the electronic device has a large free memory while preventing the application program from being stuck; further, by pre-starting the application program that needs to be pre-loaded, the user is opening the pre-loaded application program It is not necessary to reload the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application program can be significantly increased, and therefore, the operating speed of the electronic device is generally improved.

Referring to FIG. 3, in a specific application, the aforementioned another application management method is applied to the scenario shown in FIG. 3. In the application scenario shown in FIG. 3, the electronic device 100 is running application A in the foreground, and applications B, C, D, and E are running in the background. At this time, the memory utilization rate of the electronic device 100 is relatively high, which may be Will affect the fluency of its system operation. When the free memory of the electronic device 100 is less than the memory threshold, the electronic device 100 can determine that in the current environment, the protected applications are application A and application B according to the current environment data and user preference data, and determine the application F is more likely to be called, then the electronic device 100 performs a memory recovery operation to protect the memory occupied by application A and application B, and recover the memory occupied by other applications, and the electronic device 100 stores the application The startup data of F is loaded into the memory, that is, the electronic device 100 starts the application B and the application F in the background at this time. According to the above application scenario, it can be understood that when the above application management method is executed, the electronic device 100 can run the application A in the foreground, or it does not need to run any application in the foreground, and is not limited to this embodiment. description.

Please refer to FIG. 4, another application management method provided by the embodiment of the present application, according to the environment in which the electronic device is located and user preference data, determines the applications that need to be protected and the applications that need to be preloaded when reclaiming the memory, and executes A memory recycling operation is performed, and the startup data of the application program to be preloaded is loaded into the memory of the electronic device. Therefore, when the user opens the pre-loaded application, it is not necessary to reload the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application can be significantly increased. It should be noted that the steps of the application management method in the embodiments of the present application can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although the logical sequence is shown in the specification, in some cases, Perform the steps shown or described in a different order than here. In this embodiment, the application management method may include steps S201 to S211.

Step S201: Determine user preference data corresponding to each application program according to the historical running data of each application program.

The electronic device can generate operating data for each application based on its operating status, and determine the user preference data corresponding to each application based on the multiple operating data of the application, so as to facilitate learning, summarizing, and summarizing the user's behavior habits. In some embodiments, step S201 may include step S2011 to step S2015:

Step S2011: Obtain historical operation data of each application program when the electronic device is running. The historical operation data includes active duration and runtime environmental data.

The environmental data may include at least one of time data and scene data.

For example, if the environmental data includes time data, the current time point of the electronic device can be obtained, and the time period to which the time point belongs can be determined, and the time period can be used as the current environmental data of the environment where the electronic device is currently located. The time period can be divided into one day in advance. For example, the time period may include a time period corresponding to the morning, a time period corresponding to noon, or a time period corresponding to the evening, and the duration of each time period may be 8 hours. Optionally, the time period can be determined according to the user's physiological work and rest. The time period during which a certain physiological work and rest behavior occurs can be taken as the time period. For example, the lunch time period can be taken as a time period, and the dinner time period can be taken as a time period. Regarding the sleeping time period as a time period, etc., by this way of determining the time period, the timeliness of the user preference data can be improved. Therefore, the electronic device can have multiple time periods determined according to the rules.

For another example, if the environment data includes scene data, the current scene of the electronic device can be acquired, and the current scene can be used as the current environment data of the environment in which the electronic device is currently located. The environment image and the sound of the current environment determine the current scene of the electronic device. Specific scenes can include: public transportation scenes (such as subway, bus, high-speed rail, airplane, etc. scenes), leisure scenes (such as bedroom, living room, garden, etc. scenes), work scenes (such as library, study, office, etc. scenes) Therefore, the electronic device can be built with multiple scenes determined according to the rules.

In some embodiments, the time period and the scene together define the use environment of the electronic device. For example, if the electronic device is in a bedroom scene in the night time period, it is considered that the bedroom scene in the night time period jointly defines the sleeping environment of the electronic device, so that the subsequent user preference data corresponding to the sleeping environment can be used to determine what needs to be preloaded. Apps and protected apps.

The active duration reflects the degree of activity of the application in the environment in the historical operation. In the embodiment of the present application, the active duration can be understood as the duration of the application running in the foreground. Whenever an application is running in the foreground for a certain time, the electronic device can record the active duration: when the application starts to run in the foreground, the electronic device can record the current time point as the start time point of the active duration. When the foreground is running, the electronic device can record the current time point as the end time point of the active duration, calculate the time difference between the end time point and the start time point, and obtain the active duration of the application running in the foreground this time. For example, when the application starts to run in the foreground at 9:00 and ends at 9:10, the active duration of the recording is 10 minutes.

The specific method of counting the active time includes: whenever the electronic device starts to enter any time period, that is, when the current time point is the starting point of the time period, accumulate the active time length of each application from zero, and when leaving the time period, That is, when the current time point is the end point of the time period, the accumulated active duration of each application in the time period is ended, the accumulated active time length of each application in the time period is stored, and the next statistical process is started. Accumulate from scratch, and so on. Among them, for the process of accumulating active duration in each time period, each application can be active one or more times in each time period. When the application is active for the first time in each time period, it can start from zero Record the active duration of the application until the application is suspended, and when the application is active for the second time to the Nth time, this time can be increased on the basis of the active duration of the application in the recorded time period Active active duration.

Illustratively, assuming that the current time point falls into the time period 8:00-10:00, if application A is active for the first time in this time period and has been active for 5 minutes, then the active duration of application A at this time is 5 minutes If application A is active for the second time and is active for 10 minutes, then the active duration of application A is 5+10=15 minutes. If application A is active for the third time and is active for 8 minutes, then When the active duration of application A is 15+8=23 minutes, and when it reaches 10:00 at the current time point, the total active duration of the application is 23 minutes during the time period from 8:00 to 10:00; enter the next During a period of time from 10:00 to 13:00, the active duration of application A will be counted from 0 again.

Optionally, whenever the electronic device acquires the active duration of a certain application running in the foreground at a certain time, it can acquire the time period and the current date to which the current point of time belongs as the recording date, and acquire the application identifier and current scene of the application , Record the corresponding relationship between the active duration, time period, recording date, current scene, and application identifier, so that the active duration can be obtained subsequently according to the corresponding relationship. Exemplarily, the electronic device may record "00:00-08:00 (time period), bedroom (scene) December 7th (recording date), APP1 (application program identifier), 50 minutes (active duration)".

It should be noted that this step 201 may be executed by the activity management service (Activity Manager Service, AMS) of the electronic device. AMS is the core service of the Android operating system. In the implementation, the program code of AMS can be improved, and program code that counts the active duration of each application running in the foreground can be added to the program code of AMS so that AMS can load and When running the program code, the function of counting the active time can be realized.

The electronic device generates operating data of the application program according to the active duration and the current use environment. Each time the application runs, the corresponding running data is generated and saved. Therefore, the historical operating data of the application can be continuously updated during the continuous use of the user, which can facilitate the application management method provided by the embodiment of the present application to obtain the user preference data of the application in a dynamic self-learning manner, even if the user’s The method is still applicable if the behavior changes.

Step S2013: When the storage period of the historical operation data of the application program exceeds the predetermined period of time, analyze the historical operation data.

Based on the operating data generated in step S2011, the historical data of the application can be obtained. When the historical data is stored for a long time (for example, greater than or equal to one week), it can be considered that the user has formed a relatively stable operating habit. Analyze historical operating data to facilitate the acquisition of the user’s operating habits of the application.

Step S2014: Determine the user preference data of each application program according to the historical operation data.

The user preference data reflects the user's usage habits of the application, for example, reflects the distribution of the frequency of use of the application over time, or/and reflects the distribution of the frequency of use of the application on the scene. Therefore, the user preference data is used to indicate the probability of the application being invoked in the corresponding environment, which can be expressed as the user preference. The application can be invoked by the user or other applications. The higher the user preference, the greater the possibility of indicating that the application is invoked, the lower the user preference, the less likely the indicating application is invoked, and the user preference can characterize the user’s preference. The degree of preference of the application. For any application, the user preference of the application in the current environment is determined according to the active duration of the application in the environment in the historical operation.

When determining the user preference data of the foreground application in the corresponding historical environment according to the active duration, use the active duration of a certain application in the current environment as the user preference data of the application (that is, the preference in the environment), or / And, the ratio between the active duration of the application and the total active duration is used as user preference data, where the total active duration refers to the sum of the active durations of multiple applications corresponding to the environment in the historical operation, thus The accuracy of user preference data statistics can be improved, so that the accuracy of subsequent applications that need to be preloaded based on user preference data can be guaranteed.

In this embodiment, when determining the user preference data corresponding to each application according to the historical operating data of each application, the historical environment data of the environment in which the electronic device is located during the historical operation of each application, and each The active time of the application in the historical environment data is determined, and the user preference data of each application in the corresponding historical environment can be determined, which can more accurately count the user's personal operating habits, so as to facilitate the subsequent pre-loading of the application according to the user's personal operating habits . It should be understood that, when each application is running in the foreground, its operating data and corresponding current environment data are written into the historical operating data, then step S201 may include: when one of the multiple applications is started and is running When the foreground is running, use it as the foreground application; obtain the environmental data of the environment in which the electronic device is located when the foreground application is running; obtain the active duration of the foreground application corresponding to the environmental data; and determine whether the foreground application is in the corresponding User preference data for historical environments.

Step S203: Acquire current environment data of the environment where the electronic device is currently located.

The environmental data may include at least one of time data and scene data. For the execution steps of obtaining the current environment data, please refer to the data and obtaining means described above.

If the current environment data includes time data, step S203 may include: acquiring the current time point of the electronic device when the electronic device is running; and using the time period to which the current time point belongs as the current environment data of the environment where the electronic device is currently located.

If the current environment data includes scene data, the current scene of the electronic device can be obtained, and the current scene can be used as the current environment data of the environment in which the electronic device is currently located. The environment image and the sound of the current environment determine the current scene of the electronic device.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may also be equipped with a voice collection device, which is used to collect voice information in the surrounding environment and send the collected voice information to the electronic device. The electronic device can perform feature extraction on the collected voice information, and input the extracted feature information into a pre-trained scene recognition model to obtain a recognition result, where the recognition result may include that the voice information was collected in a certain predetermined scene Probability. Then, the electronic device can compare the probability with the probability threshold to determine whether the probability is greater than the probability threshold. In response to the electronic device determining that the probability is greater than the probability threshold, the electronic device may determine that the current usage scenario of the navigation application is the predetermined scenario. For example, specific predetermined scenes can include: public transportation scenes (such as subway, bus, high-speed rail, airplane, etc. scenes), leisure scenes (such as bedroom, living room, garden, etc. scenes), work scenes (such as library, study, office, etc.) Waiting for the scene). The electronic device can determine the scene in which it is located through the collection of environmental voice and feature recognition.

In some other embodiments, the location information of the electronic device and the environmental voice information, or the location information of the electronic device and the environmental image information may be combined to determine the scene where the electronic device is located.

The locator is used to locate the electronic device to reduce the scope of subsequent scene determination, thereby improving the accuracy of scene determination. The image collection device can be used to collect image information in the surrounding environment and send the collected image information to the electronic device. The electronic device can perform feature extraction on the collected image information, and input the extracted feature information into a pre-trained scene recognition model to obtain a recognition result, where the recognition result may include that the image information was collected in a certain predetermined scene Probability. Then, the electronic device can compare the probability with the probability threshold to determine whether the probability is greater than the probability threshold. In response to the electronic device determining that the probability is greater than the probability threshold, the electronic device may determine that the current usage scenario of the navigation application is the predetermined scenario. Based on this, the electronic device can determine the scene in which it is located by collecting and identifying features of the environment, combined with positioning information.

Based on this, step S203 may include: when the electronic device is running, acquiring the current location information of the electronic device, acquiring the environment image of the environment where the electronic device is currently located through the camera of the electronic device; determining the scene data of the electronic device according to the location information and the environment image ; And according to the scene data, determine the current environment data.

Step S205: Obtain user preference data of each application.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may obtain user preference data corresponding to the current environment data for each application program according to the current environment data. Further, if the current environment changes, for example, the current time period has changed (for example, from the time period of 8:00 to 10:00 to the time period of 10:00 to 12:00), another example is the current time period. If the scene of the application changes (for example, from a leisure scene to a work scene), the user preference data of the application program is obtained again according to the changed current environment data, so that the method of this application can be based on the actual operating state of the electronic device. Changes and user habits are implemented to adapt to different application environments.

Step S207: According to the current environment data and the user preference data, determine the application program that needs to be preloaded among the multiple application programs.

In this step, the electronic device predicts which application the user is most likely to use in the next based on the user's preference data. The above-mentioned applications that need to be pre-loaded are the applications that the electronic device predicts that the user is most likely to use next. In a specific implementation, these applications that need to be pre-loaded can be one or more applications with a frequency of high to low. It can also be one or more applications whose use time is closest to the current time, that is, the last used application, or one or more applications whose use scene is closest to the current scene. In addition, you can The first application programs are comprehensively determined by combining the frequency of use and the time of use, and there is no restriction on this solution.

Electronic devices can also estimate the next application that the user will use based on the usage time of each application and the current time. For example, users often use a certain game software from 7 to 9 in the evening, and use a certain game software after 9 o’clock in the evening. Video software can also predict the pre-loaded applications that users may use in a certain period of time.

Step S209: Load the startup data of the application program that needs to be preloaded into the memory of the electronic device.

Optionally, in step S209, before or after loading the startup data of the application program, the memory of the electronic device may also be recycled to ensure that the electronic device has more free memory, thereby ensuring smoother system operation. Based on this, step S209 may include: determining applications that do not need to be loaded among multiple applications according to the applications that need to be loaded, and reclaiming the memory occupied by the applications that do not need to be loaded; determining the number of applications that need to be preloaded Boot data; and load the boot data to the memory of the electronic device. Identify the applications that do not need to be loaded among multiple applications; and reclaim the memory occupied by the applications that do not need to be loaded. Among them, it is determined that the application that does not need to be loaded among multiple applications can be determined according to the user preference of the application. For example, an application whose corresponding application preference in the current environment is less than the first preference threshold is determined to be unnecessary. Loaded application.

The electronic device can load the startup data of the application program that needs to be preloaded into the memory of the electronic device according to the current environment data (for example, time data, location information, scene information, etc.).

In some embodiments, if the current environment data includes time data, and the user preference data includes the startup time data of the application in historical operation; the electronic device determines the startup data of the application to be preloaded according to the startup time data and the advance time. Wherein, the advance time represents the difference between the time point when the startup data is loaded and the startup time data of the application that needs to be preloaded, and it can be any value between 1-10 minutes, such as 5 minutes; At the loading time point, the startup data of the application program that needs to be preloaded is loaded into the memory of the electronic device.

For example, user preference data shows that a news application is launched more frequently at the time of 19:00, and the start time data of the news application is 19:00, and the advance time is five minutes, then the news application is determined The loading time of the program is 18:55. If the electronic device obtains that the current time is 18:30, and the current time has not arrived, the startup data of the news application will not be loaded, and the startup data of the news application will be loaded until 18:55; if the current time has expired Enter between 18:55 and 19:00, then directly load the startup data of the news application.

In other embodiments, if the current environment data includes scene data (such as location information), and the user preference data includes the start location of the application in the historical operation; the electronic device determines the need according to the start location and the distance threshold in the historical operation. The loading geofence of the startup data of the preloaded application; wherein, the distance threshold represents the distance between the startup location data and the boundary of the loading geofence, and it can be any value between 1 and 1 km, such as 200 meters; When the electronic device enters the geofence, the application startup data to be preloaded is loaded into the memory of the electronic device.

For example, user preference data shows that a certain online car-hailing application is launched more frequently at the exit of a certain subway station, then the starting location data of the online car-hailing application is the exit of the subway station, and the distance threshold is 100 meters, then It is determined that the loaded geofence of the ride-hailing application is a geofence defined by a radius of 100 meters from the exit of the subway station. If the electronic device obtains that the current location does not fall into the loading geofence, it does not load the startup data of the ride-hailing application, and waits until the previous location falls into the loading geofence to load the startup data of the ride-hailing application; if it is currently If the location has fallen into the loading geofence, the startup data of the online car-hailing application will be loaded directly.

Step S211: Determine a control scheme for multiple application programs according to the free memory of the electronic device.

When the electronic device is running, the free memory is determined according to the preset cycle, and the control plan for multiple applications is determined according to the free memory, so as to reclaim the memory according to the preset rules to ensure that the electronic device has sufficient remaining memory to run the application .

Optionally, step S211 may include: when determining the control scheme for multiple applications according to the free memory, when it is detected that the free memory is less than the memory threshold, determining the application running in the background; Determine the application program to be recycled in the application program; and reclaim the memory occupied by the application program to be recycled. Among them, the application program to be recycled can be determined according to the user preference of the application program. For example, the application program whose corresponding application preference degree in the current environment is less than the first preference threshold is determined as the application program to be recycled application. In this embodiment, this step can be performed through a direct memory recovery mechanism. When any process requests memory from the electronic device, and the requested memory exceeds the free memory, the electronic device determines the user preference of each application running in the background, and then determines the application to be recycled, and the application to be recycled Provided to the process requesting the memory, the process requesting the memory transfers the data in the memory of the application to be reclaimed to a preset storage space, so as to reclaim the memory occupied by the application.

Optionally, step S211 may include: when it is detected that the free memory is less than the memory threshold, determining the protected application among multiple applications according to user preference data; Memory is released, and the system resources of the electronic device are preferentially allocated to protected applications. Among them, the application to be protected among multiple applications can be determined according to the user preference of the application. For example, an application whose corresponding application preference in the current environment is greater than the second preference threshold is determined to be protected application. Among them, the protected application program does not conflict with the above-mentioned application program that needs to be preloaded and the application program running in the foreground, and the application programs contained in the three may overlap.

In this embodiment, after releasing the memory, the electronic device grants the protected application the privilege of using system resources, and after selecting the protected application information from the application list, the system resource is allocated to the protected application first, thereby It can ensure the fast startup and smooth running of the application programs commonly used by the user in the current environment, and improve the user's experience of using the electronic device. Wherein, the priority allocation of system resources for the application program may specifically include at least one of the following operations: 1) Priority allocation of the CUP resources of the electronic device to the protected application program, so as to ensure the running speed and stability of the protected application program 2) Prioritize the allocation of continuous free memory to protected applications, reduce the memory recycling and memory swapping when the protected applications apply for memory, improve the efficiency of the application’s use of memory, and ensure the application 3) Keep the pre-loaded items of the application in the memory all the time, including when releasing the memory, the memory resources occupied by the application are not completely released immediately, but the pre-loaded items of the application are saved In the cache, in this way, when the application applies for memory resources next time, it can directly obtain the load data from the cache; 4) Prioritize input/output (IO) resources to the application to reduce the IO waiting time of the application. Reduce the slowness, jams, and pauses in the application.

In the application management method provided by the embodiments of the present application, the pre-loaded application and the protected application can be flexibly determined according to the current environment of the electronic device and user preference data, and the protected application can be ensured when reclaiming the memory. The memory occupied by the application program is not recycled, which ensures that the electronic device has a large free memory while preventing the application program from being stuck; further, by pre-starting the application program that needs to be pre-loaded, the user is opening the pre-loaded application program It is not necessary to reload the startup data, so that the startup speed of the application program can be significantly increased, and therefore, the operating speed of the electronic device is generally improved.
