Abstract
This study investigates users' behavior and timing of mobile charging stations to understand the user behaviors and dependence of users on their mobile devices. Data has been gathered from the charging stations from different locations in Saudi Arabia and thereby users' behavior of charging station has been traced and modeled. This study finding enhances predictability of peak and off peak hours of using mobile charging stations. Thus, it is easy to optimize the energy efficiency of the whole system. The investigation provides significant insights for designing and optimizing of charging stations and similar technologies. Therefore, results of this study offer better design of information and communication technology services of the futures with much convenient of users and much lower emission footprints
