You want to get up to speed quickly and maintain a constant speed, this will be more efficient than very slowly accelerating over a long period of time, you don't want to put your foot to the floor though, maybe 1/8 to 1/4 throttle for me.
When you anticipate slowing down up ahead lift off the gas pedal, let the car slow itself down without using the brakes, downshift when necessary so you don't lug the engine, keep the engine >1,000 rpm.
