— We present a performance evaluation of the Pulse protocol operating in a peer-to-peer mobile ad hoc network environment. The Pulse protocol utilizes a periodic flood (the puls...
1 A highly-efficient fetch unit is essential not only to obtain good performance but also to achieve energy efficiency. However, existing designs are inflexible and depending on pr...
A new gradient-based routing protocol is proposed in this paper. It takes into account the minimum hop count and remaining energy of each node while relaying data from source node ...
Sensor networks are designed especially for deployment in adverse and nonaccessible areas without a fixed infrastructure. Therefore, energy conservation plays a crucial role for t...
Recovering and reusing circuit energies that would otherwise be dissipated as heat can reduce the power dissipated by a VLSI chip. To accomplish this requires a power source that ...
