—Sensor network MAC protocols usually employ periodic sleep and wakeup, achieving low duty-cycle to save energy and to increase the lifetime of battery-powered sensor devices. Ho...
Most sensor network applications require quality of service guarantees on a network-wide basis, suggesting the need for global network cost optimization. The dynamic and nonunifor...
: In this paper, we present a two-tiered scheduling approach for effective energy conservation in wireless sensor networks. The effectiveness of this mechanism relies on dynamicall...
Various architectural power reduction techniques have been proposed for on-chip caches in the last decade. In this paper, we first show that these power reduction techniques can b...
