Toward energy-efficient computing

Energy Efficient Computing ArchItectures

The CAIRN project-team researches new architectures, algorithms and design methods for flexible, secure, fault-tolerant, and energy-efficient domain-specific system-on-chip (SOC). As performance and energy-efficiency requirements of SOCs, especially in the context of multi-core architectures, are continuously increasing, it becomes difficult for computing architectures to rely only on programma...

Energy-efficient sentient computing

In a bid to improve the interaction between computers and humans, it is becoming necessary to make increasingly larger deployments of sensor networks. These clusters of small electronic devices can be embedded in our surroundings and can detect and react to physical changes. They will make computers more proactive in general by gathering and interpreting useful information about the physical en...

Toward Energy-Efficient 5G Wireless Communications Technologies

The densification and expansion of wireless networks pose new challenges on energy efficiency. With a drastic increase of infrastructure nodes (e.g. ultra-dense deployment of small cells), the total energy consumption may easily exceed an acceptable level. While most studies focus on the energy radiated by the antennas, the bigger part of the total energy budget is actually consumed by the hard...
