A Simulation Tool for Real-time Systems using Environmental Energy Harvesting
نویسندگان
چکیده
Energy constrained systems such as sensor networks can increase their usable lifetimes by extracting energy from their environment. This is known as energy harvesting. Task scheduling at the single nodes should account for the properties of the regenerative energy source which fluctuates, capacity of the energy storage as well as deadlines of the time critical tasks. Designing efficient scheduling strategies is significantly more complex compared to conventional realtime scheduling. In this paper, we present a simulator that enables to construct an optimal schedule using the so-called LSA algorithm, for any task set, battery capacity and energy

متن کاملMarkovian Delay Prediction-Based Control of Networked Systems
A new Markov-based method for real time prediction of network transmission time delays is introduced. The method considers a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural model for the transmission network, where the number of neurons in the input layer is minimized so that the required calculations are reduced and the method can be implemented in the real-time. For this purpose, the Markov process order...
