These days, limited energy resources, and also the cost of investment in new and renewable energy is very costly and uneconomical. In the industrial sector, especially energy-intensive industries such as steel, finding appropriate solutions to update the technology, production and reduce energy consumption in this sector is very important. The main aim of this study is the identification an...

An inefficient energy consumption of computing resources in a large cloud datacenter is a very important issue since the energy cost is now a major part of the operating expense. In this paper, the challenge of scheduling a parallel application on a cloud platform to achieve both time and energy efficiency is addressed by two new proposed algorithms Enhancing Heterogonous Earliest Finish Time (...

Dynamic power management has been adopted in many systems to reduce the power consumption by changing the system state dynamically. This paper explores energy efficiency for systems equipped with PCI Express devices, which are designed for low power consumption and high performance, compared to corresponding PCI devices. We propose dynamic power management mechanism and a management policy for ...

The first level data cache in modern processors has become a major consumer of energy due to its increasing size and high frequency access rate. In order to reduce this high energy consumption , we propose in this paper a straightforward filtering technique based on a highly accurate forwarding predictor. Specifically, a simple structure predicts whether a load instruction will obtain its corre...

Further research has been done in order to reduce the energy consumption of the mine roadway wireless sensor nodes and prolong the lifetime of the network. On the basis of analysis and study on the existing linear wireless sensor network nodes deployment, the node distance optimization deployment scheme with sinks in the center is proposed. The calculation method for optimized distance between ...

OBJECTIVE To examine whether home availability of energy-dense snack foods mediates the association between television (TV) viewing and energy-dense snack consumption among adolescents. DESIGN Cross-sectional. SETTING Secondary schools in Victoria, Australia. SUBJECTS Adolescents (n 2984) from Years 7 and 9 of secondary school completed a web-based survey, between September 2004 and July ...

Power consumption in IP-over-WDM networks has become a major concern, more so due to rapidly evolving data intensive applications. Increasing power consumption also increases the environmental cost (carbon emission). Carbon emissions are the result of power generation using non-renewable (traditional hydrocarbons) energy resources. Usage of non-renewable energy resources (such as hydrocarbons, ...

Energy efficiency is the most important issue in all facets of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) operations because of the limited and non-replenish able energy supply. Data aggregation mechanism is one of the possible solutions to prolong the life time of sensor nodes and on the other hand it also helps in eliminating the data redundancy and improving the accuracy of information gathering, is es...
