This paper presents a holistic view of energy management in sensor networks. We first discuss hardware designs that support the life cycle of energy, namely: (i) energy harvesting, (ii) energy storage and (iii) energy consumption and control. Then, we discuss individual software designs that manage energy consumption in sensor networks. These energy-aware designs include media access control, r...

Energy consumption has been a key concern of data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Previous research works show that modulation scaling is an efficient technique to reduce energy consumption. However, such technique will also impact on both packet delivery latency and packet loss, therefore, may result in adverse effects on the qualities of applications. In this study, the problem of modu...

abstract— data grids are an important branch of gird computing which provide mechanisms for the management of large volumes of distributed data. energy efficiency has recently emerged as a hot topic in large distributed systems. the development of computing systems is traditionally focused on performance improvements driven by the demand of client's applications in scientific and business ...

The global system nature of energy creates challenges in developing operating system policies to effectively manage energy consumption. Our proposed currentcy model creates the framework for the operating system to manage energy as a first-class resource. Furthermore, currentcy provides a powerful mechanism to formulate unified energy management policies across diverse competing applications an...

Microsoft sought to reduce energy use on its Puget Sound campus by enhancing analysis of energy consumption and building system optimization. The pilot project focused on 13 diverse buildings, representing 2.6 million square feet and equipped with various building management systems. An analytical layer above the existing building management systems was deployed to provide a consolidated view o...

On typical medium voltage feeder, Load side management means power energy consumption controlling at connected loads. Each load has various amount of reaction to essential parameters variation that collection of these reactions is mentioned feeder behavior to each parameter variation. Temperature, humidity, and energy pricing variation or major event happening and power utility announcing to th...
