Sažetak predavanja:
Energy consumption has become one of the most important design parameters in electronic systems. In high end systems the cost of energy powering the electronics equals the cost of cooling it. Mobile systems have to ensure that there is enough power available to complete their tasks. In this talk I give an overview of the strategies we have developed at UCSD to significantly lower the energy consumption in computing systems.
I will also present some of the recent work we had done to address the energy savings in battery powered and energy harvesting systems. We have been developing an adaptive algorithm to tradeoff accuracy of computation versus the available energy. As a result, we show that sophisticated data gathering and analysis previously not possible, can now be done. We give examples in healthcare and structural health monitoring scenarios on how our techniques work.
Lastly, I will give an overview of a new energy-efficient scheduling and routing algorithm that delivers good QoS while maximizing battery lifetime in a large scale heterogeneous wireless sensor network we have deployed in southern California. The network covers area of 100x70 miles, and includes various applications, such as emergency use by California Fire Department, to seismic studies and ecology research.
