There is a growing interest in applications that utilize continuous sensing of individual activity or context, via sensors embedded or associated with personal mobile devices (e.g., smartphones). Reducing the energy overheads of sensor data acquisition and processing is essential to ensure the successful continuous operation of such applications, especially on battery-limited mobile devices. To achieve this goal, this paper presents a framework, called ACQUA, for ‘acquisition-cost’ aware continuous query processing. ACQUA replaces the current paradigm, where the data is typically streamed (pushed) from the sensors to the one or more smartphones, with a pull-based asynchronous model, where a smartphone retrieves …

The key feature of many emerging pervasive computing applications is to proactively provide services to mobile individuals. One major challenge in providing users with proactive services lies in continuously monitoring users’ context based on numerous sensors in their PAN/BAN environments. The context monitoring in such environments imposes heavy workloads on mobile devices and sensor nodes with limited computing and battery power. We present SeeMon, a scalable and energy-efficient context monitoring framework for sensor-rich, resource-limited mobile environments. Running on a personal mobile device, SeeMon effectively performs context monitoring involving numerous sensors and applications. On top of SeeMon, multiple applications on the …

We study the performance metrics associated with TCP-regulated traffic in multi-hop, wireless networks that use a common physical channel (e.g., IEEE 802.11). In contrast to earlier analyses, we focus simultaneously on two key operating metrics—the energy efficiency and the transport-layer (TCP) throughput. Using analysis and simulations, we show how these metrics are strongly influenced by the radio transmission range of individual nodes. Due to tradeoffs between the individual packet transmission energy and the likelihood of retransmissions, the total energy consumption is a convex function of the number of hops (and hence, of the transmission range). On the other hand, the …
Minimum Energy Paths For Reliable Communication In Multi-Hop Wireless Networks, Suman Banerjee, Archan Misra
Minimum Energy Paths For Reliable Communication In Multi-Hop Wireless Networks, Suman Banerjee, Archan Misra
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Current algorithms for minimum-energy routing in wireless networks typically select minimum-cost multi-hop paths. In scenarios where the transmission power is fixed, each link has the same cost and the minimum-hop path is selected. In situations where the transmission power can be varied with the distance of the link, the link cost is higher for longer hops; the energy-aware routing algorithms select a path with a large number of small-distance hops. In this paper, we argue that such a formulation based solely on the energy spent in a single transmission is misleading --- the proper metric should include the total energy …
