다리를 가진 로봇은 지형에 대한 높은 적응능력을 가졌다할지라도 바퀴로 구동되는 로봇과 비교했을 때 일반적으로 그 속도가 상당히 느리다. 다리를 가진 로봇으로 빨리 움직이는 속도를 얻기 위해서는 두발로봇의 달리는 것과 4족 로봇의 속보나 뛰는 것과 같이 동적으로 안정한 걸음걸이가 좋은 해결법이다. 그러나 동적으로 안정한 걸음걸이의 에너지 효율은 일반적으로 느린 걸음걸이와 같은 안정한 걸음걸이보다 낮다. 본 논문에서는 4족으로 걷는 로봇의 에너지 효율에 관한 실험적 연구를 보여주고 있다. 걷는 보행 방법에 따른 2가지 패턴에 따른 에너지 효율관계를 TITAN-VIII이라 명명된 4발로 걷는 로봇을 기준으로 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비교분석 하였다.

USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network)은 감지기능을 수행하기 위해서는 센서노드에서 싱크로의 라우팅 기법이 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 데이터의 전달을 위한 경로설정시 에너지의 효율성 및 균일성을 제공하는 제어메시지의 확률적 플러딩을 제안하며 에너지의 소모를 되도록이면 균일하도록 유도하는 에너지확률을 이용하고 경로를 은닉할 수 있는 분산 라우팅기법을 제안하였다. 에너지효율성을 측정하기 위하여 수학적 모델링과 NS-2 시뮬레이터를 이용하였다. 각 기법은 기존의 관련연구와 비교분석하여 본 논문에서 제안한 기법이 우수함을 증명하였다.

본 논문에서 비대칭 멀티 코어 구조의 스마트 모바일 단말에서 실시간성 보장과 에너지 소비량 절감을 고려한 작업 스케쥴링 기법을 제안한다. 최근 VR, AR, 3D 등 고성능 응용프로그램은 실시간과 고수준 작업이 요구된다. 스마트 단말은 배터리에 의존적이므로 높은 에너지 효율을 위해서 big.LITTLE 구조가 적용되었지만, 이를 제대로 활용하지 못함으로써 에너지 절감효과가 반감되는 문제점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 big.LITTLE 구조의 단말에서 실시간성과 높은 에너지 효율을 높일 수 있는 비대칭 멀티코어 할당 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 SVM 모델을 활용해서 실제 작업의 실행시간을 예측하고 이를 통해서 에너지 소모와 실행시간을 최적화한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 상용 스마트폰에서의 비교실험을 통하여 제안기법이 기존 기법과 유사한 실행시간을 보장하면서 에너지 소비량의 절감을 보였다.

Mobile computing devices such as smartphones, tablet computers have become the dominant personal computing platforms. Energy efficiency is a prime design requirement for smart devices. In order to reduce the energy consumption of the smart devices, analysis of performance and energy consumption has become important. However, so far, there is no framework for the analysis and systematic approach to improve the power consumption of the heterogeneous multi-core system. In this paper, we describe a new framework for the analysis of heterogeneous multi-core systems. Also, by use of an analysis tool, can be provide reliability and productivity of development results.

The sensor network is a key component of the ubiquitous computing system which is expected to be widely utilized in logistics control, environment/disaster control, medical/health-care services, digital home and other applications. Nodes in the sensor network are small-sized and exposed to adverse environments. They are demanded to perform their missions with very limited power supply only. Also the sensor network is composed of much more nodes than the wireless ad hoc networks are. In case that some nodes consume up their power capacity, the network topology should change, and rerouting/retransmission is necessitated. Communication protocols studied for conventional wireless networks or ad hoc networks are not suited for the sensor network resultantly. Schemes should be devised to control the efficient usage of node power in the sensor network. This paper proposes a medium access protocol to enhance the efficiency of energy consumption in the sensor network node. Its performance is analyzed by simulation.

Most Ice making companies make simple efforts to make products and fail to introduce improvements into the system against huh cost of products. The work presented here is an implementation of ice making method to improve both energy efficiency and productivity. In this present investigation, several ice making cycles are designed and calculated to evaluate COP, ice making time and electric energy consumption. Results obtained shows that COP is improved with more efficient use of time for ice making and electric consumption. Therefore this can offer the opportunity for more efficient energy consumption and productivity in ice making.

Korea government established the energy technology development plan (2011-2020) and declared to be a leader of the green energy technologies. The plan aims for 10% market share in the green energy industry, 12% energy efficiency improvement, and 15% greenhouse gas reduction. In order to achieve these goals, the government has tried to calculate the whole scale of national energy R&D investment, annual budget and specific expenditures for new technologies by computer simulation. The simulation modules include the R&D investment model, GDP model, energy consumption and $CO_2$ emission model by System Dynamics. Based on these simulation modules, I tested various scenarios for effectiveness of energy R&D investments until 2020. The results show that Korea should increase national energy R&D investment to 2.3 billion U.S. dollars, and switch the investment from electricity and nuclear power to the renewable energy.

Energy consumption is an important issue in body area networks (BANs). In this letter, we propose an energy efficient transmission power control scheme for IEEE 802.15.6 BANs, which can improve energy efficiency by adaptively adjusting the transmit power in an on-demand way to adapt to varying channel environments. Simulations are performed to evaluate the performance, and it is shown that the proposed power control scheme outperforms traditional ones in terms of energy efficiency without significant reliability degradation.

A common concern regarding cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) schemes is the occupied bandwidth and the energy consumption during the transmissions of sensing information to the fusion center over the reporting control channels. This concern is intensified if the number of cooperating secondary users in the network is large. This article presents a new fusion strategy for a CSS scheme, aiming at increasing the energy efficiency of a recently proposed bandwidth-efficient fusion scheme. Analytical results and computational simulations unveil a high increase in energy efficiency when compared with the original approach, yet achieving better performances in some situations, and lower implementation complexity.
