Energy efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is very appealing research area due to serious constrains on resources like storage, processing, and communication power of the sensor nodes. Due to limited capabilities of sensing nodes, such networks are composed of a large number of nodes. The higher number of nodes increases the overall performance in data collection from environment and transmission of packets among nodes. In such networks the nodes sense data and ultimately forward the information to a Base Station (BS). The main issues in WSNs revolve around energy consumption and delay in relaying of data. A lot of research work has been published in this area of achieving energy efficiency in the network. Various techniques have been proposed to divide such networks; like grid division of network, group based division, clustering, making logical layers of network, variable size clusters or groups and so on. In this paper a new technique of group based WSNs is proposed by using some features from recent published protocols i.e. "Energy-Efficient Multi-level and Distance Aware Clustering (EEMDC)" and "Energy-Efficient Multi-level and Distance Aware Clustering (EEUC)". The proposed work is not only energy-efficient but also minimizes the delay in relaying of data from the sensor nodes to BS. Simulation results show, that it outperforms LEACH protocol by 38%, EEMDC by 10% and EEUC by 13%.

A cloud computing system can be characterized by the provision of resources in the form of services to third parties on a leased, usage-based basis, as well as the private infrastructures maintained and utilized by individual organizations. To attain the desired reliability and energy efficiency in a cloud data center, trade-offs need to be carried out between system performance and power consumption. Resolving these conflicting goals is often the major challenge encountered in the design of optimization strategies for cloud data centers. The work presented in this paper is directed towards the development of an Energy-efficient and Performance-aware Cloud System equipped with strategies for dynamic switching of optimization approach. Moreover, a platform is also provided for the deployment of a Wind Farm CMS (Condition Monitoring System) which allows ubiquitous access. Due to the geographically-dispersed nature of wind farms, the CMS can take advantage of the cloud's highly scalable architecture in order to keep a reliable and efficient operation capable of handling multiple simultaneous users and huge amount of monitoring data. Using the proposed cloud architecture, a Wind Farm CMS is deployed in a virtual platform to monitor and evaluate the aging conditions of the turbine's major components in concurrent, yet isolated working environments.

무선 센서 네트워크에서는 효율적으로 에너지를 사용해서 전체 네트워크의 수명을 연장하는 것이 중요한 이슈이다. 기존의 라우팅 프로토콜에서는 클러스터 헤드를 단순히 센서노드들과 가까운 노드로 선택했기 때문에, 경우에 따라서는 클러스터 헤드와 Base Station(BS) 위치가 센서노드와 BS사이의 위치보다 멀어서 거리에 따른 불필요한 에너지 소모가 생긴다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 클러스터의 구성과 클러스터 헤드를 노드들의 위치 정보에 따라서 선정하는 위치기반 클러스터링 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 기존의 알고리즘보다 네트워크 시간이 연장되어 에너지를 효율적으로 사용함을 알 수 있다.

E-Health allows you to supersede the central patient wireless healthcare system. Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN) is the first phase of the e-Health system. In this paper, we aim to understand e-Health architecture and configuration, and attempt to minimize energy consumption and latency in transmission routing protocols during restrictive latency in data delivery of WBSN phase. The goal is to concentrate on polling protocol to improve and optimize the routing time interval and schedule communication to reduce energy utilization. In this research, two types of network models routing protocols are proposed - elemental and clustering. The elemental model improves efficiency by using a polling protocol, and the clustering model is the extension of the elemental model that Destruct Supervised Decision Tree (DSDT) algorithm has been proposed to solve the time interval conflict transmission. The simulation study verifies that the proposed models deliver better performance than the existing BSN protocol for WBSN.

여기에 지오캐스팅(geocasting)이란 어떤 특정한 지역(지오캐스트 영역이라 함)에 있는 모든 노드들에게 데이터를 전송하는 통신형태이다. 기존의 에너지 관련 프로토콜은 주로 통신 경로 설정 시 주로 최소 홉 수, 즉 전송 에너지를 최소화하기 위한 최단거리 관점에서 최적의 경로를 구하며, 각 노드의 잔여 에너지와 링크 에러율에 대해 고려하지 않는 것이 대부분이다. 본 논문에서는 ad-hoc 네트워크에서 에너지 효율적이고 신뢰성 있는 전송을 하기 위한 지오캐스팅 방법인 MLRG를 제안한다. MLRG는 위치기반과 라우팅-기반인 지오캐스팅으로 각 노드의 잔여 전력을 파악한 경로 탐색과 새롭게 제안하는 cost 관계식을 통해 네트워크 활동시간을 최대화하고, 링크의 에러율도 고려하여 신뢰성 있는 통신이 가능하다.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 에너지 효율을 높이기 위해 클러스터링 방법이 제안되었다. 클러스터링 방법은 데이터를 수집하고 전달하는 계층 구조를 형성하고 있다. 그러나 대용량 데이터를 전송하는 무선 멀티미디어 센서 네트워크에서 기존의 무선 센서 네트워크의 클러스터링 기법은 과도한 데이터 전송에너지 소모량과 극도로 짧은 수명으로 인하여 적용하는 데에 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 상황에 따른 협력 통신 기법을 적용한 대용량 데이터 전송 방법으로 EEAC를 제안하여 에너지 효율을 높였다. 실험결과 제안방법은 기존의 방법보다 에너지 효율이 약 2.5배 향상되었음을 보였다.

We investigate rate scheduling and power allocation problem for a delay constrained CDMA systems. Specifically, we determine an energy efficient scheduling policy, while each user maintains the short term (n time slots) average throughput. More importantly, it is shown that the optimal transmission strategy for the uplink is same as that of the downlink, called uplink and downlink duality. We then examine the performance of the optimum transmission strategy for the uplink and the downlink for various system environments.

Security is more important in many sensor applications. The node replication attack is a major issue on sensor networks. The replicated node can capture all node details. Node Replication attacks use its secret cryptographic key to successfully produce the networks with clone nodes and also it creates duplicate nodes to build up various attacks. The replication attacks will affect in routing, more energy consumption, packet loss, misbehavior detection, etc. In this paper, a Secure-Efficient Centralized approach is proposed for detecting a Node Replication Attacks in Wireless Sensor Networks for Static Networks. The proposed system easily detects the replication attacks in an effective manner. In this approach Secure Cluster Election is used to prevent from node replication attack and Secure Efficient Centralized Approach is used to detect if any replicated node present in the network. When comparing with the existing approach the detection ratio, energy consumption performs better.

The interconnection of mobile devices in urban environments can open up a lot of vistas for collaboration and content-based services. This will require setting up of a network in an urban environment which not only provides the necessary services to the user but also ensures that the network is secure and energy efficient. In this paper, we propose a secure, energy efficient dynamic routing protocol for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks in urban environments. A decision is made by every node based on various parameters like longevity, distance, battery power which measure the node and link quality to decide the next hop in the route. This ensures that the total load is distributed evenly while conserving the energy of battery-constrained nodes. The protocol also maintains a trusted population for each node through Dynamic Trust Factor (DTF) which ensures secure communication in the environment by gradually isolating the malicious nodes. The results obtained show that the proposed protocol when compared with another energy efficient protocol (MMBCR) and a widely accepted protocol (DSR) gives far better results in terms of energy efficiency. Similarly, it also outdoes a secure protocol (QDV) when it comes to detecting malicious nodes in the network.
