Understanding Power Gating Mechanism Based on Workload Classification of Modern Heterogeneous Many-Core Mobile Platform in the Dark Silicon Era

Haider Alrudainy, Ali K. Marzook, Muaad Hussein, Rishad Shafik

Pages: 275-283

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The rapid progress in mobile computing necessitates energy efficient solutions to support substantially diverse and complex workloads. Heterogeneous many core platforms are progressively being adopted in contemporary embedded implementations for high performance at low power cost estimations. These implementations experience diverse workloads that offer drastic opportunities to improve energy efficiency. In this paper, we propose a novel per core power gating (PCPG) approach based on workload classifications (WLC) for drastic energy cost minimization in the dark silicon era. Core of our paradigm is to use an integrated sleep mode management based on workloads classification indicated by the performance counters. A number of real applications benchmark (PARSEC) are adopted as a practical example of diverse workloads, including memory- and CPU-intensive ones. In this paper, these applications are exercised on Samsung Exynos 5422 heterogeneous many core system showing up to 37% to 110% energy efficient when compared with our most recent published work, and ondemand governor, respectively. Furthermore, we illustrate low-complexity and low-cost runtime per core power gating algorithm that consistently maximize IPS/Watt at all state space.

Increasing WSN Lifetime using Clustering and Fault Tolerance Methods

Sama Hussam Sabah, Muayad Sadik Croock

Pages: 94-99

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Energy consumption problems in wireless sensor networks are an essential aspect of our days where advances have been made in the sizes of sensors and batteries, which are almost very small to be placed in the patient's body for remote monitoring. These sensors have inadequate resources, such as battery power that is difficult to replace or recharge. Therefore, researchers should be concerned with the area of saving and controlling the quantities of energy consumption by these sensors efficiently to keep it as long as possible and increase its lifetime. In this paper energy-efficient and fault-tolerance strategy is proposed by adopting the fault tolerance technique by using the self-checking process and sleep scheduling mechanism for avoiding the faults that may cause an increase in power consumption as well as energy-efficient at the whole network. this is done by improving the LEACH protocol by adding these proposed strategies to it. Simulation results show that the recommended method has higher efficiency than the LEACH protocol in power consumption also can prolong the network lifetime. In addition, it can detect and recover potential errors that consume high energy.

Energy Demand Prediction Based on Deep Learning Techniques

Sarab Shanan Swide, Ali F. Marhoon

Pages: 83-89

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The development of renewable resources and the deregulation of the market have made forecasting energy demand more critical in recent years. Advanced intelligent models are created to ensure accurate power projections for several time horizons to address new difficulties. Intelligent forecasting algorithms are a fundamental component of smart grids and a powerful tool for reducing uncertainty in order to make more cost- and energy-efficient decisions about generation scheduling, system reliability and power optimization, and profitable smart grid operations. However, since many crucial tasks of power operators, such as load dispatch, rely on short-term forecasts, prediction accuracy in forecasting algorithms is highly desired. This essay suggests a model for estimating Denmark’s power use that can precisely forecast the month’s demand. In order to identify factors that may have an impact on the pattern of a number of unique qualities in the city direct consumption of electricity. The current paper also demonstrates how to use an ensemble deep learning technique and Random forest to dramatically increase prediction accuracy. In addition to their ensemble, we showed how well the individual Random forest performed.

New Energy Efficient Routing Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Firefly Algorithm

Safaa Khudair Leabi

Pages: 1-7

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Energy constraint has become the major challenge for designing wireless sensor networks. Network lifetime is considered as the most substantial metric in these networks. Routing technique is one of the best choices for maintaining network lifetime. This paper demonstrates implementation of new methodology of routing in WSN using firefly swarm intelligence. Energy consumption is the dominant issue in wireless sensor networks routing. For network cutoff avoidance while maximize net lifetime energy exhaustion must be balanced. Balancing energy consumption is the key feature for rising nets lifetime of WSNs. This routing technique involves determination of optimal route from node toward sink to make energy exhaustion balance in network and in the same time maximize network throughput and lifetime. The proposed technique show that it is better than other some routing techniques like Dijkstra routing, Fuzzy routing, and ant colony (ACO) routing technique. Results demonstrate that the proposed routing technique has beat the three routing techniques in throughput and extend net lifetime.

E-FLEACH: An Improved Fuzzy Based Clustering Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network

Enaam A. Al-Husain, Ghaida A. Al-Suhail

Pages: 190-197

PDF Full Text
Abstract

Clustering is one of the most energy-efficient techniques for extending the lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In a clustered WSN, each sensor node transmits the data acquired from the sensing field to the leader node (cluster head). The cluster head (CH) is in charge of aggregating and routing the collected data to the Base station (BS) of the deployed network. Thereby, the selection of the optimum CH is still a crucial issue to reduce the consumed energy in each node and extend the network lifetime. To determine the optimal number of CHs, this paper proposes an Enhanced Fuzzy-based LEACH (E-FLEACH) protocol based on the Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC). The FLC system relies on three inputs: the residual energy of each node, the distance of each node from the base station (sink node), as well as the node's centrality. The proposed protocol is implemented using the Castalia simulator in conjunction with OMNET++, and simulation results indicate that the proposed protocol outperforms the traditional LEACH protocol in terms of network lifetime, energy consumption, and stability.

Building an HMI and Demo Application of WSN-based Industrial Control Systems

Ali A. Abed, AbdulAdhem A. Ali, Nauman Aslam

Pages: 107-111

PDF Full Text
Abstract

In this paper we present the details of methodology pursued in implementation of an HMI and Demo Temperature Monitoring application for wireless sensor-based distributed control systems. The application of WSN for a temperature monitoring and control is composed of a number of sensor nodes (motes) with a networking capability that can be deployed for monitoring and control purposes. The temperature is measured in the real time by the sensor boards that sample and send the data to the monitoring computer through a base station or gateway. This paper proposes how such monitoring system can be setup emphasizing on the aspects of low cost, energy-efficient, easy ad-hoc installation and easy handling and maintenance. This paper focuses on the overall potential of wireless sensor nodes and networking in industrial applications. A specific case study is given for the measurement of temperature (with thermistor or thermocouple), humidity, light and the health of the WSN. The focus was not on these four types of measurements and analysis but rather on the design of a communication protocol and building of an HMI software for monitoring. So, a set of system design requirements are developed that covered the use of the wireless platforms, the design of sensor network, the capabilities for remote data access and management, the connection between the WSN and an HMI software designed with MATLAB.
