Compiler Assisted Energy Management For Sensor Network Nodes

Jindal, Prachee 08 1900 (has links)
Emerging low power, embedded, wireless sensor devices are useful for wide range of applications, yet have very limited processing storage and especially energy resources. Sensor networks have a wide variety of applications in medical monitoring, environmental sensing and military surveillance. Due to the large number of sensor nodes that may be deployed and the required long system lifetimes, replacing the battery is not an option. Sensor systems must utilize the minimal possible energy while operating over a wide range of operating scenarios. The most of the efforts in the energy management in sensor networks have concentrated on minimizing energy consumption in the communication subsystem. Some researchers have also dealt with the issue of minimizing the energy in computing subsystem of a sensor network node. Some proposals using energy aware software have also been made. Relatively little work has been done on compiler controlled energy management in sensor networks. In this thesis, we present our investigations on how compiler techniques can be used to minimize CPU energy consumption in sensor network nodes. One effectively used energy management technique in general purpose processors, is dynamic voltage scaling. In this thesis we implement and evaluate a compiler assisted DVS algorithm and show its usefulness for a small sensor node processor. We were able to achieve an energy saving of 29% with a little performance slowdown. Scratchpad memories have been widely used for improving performance. In this thesis we show that if the scratchpad size for the system is chosen carefully, then large energy savings can be achieved by using a compiler assisted scratchpad allocation policy. With a small size of 512 byte scratchpad memory we were able to achieve 50% of energy savings. We also studied the behavior of dynamic voltage scaling in presence of scratchpad memory. Our results show that in presence of scratchpad memory less opportunities are found for applying dynamic voltage scaling techniques. The sensor network community lacks a comprehensive benchmark suite, for our study we also implemented a set of applications, representative of computational workload on sensor network nodes. The techniques studied in this thesis can easily be integrated with existing energy management techniques in sensor networks, yielding in additional energy savings.

Proposta e avaliação de uma arquitetura ROADM para sistemas de transmissão O-OFDM / Proposal and evaluation of a ROADM architecture for O-OFDM transmission systems

Ferreira, Rafael Jales Lima 26 June 2018 (has links)
Este trabalho tem como cenário as redes ópticas de próxima geração, por onde trafegarão supercanais flexíveis, sincronizados e modulados a taxas variáveis que podem chegar à ordem de Terabit por segundo. Mais especificamente, focaliza o supercanal óptico gerado a partir de um único laser (laser semente) composto por portadoras ortogonais entre si, travadas em frequência e moduladas de maneira síncrona. Tal arranjo constitui um sistema de transmissão conhecido como OFDM óptico (optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, O-OFDM). Este esquema não requer banda de guarda entre canais, o que proporciona uma melhor eficiência espectral, se mantidas as condições de ortogonalidade mútua, quando comparado à técnica Nyquist WDM (Nyquist wavelength division multiplexing, N-WDM), usualmente reconhecida como base para os sistemas de próxima geração. Muitos são os desafios a serem vencidos antes que a técnica O-OFDM possa ser efetivamente implantada comercialmente e esta tese busca, através de um estudo de seus princípios de funcionamento e módulos constituintes, elencar os principais obstáculos e as possíveis maneira de superá-los. Sem pretender ser exaustivo em termos de tecnologias disponíveis para alcançar este fim, o objetivo é propor novas configurações de subsistemas e arquitetura de nó para o transmissor, o nó intermediário e o receptor coerente, capazes de executar, de forma relativamente simples no domínio óptico, as principais funcionalidades de uma transmissão ponto a ponto com nós deriva/insere intermediários. Através de simulações sistêmicas e demonstrações experimentais, como prova de conceito, dois cenários são abordados: análise do desempenho numa transmissão ponto a ponto, e operação em rede, com derivação e inserção de canal em nós intermediários. Ao final, através de uma análise qualitativa, é feita uma estimativa de componentes e subsistemas necessários para tornar a transmissão de sinais O-OFDM implementável por tecnologias de fotônica integrada que atenda, com eficiência espectral e economia de energia, a sempre crescente demanda de capacidade em sistemas de transmissão óptica. / This work focuses on the scenario of next generation optical networking, where flexible optical superchannels will propagate modulated at variable rates that can reach terabits per second. More specifically, it focuses on the optical superchannel generated from a single laser (seed laser) composed of orthogonal carriers, which are frequency-locked and synchronously modulated. Such arrangement constitutes a transmission system known as optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM). This scheme does not require guard band between channels, which provides a better spectral efficiency, if the conditions of mutual orthogonality are maintained, when compared to the Nyquist wavelength dividing multiplexing (N-WDM) technique, usually recognized as the basis for the next generation systems. There are many challenges to overcome before O-OFDM technique can be effectively deployed commercially and this thesis seeks, through a study of its operating principles and constituent modules, to identify the main obstacles and the possible ways of overcoming them. Without intending to be exhaustive in terms of available technologies to achieve this aim, the objective is to propose new configurations of subsystems and node architecture for the transmitter, the intermediate node and the coherent receiver, able to perform in the optical domain, in a relatively simple way, the main features a point-to-point transmission with nodes drifting/inserting intermediates. Through systemic simulations and some experimental demonstrations, as proof of concept, two scenarios are addressed: performance analysis in a point-to-point transmission, and network operation, with channel derivation and insertion at intermediate nodes. At the end, through a qualitative analysis, an estimate of components and subsystems is made to make the transmission of O-OFDM signals implementable by integrated photonics technologies that meet, with spectral efficiency and energy savings, the ever increasing capacity demand in optical transmission systems.
