An Optimal Energy Allocation Algorithm for Energy Harvesting Wireless Sensor Networks

by Shaobo Mao, Man Hon Cheung, Vincent W. S. Wong - In Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Communications, Otawa , 2012
"... Abstract—With the use of energy harvesting technologies, the lifetime of a wireless sensor network (WSN) can be prolonged significantly. Unlike a traditional WSN powered by nonrechargeable batteries, the energy management policy of an energy harvesting WSN needs to take into account the energy reple ..."

, energy availability in the battery, and channel fading. We formulate the energy allocation problem as a sequential decision problem and propose an optimal energy allocation (OEA) algorithm using dynamic programming. We conduct simulations to compare the performance between our proposed OEA algorithm

Latent dirichlet allocation

by David M. Blei, Andrew Y. Ng, Michael I. Jordan, John Lafferty - Journal of Machine Learning Research , 2003
"... We describe latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), a generative probabilistic model for collections of discrete data such as text corpora. LDA is a three-level hierarchical Bayesian model, in which each item of a collection is modeled as a finite mixture over an underlying set of topics. Each topic is, ..."

Managing Energy and Server Resources in Hosting Centers

by Jeffrey S. Chase, Darrell C. Anderson, Prachi N. Thakar, Amin M. Vahdat - In Proceedings of the 18th ACM Symposium on Operating System Principles (SOSP , 2001
"... Interact hosting centers serve multiple service sites from a common hardware base. This paper presents the design and implementation of an architecture for resource management in a hosting center op-erating system, with an emphasis on energy as a driving resource management issue for large server cl ..."

by estimating the value of their effects on service performance. A greedy resource allocation algorithm adjusts resource prices to balance supply and demand, allocating resources to their most efficient use. A reconfigurable server switching infrastructure directs request traffic to the servers assigned to each

An Experimental Comparison of Min-Cut/Max-Flow Algorithms for Energy Minimization in Vision

by Yuri Boykov, Vladimir Kolmogorov - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2001
"... After [10, 15, 12, 2, 4] minimum cut/maximum flow algorithms on graphs emerged as an increasingly useful tool for exact or approximate energy minimization in low-level vision. The combinatorial optimization literature provides many min-cut/max-flow algorithms with different polynomial time compl ..."

Constructing Free Energy Approximations and Generalized Belief Propagation Algorithms

by Jonathan S. Yedidia, William T. Freeman, Yair Weiss - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory , 2005
"... Important inference problems in statistical physics, computer vision, error-correcting coding theory, and artificial intelligence can all be reformulated as the computation of marginal probabilities on factor graphs. The belief propagation (BP) algorithm is an efficient way to solve these problems t ..."

the Bethe approximation, and corresponding generalized belief propagation (GBP) algorithms. We emphasize the conditions a free energy approximation must satisfy in order to be a “valid ” or “maxent-normal ” approximation. We describe the relationship between four different methods that can be used

Randomized Gossip Algorithms

by Stephen Boyd, Arpita Ghosh, Balaji Prabhakar, Devavrat Shah - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY , 2006
"... Motivated by applications to sensor, peer-to-peer, and ad hoc networks, we study distributed algorithms, also known as gossip algorithms, for exchanging information and for computing in an arbitrarily connected network of nodes. The topology of such networks changes continuously as new nodes join a ..."

and old nodes leave the network. Algorithms for such networks need to be robust against changes in topology. Additionally, nodes in sensor networks operate under limited computational, communication, and energy resources. These constraints have motivated the design of “gossip ” algorithms: schemes which

Scheduling for reduced CPU energy

by Mark Weiser, Brent Welch, Alan Demers, Scott Shenker - USENIX SYMP. OPERATING , 1994
"... The energy usage of computer systems is becoming more important, especially for battery operated systems. Displays, disks, and cpus, in that order, use the most energy. Reducing the energy used by displays and disks has been studied elsewhere; this paper considers a new method for reducing the energ ..."

Analysis and Simulation of a Fair Queueing Algorithm

by Alan Demers , Srinivasan Keshav , Scott Shenker , 1989
"... We discuss gateway queueing algorithms and their role in controlling congestion in datagram networks. A fair queueing algorithm, based on an earlier suggestion by Nagle, is proposed. Analysis and simulations are used to compare this algorithm to other congestion control schemes. We find. that fair q ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1269 (39 self) - Add to MetaCart
queueing provides several important advantages over the usual first-come-first-serve queueing algorithm: fair allocation of bandwidth, lower delay for sources using less than their full share of bandwidth, and protection from ill-behaved sources.

Entropy-Based Algorithms For Best Basis Selection
