Characterizing 10 Gbps Network Interface Energy Consumption

by Ripduman Sohan, Andrew Rice, Andrew W. Moore, Kieran Mansley
"... Abstract—This paper quantifies the energy consumption in six 10 Gbps and four 1 Gbps interconnects at a fine-grained level, introducing two metrics for calculating the energy efficiency of a network interface from the perspective of network throughput and host CPU usage.

Wireless network interface energy consumption: implications for popular streaming formats

by Surendar Chandra - Multimedia Syst
"... Placeshifting systems stream videos from the home to a single remote user using the limited upstream capacity of the home broadband link. We analyze the behavior of two placeshifting systems each using two types of broadband networks. We show that the duration between packets did not depend on the w ..."

network leads to predictable packet delivery at the remote client. Paradoxically, it also leads to shorter periods and a single packet within each data burst. We discuss the limitations imposed by this behavior on a client side energy saving mechanism. We also describe techniques that allow

Multimedia Systems Journal manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Wireless Network Interface Energy Consumption Implications for Popular Streaming Formats

by Surendar Chandra
"... Abstract With the proliferation of mobile streaming multimedia, available bat-tery capacity constrains the end-user experience. Since streaming applications tend to be long running, wireless network interface card’s (WNIC) energy consumption is particularly an acute problem. In this work, we explore ..."

Measuring and Reducing Energy Consumption of Network Interfaces in Hand-Held Devices

by Mark Stemm, Randy H. Katz , 1997
"... Next generation hand-held devices must provide seamless connectivity while obeying stringent power and size constrains. In this paper we examine this issue from the point of view of the Network Interface (NI). We measure the power usage of two PDAs, the Apple Newton Messagepad and Sony Magic Link, a ..."

then examine two classes of optimizations that can be used to reduce network interface energy consumption on these devices: transport-level strategies and application-level strategies. Simulation experiments of transportlevel strategies show that the dominant cost comes not from the number of packets sent

Investigating the Energy Consumption of a Wireless Network Interface in an Ad Hoc Networking Environment

by Laura Marie Feeney, Martin Nilsson - In IEEE Infocom , 2001
"... Energy-aware design and evaluation of network protocols requires knowledge of the energy consumption behavior of actual wireless interfaces. But little practical information is available about the energy consumption behavior of well-known wireless network interfaces and device specifications do not ..."

Minimum energy mobile wireless networks

by Volkan Rodoplu, Teresa H. Meng - IEEE JOURNAL ON SELECTED AREAS IN COMMUNICATIONS , 1999
"... We describe a distributed position-based network protocol optimized for minimum energy consumption in mobile wireless networks that support peer-to-peer communications. Given any number of randomly deployed nodes over an area, we illustrate that a simple local optimization scheme executed at each n ..."

An Energy-Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Wei Ye, John Heidemann, Deborah Estrin , 2002
"... This paper proposes S-MAC, a medium-access control (MAC) protocol designed for wireless sensor networks. Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. We expect senso ..."

wireless MACs such as IEEE 802.11 in almost every way: energy conservation and self-configuration are primary goals, while per-node fairness and latency are less important. S-MAC uses three novel techniques to reduce energy consumption and support self-configuration. To reduce energy consumption

Energy Conserving Routing in Wireless Ad-hoc Networks

by Jae-hwan Chang, Leandros Tassiulas , 2000
"... An ad-hoc network of wireless static nodes is considered as it arises in a rapidly deployed, sensor based, monitoring system. Information is generated in certain nodes and needs to reach a set of designated gateway nodes. Each node may adjust its power within a certain range that determines the set ..."

An Adaptive Energy-Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Tijs van Dam, Koen Langendoen - SENSYS'03 , 2003
"... In this paper we describe T-MAC, a contention-based Medium Access Control protocol for wireless sensor networks. Applications for these networks have some characteristics (low message rate, insensitivity to latency) that can be exploited to reduce energy consumption by introducing an active/sleep du ..."

Versatile Low Power Media Access for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Joseph Polastre, Jason Hill, David Culler , 2004
"... We propose B-MAC, a carrier sense media access protocol for wireless sensor networks that provides a flexible interface to obtain ultra low power operation, effective collision avoidance, and high channel utilization. To achieve low power operation, B-MAC employs an adaptive preamble sampling scheme ..."
