Energy is the most critical resource in the life of a wireless sensor node. Therefore, its usage must be optimized to maximize the network life. It is known that for higher path l...
Virtual infrastructures or backbones in wireless sensor networks reduce the communication overhead and energy consumption. In this paper, we present BackBone Routing (BBR), a nove...
Combining high performance with low power consumption is becoming one of the primary objectives of processor designs. Instead of relying just on sleep mode for conserving power, a...
We describe a threshold-based local algorithm for image binarization. The main idea is to compute a transition energy using pixel value differences taken from a neighborhood aroun...
We present a dynamic programming technique for solving the multiple supply voltage scheduling problem in both nonpipelined and functionally pipelined data-paths. The scheduling pro...
