Abstract With the increase of energy consumption worldwide in several domains such as industry, education, and transportation, several technologies played an influential role in energy conservation such as the Internet of Things (IoT). In this article, we describe the design and implementation of an IoT-based energy conservation smart classroom system that contributes to energy conservation in the education domain. The proposed system not only allows the user to access and control IoT devices (e.g., lights, projectors, and air conditions) in real-time, it also has the capability to aggregate the estimated energy consumption of an IoT device, the smart classroom, and the… More >

Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks are composed of autonomous sensing devices which are interconnected to form a closed network. This closed network is intended to share sensitive location-centric information from a source node to the base station through efficient routing mechanisms. The efficiency of the sensor node is energy bounded, acts as a concentrated area for most researchers to offer a solution for the early draining power of sensors. Network management plays a significant role in wireless sensor networks, which was obsessed with the factors like the reliability of the network, resource management, energy-efficient routing, and scalability of services.

Abstract The purpose of sensing the environment and geographical positions, device monitoring, and information gathering are accomplished using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), which is a non-dependent device consisting of a distinct collection of Sensor Node (SN). Thus, a clustering based on Energy Efficient (EE), one of the most crucial processes performed in WSN with distinct environments, is utilized. In order to efficiently manage energy allocation during sensing and communication, the present research on managing energy efficiency is performed on the basis of distributed algorithm. Multiples of EE methods were incapable of supporting EE routing with MIN-EC in WSN in spite of… More >

Abstract Underwater sensor networks have important application value in the fields of water environment data collection, marine environment monitoring and so on. It has some characteristics such as low available bandwidth, large propagation delays and limited energy, which bring new challenges to the current researches. The research on coverage control of underwater sensor networks is the basis of other related researches. A good sensor node coverage control method can effectively improve the quality of water environment monitoring. Aiming at the problem of high dynamics and uncertainty of monitoring targets, the random events level are divided into serious events and general events.… More >

Abstract A wireless sensor network (WSN) is made up of sensor nodes that communicate via radio waves in order to conduct sensing functions. In WSN, the location of the base station is critical. Although base stations are fixed, they may move in response to data received from sensor nodes under specific conditions. Clustering is a highly efficient approach of minimising energy use. The issues of extending the life of WSNs and optimising their energy consumption have been addressed in this paper. It has been established that integrating mobile sinks into wireless sensor networks extends their longevity. Thus, this research proposes an… More >

Abstract The Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are characterized by their widespread deployment due to low cost, but the WSNs are vulnerable to various types of attacks. To defend against the attacks, an effective security solution is required. However, the limits of these networks’ battery-based energy to the sensor are the most critical impediments to selecting cryptographic techniques. Consequently, finding a suitable algorithm that achieves the least energy consumption in data encryption and decryption and providing a highly protected system for data remains the fundamental problem. In this research, the main objective is to obtain data security during transmission by proposing a… More >

Abstract In cloud data centers, the consolidation of workload is one of the phases during which the available hosts are allocated tasks. This phenomenon ensures that the least possible number of hosts is used without compromise in meeting the Service Level Agreement (SLA). To consolidate the workloads, the hosts are segregated into three categories: normal hosts, under-loaded hosts, and overloaded hosts based on their utilization. It is to be noted that the identification of an extensively used host or underloaded host is challenging to accomplish. Threshold values were proposed in the literature to detect this scenario. The current study aims to… More >

Abstract Sensors are considered as important elements of electronic devices. In many applications and service, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are involved in significant data sharing that are delivered to the sink node in energy efficient manner using multi-hop communications. But, the major challenge in WSN is the nodes are having limited battery resources, it is important to monitor the consumption rate of energy is very much needed. However, reducing energy consumption can increase the network lifetime in effective manner. For that, clustering methods are widely used for optimizing the rate of energy consumption among the sensor nodes. In that concern, this… More >

Abstract The reduction of the hygroscopicity of wood fibers was investigated through a Thermal Treatment (TT) on wood chips performed before the defibering process. The TT and defibering tests were both carried out on a continuous pilot at semi-industrial scale. The thermal treatment study of wood chips, equivalent to a low temperature pyrolysis, was achieved for four conditions (280°C–320°C) for a duration of 10 min. Mass quantification of solids, condensables and gases (FTIR) at the outcome of the thermal treatment allowed to achieve the mass balances for each condition. The increase of the reactor temperature from 280°C to 320°C leads to… More >
