IoT (Internet of Things) based Smart Grid (SG) is defined as a power grid integrated with a large network of smart objects portrayed by information and communication technology. The data sources of IoT-based SG, as well as their correlations, are ...

In this paper, we present an informed prefetching technique called IPODS that makes use of application-disclosed access patterns to prefetch hinted blocks in distributed multi-level storage systems. We develop a prefetching pipeline in IPODS, where an ...

Coding-based reprogramming protocols can effectively and remotely disseminate a new code image to all sensor nodes via wireless channels in wireless sensor networks. However, security service is crucial to these protocols when sensor nodes are deployed ...

In air-based information network of the Space-Air-Ground Integrated Network, it is critical to select an efficient communication link for each communication. However, some communication may not have fixed rules. In this article, we build a model of the ...

Keystroke biometrics (KB) authentication systems are a less popular form of access control, although they are gaining popularity. In recent years, keystroke biometric authentication has been an active area of research due to its low cost and ease of ...

I/O intensive application is one of the most popular cloud applications. However, few studies have focused on how to improve the processing efficiency of this specific type of application. Based on the previous studies on this kind of application, a ...

Speaker recognition as one of biometrics techniques is to recognize speaker's identity. A robust method for speaker recognition with high accuracy of recognition rate is the aim for all relevant researchers. With the rapid development of cloud computing,...

In wireless sensor networks, there are many information exchanges between different terminals. In order to guarantee a good level of Quality of Service (QoS), the source node should be smart enough to pick a stable and good quality communication route ...

In Wireless Sensor Networks, the preloaded program code and data on sensor nodes often need to be updated due to changes in user requirements and environmental conditions. Sensor nodes are severely restricted by energy constraints. It is especially ...

Cost minimization and execution-time reduction have become the most important issues in today's real-time embedded system. Meanwhile, for the DSP (Digital Signal Processing) applications running on embedded system, loops inside them are the most ...

A distributed mobile DSP system consists of a group of mobile devices with different computing powers. These devices are connected by a wireless network. Parallel processing in the distributed mobile DSP system can provide high computing performance. ...

In this paper, a technique that combines loop distribution with maximum direct loop fusion (LD_MDF) is proposed. The technique performs maximum loop distribution, followed by maximum direct loop fusion to optimize timing and code size simultaneously. ...

One of the most critical components that determine the success of an MPSoC based architecture is its on-chip memory. Scratch Pad Memory (SPM) is increasingly being applied to substitute cache as the on-chip memory of embedded MPSoCs due to its superior ...

Switching activity and instruction cycles are two of the most important factors in power dissipation when the supply voltage is fixed. This paper studies the scheduling and assignment problems that minimize the total energy caused by both instruction ...
