Due to the varied utilization of servers in a data center at any given moment, energy consumption typically runs higher that strictly necessary to keep the servers at their most useful. To try improving energy efficie...
The wireless sensors used in hard-to-reach places are often deployed in somewhat haphazard networks that can hurt their usefulness. In a paper from the International Journal of Computer Applications, three individuals...
As phones become able to do more and are used for more intense operations, their batteries suffer and processor limitations get tight, so operations take longer while the charge lasts for a shorter time. To combat the...
Scientists often use math and computing to better understand nature and biology, but Yehuda Afek, Noga Alon, Omer Barad, Eran Hornstein, Naama Barkai, and Ziv Bar-Joseph believe that norm is worth turning around. They...
Using maximal information coefficient and maximal information-based nonparametric exploration statistics, nine researchers discuss how to discover previously unrecognized relationships in any variety of big sets of da...
To reduce the energy used by sorting algorithms, Cheng-Jen Tang, Hui-Chin He, Miau-Ru Dai, and Chi-Cheng Chuang have experimented with evaluating the memory required for using different sorting algorithms on different...
To better deal with and reduce the energy consumed for real-time and sporadic tasks in multi-core systems, researchers in China and Austrialia developed an algorithm that focuses on Time Local - Dynamic Voltage Freque...
A collection of scientists and researchers from the University of California's Departments of Physics and of Electrical Engineering, the California NanoSystems Institute, and NEC Corporation's Green Innovation Researc...
To improve the energy effiency of clustered wireless sensor networks, Jayanthi K. Murthy, Suthikshn Kumar, and A. Srinivas present a scheduling algorithm focused on optimizing "Time Division Multiple Access." Using it...
Modular functions can be calculated by threshold circuits that save energy by mimicking the brain's nuerons, according to Akira Suzuki, Kei Uchizawa, and, Xiao Zhou. Read their proof in The Australian Computer...
Even as systems are being refined and simplified to improve efficiency, others are looking deeper into more distributed systems that use multiple platforms at once. Current issues and desires with scalability, data di...
Researchers already have uses for supercomputers capable of exaflops (1018 floating point operations per second) - such as accurate global climate simulation - but existing technology cannot yet support it and the cur...
Researchers from IBM*, the Max Planck Research Group, and the University of Basel in Switzerland explore the magnetic control of antiferromagnetic nanostructures to make data storage devices even smaller. Paper by Seb...
