Energy Efficient Network Generation for Application Specific NoC

Networks-on-Chip is emerging as a communication platform for future complex SoC designs, composed of a large number of homogenous or heterogeneous processing resources. Most SoC platforms are customized to the domainspecific requirements of their applications, which communicate in a specific, mostly irregular way. The specific but often diverse communication requirements among cores of the SoC call for the design of application-specific network of SoC for improved performance in terms of communication energy, latency, and throughput. In this work, we propose a methodology for the design of customized irregular network architecture of SoC. The proposed method exploits priori knowledge of the application2019;s communication characteristic to generate an energy optimized network and corresponding routing tables

Longer Distance Hop Count BasedPriority Congestion Control Technique for Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Network consists of large number of tiny sensor nodes (Tsodes) distributed in an area, having insufficient processing power, communicating over a network. These Tsodes are circulated in given network environment so that they gather data, process that data and send it to the destination. Rising large applications need to transport massive data packets to the sink node from different sensor nodes without having much loss of data packets in the network. Network must be escaped from the congestion, occurs usually at the Tsodes nearer to base station / sink node. Congestion not only causes packet loss, but also leads to unnecessary energy consumption as well as delay. Therefore, in order to extend network lifetime and improve fairness and provide better quality of service, developing a novel solution for congestion estimation and control is important to be considered. This paper proposes a approach of packet level priority for controlling the congestion in WSN. It uses the hop count value and the distance vector among sink and Tsodes. The technique avoids the congestion faster and improves the overall network throughput and delay too for WSN

This creates a big challenge for the upcoming generation. If improvement is not successful, there exists the unfortunate consequence that global food production may soon become insufficient to feed all of the world’s people. It is therefore essential that agricultural productivity be significantly increased in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach. Plant-beneficiary rhizo-bacteria (PBR) naturally activate microorganisms found in the soil. Because they are inexpensive, effective, and environmentally friendly, PBR are gaining impor-tance for use in crop production by restoring the soil’s natural fertility and protect-ing it against drought and soil diseases, thereby stimulating plant growth. PBR decrease the use of chemical fertilisers, pesticides, and artificial growth regulators; the intensive use of these inputs has led to severe health and environmental hazards, such as soil erosion, water contamination, pesticide poisoning, decreased ground-water table, water logging, surface crusting and depletion of biodiversity. The use of PBR has been proven to be an environmentally sound way of increasing crop yields by facilitating plant growth through either a direct or indirect mechanism with the aim of sustaining soil health over the long term.
