In this paper, a new perspective of using flexible, brain-inspired, analog and digital wireless transmission in massive future networks, is presented. Inspired by the nervous impulses transmission mechanisms in the human brain which is highly energy efficient, we consider flexible, wireless analog and digital transmission on very short distances approached from the energy efficiency point of view. The energy efficiency metric is compared for the available transmission modes, taking the circuit power consumption model into account. In order to compare the considered systems, we assume that the transmitted data comes from analog sensors. In the case of the digital transmission scheme, the decoded data are converted back to analog form at the receiving side. Moreover, different power consumption models from the literature and the digital transmission schemes with different performance are analyzed in order to examine if, for some applications and for some channel conditions, the analog transmission can be the energy-efficient alternative of digital communication. The simulation results show that there exist some cases when the analog or simplified digital communication is more energy efficient than digital transmission with QAM modulation.

5G Ultra-Dense Networks (UDNs) will involve massive deployment of small cells which in turn form complex backhaul network. This backhaul network must be energy efficient for the 5G UDN network to be green. V-band and E-band mmWave technologies are among the wireless backhaul solutions tipped for 5G UDN. In this paper, we have compared the performance of the two backhaul solutions to determine which is more energy efficient for 5G UDN. We first formulated the problem to minimize power, then proposed an algorithm to solve the problem. This was then simulated using Network simulator 3.The first scenario made use of V-band mmWave while thesecond was E-band mmWave. The performance metricsused were power consumption and energy efficiency againstthe normalized hourly traffic profile. The performances ofthe two solutions were compared. The results revealed thatE-band mmWave outperformed V-band mmWave inbackhauling traffic in 5G UDN. It can be concluded that E-band green backhaul solution is recommended over V-bandmmWave for 5G UDN.

The main goal of the study is to analyse the residential real estate market in Ukraine from the point of view of the need and the possibility of increasing its energy efficiency. Also, it aims to justify effective financial and credit mechanisms for ensuring measures to improve the thermal protection properties of residential and non- residential real estate, in particular by introducing energy efficiency development projects. With this research we investigated Ukraine's housing stock and utility tariffs and concluded that a beneficial strategy to be applied in Ukraine is the energy-efficient retrofit of real estate. This is one of the most effective ways to re-profile unclaimed real estate units in the existing state or to reconstruct inefficiently used buildings. Also, we reviewed selected methods of energy efficient residential real estate development and mechanisms of financing energy- efficient renovation of real estate used in the EU. And, in our view, the next step of the Ukraine in the direction of improving the energy efficiency of housing should be the effective operation of a dedicated/specific energy efficiency fund to ensure stable financing of housing modernization projects, which will allow for a comprehensive renovation of buildings and lead to significant annual energy savings in this end-use sector.

For the problem that the energy efficiency of the cloud computing data center is low, from the point of view of the energy efficiency of the servers, we propose a new energy-efficient multi-job scheduling model based on Google’s massive data processing framework. To solve this model, we design a practical encoding and decoding method for the individuals and construct an overall energy efficiency function of the servers as the fitness value of each individual. Meanwhile, in order to accelerate the convergent speed of our algorithm and enhance its searching ability, a local search operator is introduced. Finally, the experiments show that the proposed algorithm is effective and efficient.

<span>Future would be the world of robotics. Human arm is the best serial manipulator in the world. End part of manipulator is known as End effector or hand. At the end of serial manipulator we always put gripper just like our hand. Today many mechanisms have been proposed for robotic hand. We proposed a novel mechanical design and we used one motor to operate the gripper mechanism and it consumes less electrical power than other gripper. For energy efficient robot we have to reduce the number of motors and have to look in the mechanical design. In this paper we targeted to make gripper more energy efficient. We used only one motor to operate four fingers symmetrically. Our proposed model has four fingers, each are placed orthogonally to each other. In market, other manufactures use single motor for motion of each finger. Each motor has its own power consumption capacity to manipulate the load on finger. We replaced all four motors with single motor by Geneva mechanism. So electrical power consumption reduced by 1/4th. Energy conservation point of view it is energy efficient system. This paper presents a methodology that has been applied for a design mechanism for energy efficient robotic hand with four fingers. Wide applications of gripper are in automobile industries. Automobile companies are used gripers and serial manipulators in plenty</span>

Energy Efficiency is one of the key elements of the Environment-Economic aspect of the three spheres of sustainability. To make any business sustainable in the light bulb industry, it could be applied as a strategy to gain competitive advantage in the functional level. This paper investigates the market awareness of environmentally friendly products such as the energy efficient light bulb (or energy bulb) and its market availability, demand, quality and brightness, low waste (e-waste), sustainable consumption (durability), warranty, commission rate, and profitability. It also finds that energy efficiency and low waste are valuable strategies to create market demand for energy bulbs to make sustainable profit and product stewardship eventually to contribute to the e-waste management. A 500 sample survey is conducted in Bangladesh to analyze the energy bulb buyers’ and sellers’ view about this product locally. After the results and interpretation through descriptive statistics and regression of the variables, this study finally draws a pathway model to show that sustainable energy definitely leads to sustainable business. From the buyers’ point of view, sustainable consumption and low waste as well as from the sellers’ point of view profit and sustainable product both support sustainable business backed by sustainable strategy, energy efficiency being the key. To make the competitive advantage enduring, ensure profitability and profit growth for the shareholders of the corporate world, especially the electrical and electronics industry; with the energy bulb in particular, an energy efficiency strategy could be implemented in businesses worldwide. As the COP26 (The 2021 United Nations Conference on Climate Change) limits the global warming rise by 1.5%, energy bulb has been the pioneer in promoting sustainable products to adopt the sustainable strategy to limit carbon emissions globally.

Over the past decade, energy efficiency has consistently been a critical research topic in the field of wireless sensor networks. In wireless networks, signal interference often leads to power waste in a sensor node. Several SINR-based routing algorithms designed for energy efficiency or interference avoidance had been proposed. However, they are either too complex to be useful in practices or may slow in routing computation speed. In this paper, two energy efficient geographic routing algorithms (EEGRA) for wireless sensor network are proposed to address the power consumption issue while considering the routing computation speed. The first algorithm take the value of interference into the routing cost function, and uses it in the routing decision. The second algorithm transforms the problem into a constrained optimization problem, and solves it by searching the optimal discretized interference level. We adopt four geographic routing algorithms: GOAFR+, Face Routing, GPSR, and RandHT, in EEGRA algorithms and compare them with three other routing methods in terms of power consumption and computation cost for the grid and irregular sensor topologies. The experimental result shows that the EEGRA algorithms reduce energy consumption by 30–50% comparing to geographic routing methods. In addition, the time complexity of EEGRA algorithms is similar to the geographic greedy routing methods, which is much faster than the optimal SINR-based algorithm.

There have been significant advances in sensors and device structures in the medical industry, particularly in implanted medical devices. Increasingly complex electronic circuitry may now be implanted in the human body thanks to compact, high-energy batteries and hermetic packaging. These gadgets must adhere to strict power consumption guidelines due to the battery recharging schedule. Designing energy-efficient circuits and systems becomes increasingly important as a result of this fact. Adiabatic circuits provide a hopeful alternative for traditional circuitry in case of low energy design. Because of power-clock phases synchronization complexity, designing and functionally verifying presenting 4-phase adiabatic circuitry takes longer. Accordingly, multiple clock generators are used typically and can reveal enhanced consumption of energy in the network of clock distribution. Furthermore, they are not suitable for designing in high-speed because of their clock skew management and high complexity issues. In this paper, TMEL (True multi-phase energy recovering logic), the first energyrecovering/adiabatic logic family is presented for biomedical applications, which functions using the scheme multiple-phase sinusoidal clocking. Moreover, a system of SCAL, a source-coupled variation with TMEL having enhanced energy efficiency and supply voltage scalability, is introduced. A novel true multi-phase Approach and Source-coupled adiabatic logic for energy effective communication system is proposed. The adiabatic logic is employed for both write and read side operation. The CMOS inverter is integrated with TMEL cascades, which in turn reduces leakage loss. In SCAL, the optimal performance at any operating circumstance is attained byan adjustable current source in each gate. SCAL, and TMEL, are capable of outperforming existing adiabatic logic families concerning operating speed and energy efficiency. The performance analysis was carried and simulated through 45 nm CMOS inverter in terms of leakage power, delay, and power consumption. In particular, for the clock rates that range from 10 MHz to 200 MHz, the proposed SCAL was more energy-efficient and less dissipative on comparing their pipelined or purely combinational CMOS counterparts. In biomedical equipment, the system may be included into the low-power design since it is energy efficient and very robust. Improvements in VLSI technology, such as increased dynamic range, low-voltage EEPROMs (electrically eraseable programmable ROMs), and specific sensor techniques, are also expected to contribute to advancements in implanted medical devices in the near future.

In this paper, the secure uplink transmission scenario in Internet of Things (IoT) applications is investigated, where one of multiple sensors communicates with the controller aided by the cooperative relay. Firstly, by considering the direct link, an energy-efficient transmission scheme (EET) is proposed, which can be suitable for the resource-constrained devices and applications in IoT communication. Moreover, the secrecy outage probability (SOP) and secure energy efficiency (SEE) of different transmission strategies are derived, which contributes to the design of energy-efficient secure transmission. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that EET outperforms other transmission protocols in terms of SEE in most situations. To improve the secrecy performance and energy efficiency of the IoT deployment, EET can be adopted as an effective additional strategy in practical applications.
