While previous work on energy-efficient algorithms focused on assumption that tasks can be assigned to any processor, we initially study the problem of task scheduling on restricted parallel processors. The objective is to minimize the…

Joint optimization of scheduling and estimation policies is considered for a system with two sensors and two non-collocated estimators. Each sensor produces an independent and identically distributed sequence of random variables, and each…

Over the last two decades the organic solar cell community has synthesised tens of thousands of novel polymers and small molecules in the search for an optimum light harvesting material. These materials were often crudely evaluated simply…

In this paper, we consider a scenario where one energy harvesting and one battery operated sensor cooperatively transmit a common message to a distant base station. The goal is to find the jointly optimal transmission (power allocation)…

We consider the problem of data collection from a continental-scale network of energy harvesting sensors, applied to tracking mobile assets in rural environments. Our application constraints favour a highly asymmetric solution, with heavily…

Low cost, highly efficient, and stable solar cells demand low temperature processing, less stringent criteria on materials, and possibility of dynamic recovery from long term degradation: a combination of features unachievable from the…

The charge carrier mobility is a key parameter for the organic bulk heterojunction solar cell efficiency. It was recently shown that the interplay charge carrier transport and recombination, both depending on electron and hole mobilities,…

We revisit the non-preemptive speed-scaling problem, in which a set of jobs have to be executed on a single or a set of parallel speed-scalable processor(s) between their release dates and deadlines so that the energy consumption to be…

One of the current trends related to data centers is providing it with renewable energy sources. This paper suggests an analysis technique for a model uses solar panels energy to power a data center consists of 100 traditional servers,…

We consider the problem of scheduling on a single processor a given set of n jobs. Each job j has a workload w_j and a release time r_j. The processor can vary its speed and hibernate to reduce energy consumption. In a schedule minimizing…

For energy-harvesting sensor nodes, rechargeable batteries play a critical role in sensing and transmissions. By coupling two simple Markovian queue models in a delay-tolerant networking setting, we consider the problem of battery sizing…

Solar energy is the most convenient and reliable energy source among all renewable energy resources and an efficient photovoltaic device is required to convert this energy into utilizable energy. Different types of solar cells (SC) are…

A sensor node that is sending measurement updates regarding some physical phenomenon to a destination is considered. The sensor relies on energy harvested from nature to transmit its updates, and is equipped with a finite $B$-sized battery…

We study classical deadline-based preemptive scheduling of tasks in a computing environment equipped with both dynamic speed scaling and sleep state capabilities: Each task is specified by a release time, a deadline and a processing volume,…

Hot carrier solar cells allow potential efficiency close to the thermodynamical limit in ideal conditions. However, the feasability of such devices has not been clearly stated so far and only ideal cells were considered in previous studies.…

Organic solar cells (OSCs) have received a special attention over the past years due to their solution processability, low cost, flexibility and capability of role-to-role production. The power conversion efficiency of these devices has…

The power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells based on donor--acceptor blends is governed by an interplay of polaron pair dissociation and bimolecular polaron recombination. Both processes are strongly dependent on the charge…
