    Energy Efficient Network Design for IoT Healthcare Applications
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2017) Sarwesh, P.; Shet, V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things (IoT) is the emerging technology, that holds huge number of internet enabled devices and allows to share the data globally. IoT technology provides effective healthcare service by constant monitoring and reporting the chronic conditions of patients. IoT is highly greeted by healthcare sectors. IoT devices are smart in nature but constrained by energy, because most of the IoT applications uses battery operated smart devices. Hence energy is considered as valuable resource in energy constrained IoT environment. In this chapter energy efficient network architecture is proposed for IoT health care applications. Proposed network architecture describes the suitable combination of two different techniques such as, routing technique and node placement technique. In routing technique energy level of the nodes are monitored, to transmit the data in energy efficient path. In node placement technique, data traffic is balanced by varying the density of the nodes. This chapter describes the major factors that affect energy efficiency and it elaborates the suitable techniques to improve energy efficiency in IoT network. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG.

    Analysis of MapReduce scheduling and its improvements in cloud environment
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) D'Souza, S.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    MapReduce has become a prominent Parallel processing model used for analysing large scale data. MapReduce applications are increasingly being deployed in the cloud along with other applications sharing the same physical resources. In this scenario, efficient scheduling of MapReduce applications is of utmost importance. Also, MapReduce has to consider various other parameters like energy efficiency and meeting SLA goals besides achieving performance when executing jobs in cloud environments. In this work, we have classified MapReduce Scheduling as Cluster based Scheduling and Objective based Scheduling. We then summarize and analyse the different class of schedulers highlighting the strong points and limitations of each of the scheduling approaches. The Adaptive scheduling techniques provide dynamic resource management and meet performance goals. The Energy efficient scheduling techniques aim to cut data centre costs by using different approaches. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and future work. © 2015 IEEE.

    Energy efficient and reliable network design to improve lifetime of low power IoT networks
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Sarwesh, P.; Shekar, N.; Shet, V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things is smart technology that is used in wide range of applications, IoT converges physical devices with cyber systems to facilitate global information sharing. In IoT network, devices are constrained by energy (limited by battery power). Thus, efficient energy utilization is the major challenge in low power IoT networks. In this paper, energy efficient and reliable network architecture is proposed to improve the lifetime of IoT networks. In proposed network architecture, routing technique and node placement technique are effectively integrated to address energy and reliability related issues. In node placement technique, density of sensor nodes are hierarchically varied to balance the energy consumption and reliability related parameters are included in routing mechanism. Hence, effective combination of these two techniques in single network architecture prolongs the lifetime of the network. In proposed work, sensor nodes and relay nodes, sensors do sensing and relay nodes handles path computation and data transmission. We included IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC radio and IPv6 module in proposed work to adopt IoT Scenario. From our results, it is observed that proposed architecture prolongs the lifetime of low power IoT network. © 2017 IEEE.

    Construing microservice architectures: State-of-the-art algorithms and research issues
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2019) Nene, A.V.; Joseph, C.T.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Cloud Computing is one of the leading paradigms in the IT industry. Earlier, cloud applications used to be built as single monolithic applications, and are now built using the Microservices Architectural Style. Along with several advantages, the microservices architecture also introduce challenges at the infrastructural level. Five such concerns are identified and analysed in this paper. The paper presents the state-of-art in different infrastructural concerns of microservices, namely, load balancing, scheduling, energy efficiency, security and resource management of microservices. The paper also suggests some future trends and research domains in the field of microservices. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.

    An Energy-Efficient Hybrid Clustering Mechanism for Wireless Sensor Network
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd wspc@wspc.com.sg, 2015) Muni Venkateswarlu, K.; Kandasamy, A.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Valuable energy resources of sensor network should be utilized wisely to prolong network's lifetime. Clustering technique helps wireless sensor network (WSN) to enhance its lifetime by reducing energy consumption on every individual sensor node in the network. In multi-hop data forwarding model, difference in energy consumption among cluster heads (HS) causes hot-spot problem in the network. While data is being transferred, the CH close to base station are burdened with heavy relay traffic from several data routes and tend to die early. Unequal clustering avoids this hot-spot problem by establishing different sized clusters at various levels in the network. Since unequal clustering technique does not control number of CHs it creates, it forms huge number of clusters in the network. This increases hop count between source and destination, and leads to impose more over head on each data forwarding route in the network. Also, rapid variation in cluster size causes imbalance in energy dissipation among clustered nodes in the network. This uneven energy consumption influences network performance and lifetime. In this paper, we present an energy-efficient hybrid clustering mechanism for wireless sensor network using equal and unequal clustering techniques to create limited number of clusters in varied sizes at various level of the network. This avoids hot-spot problem with minimum hop count between the source and destination and achieves uniform energy dissipation between intra-and inter-cluster communication. Simulation results show that the proposed clustering mechanism balances the energy consumption among clusters with its hybrid cluster formation mechanism and elevates sensor network lifetime. © 2015 World Scientific Publishing Company.

    (IGI Global cust@igi-global.com, 2017) Sarwesh, P.; Shet, N.S.V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things (IoT) is the emerging technology that links physical devices (sensor devices) with cyber systems and allows global sharing of information. In IoT applications, devices are operated by battery power and low power radio links, which are constrained by energy. In this paper, node placement technique and routing mechanism are effectively integrated in single network architecture to prolong the lifetime of IoT network. In proposed network architecture, sensor node and relay node are deployed, sensor nodes are responsible for collecting the environmental data and relay nodes are responsible for data aggregation and path computation. In node placement technique, densities of relay nodes are varied based on traffic area, to prevent energy hole problem. In routing technique, energy efficient and reliable path computation is done to reduce number of re transmissions. To adopt IoT scenario, we included IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC radio and IPv6 packet structure in proposed network architecture. Proposed work result shows, proposed architecture prolongs network lifetime. © © 2017, IGI Global.

    ETRT – Cross layer model for optimizing transmission range of nodes in low power wireless networks – An Internet of Things Perspective
    (Elsevier B.V., 2018) Sarwesh, P.; Shet, N.S.V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things network is managed by battery operated devices and low power radio links since they are referred to low power networks. In present communication era, many research works are concentrating on low power wireless network. Cross layer design is one of the acclaimed technique that decidedly improves the network performance. In this article, we come up with the cross-layer model that satisfies distinct network requirements and prolongs network lifetime. It integrates physical layer, data link layer (Media Access Control) and network layer in the protocol stack. In our model, a threshold value called ETRT (Expected Transmission Range Threshold) is introduced, which is computed with the help of routing information. Later, MAC based power control technique utilizes the ETRT value and assigns optimum transmission range for every node. The idea at the heels of proposed cross layer model is estimating the capability (ETRT value) of the particular node and assigning the suitable transmission power for every node, based on its capability (ETRT value). Hence, assigning optimum transmission power based on ETRT information prolongs the network lifetime with better reliability and Quality of Service(QoS). From our results, it is noticed that the ETRT based cross layer model performs twice better than the standard model. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.
