Proportional Fairness Based Energy Efficient Routing in Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an independent device that comprises a discrete collection of Sensor Nodes (SN) to sense environmental positions,device monitoring, and collection of information. Due to limited energy resourcesavailable at SN, the primary issue is to present an energy-efficient framework andconserve the energy while constructing a route path along with each sensor node.However, many energy-efficient techniques focused drastically on energy harvesting and reduced energy consumption but failed to support energy-efficient routingwith minimal energy consumption in WSN. This paper presents an energy-efficientrouting system called Energy-aware Proportional Fairness Multi-user Routing(EPFMR) framework in WSN. EPFMR is deployed in the WSN environment usingthe instance time. The request time sent for the route discovery is the foremost stepdesigned in the EPFMR framework to reduce the energy consumption rate. Theproportional fairness routing in WSN selects the best route path for the packet flowbased on the relationship between the periods of requests between different SN.Route path discovered for packet flow also measure energy on multi-user route pathusing the Greedy Instance Fair Method (GIFM). The GIFM in EPFMR developsnode dependent energy-efficient localized route path, improving the throughput.The energy-aware framework maximizes the throughput rate and performs experimental evaluation on factors such as energy consumption rate during routing,Throughput, RST, node density and average energy per packet in WSN. The RouteSearching Time (RST) is reduced using the Boltzmann Distribution (BD), and as aresult, the energy is minimized on multi-user WSN. Finally, GIFM applies aninstance time difference-based route searching on WSN to attain an optimal energyminimization system. Experimental analysis shows that the EPFMR framework canreduce the RST by 23.47% and improve the throughput by 6.79% compared withthe state-of-the-art works.

Initial allocation of carbon emission permits in power systems

Initial allocation modes and schemes are studied in this paper to provide guidelines for allocation of carbon emission permits in power system. We first introduce different allocation modes and the need to apply free allocation to assignability of emission permits. Then, we compare two different allocation schemes, which are based on historical emissions and generation performance standard. Further, a new allocation scheme based on Boltzmann distribution is proposed. Finally, a case study on Shanghai power grid in China is conducted to compare the allocation effects of these schemes respectively. The analytical results show that Boltzmann distribution based scheme has the best performance and should be adopted when developing initial allocation of carbon emission permits in Chinese power systems.

A Neglected Issue in Testing Particles in the Solution

The particles are one of the most promising materials in the 21st century,and have become one of the research hotspots in many disciplines111.In the process of application or characterization,it is usually necessary to disperse the particles(the particle size is commonly less than 1 pm)in the solvent121.It is generally believed that the particles in the solution are uniformly distributed after simple handling,such as ultrasonication,shaking,or pipetting131.If the density of particles is different from that of the solvent,the particles in the solution will sink(assuming Boltzmann distribution according to the most probable macroscopic state of statistical thermodynamics)due to the influence of the gravNational potential field(Fig.l).
