A plethora of wireless technologies promise ubiquitous communication in the future. A major impediment to this vision is limited energy supply from batteries in these devices. Energy supply has far reaching implications on user experience as well as practicality of many envisaged applications. The energy consumed for radio communication in these devices is a major factor in the operating lifetimes of these devices. This calls for design of network protocols and algorithms that reduce energy consumption due to the wireless interface. In this book we look at three emerging application...
