However, fulfilling that demand is a task which cannot simply be solved by upscaling existing technologies. While most of the research tackles the challenges regarding the transmission technology from the physical layer up to base-band processing, we focus on the challenges concerning the handling of that vast amount of data. The overall goal is to bring together the transmission technology with the operating system to create a suitable end-to-end communication solution. In this paper we argue that communication can be understood as a soft-realtime problem and how that helps introducing parallelism into protocol-processing.}, language = {en} } @misc{TraueNolteEngeletal., author = {Traue, Jana and Nolte, J{\"o}rg and Engel, Philipp and Karnapke, Reinhardt}, title = {Using Emulation Software to Predict the Performance of Algorithms on NVRAM}, series = {Proceedings of the 7th International ICST Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques, SIMUTools '14}, journal = {Proceedings of the 7th International ICST Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques, SIMUTools '14}, publisher = {ICST}, address = {Br{\"u}ssel}, isbn = {978-1-63190-007-5}, doi = {10.4108/icst.simutools.2014.254796}, pages = {142 -- 146}, abstract = {Currently, new storage technologies which unite the latency and byte-addressability of DRAM with the persistence of disks are being developed. This non-volatile memory (NVRAM) may start a software revolution. Traditionally, software was developed for two levels of storage and NVRAM reduces the hierarchy to a single-level store. Current research projects are already exploring the potential of NVRAM, but they face a challenge when they want to evaluate the performance: The new hardware is not yet available. In this paper, we discuss why benchmark results which are gained on existing DRAM are insufficient for a prediction of the performance on NVRAM. Either existing instructions have to be changed or new ones have to be introduced. We further show that the bochs emulator can be used to build systems which resemble NVRAM, to predict the NVRAM's consequences, and it even allows a comparison of algorithms for NVRAM.}, language = {en} } @misc{KarnapkeNolte, author = {Karnapke, Reinhardt and Nolte, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Buckshot Routing with Distance Vectors in Three Application Scenarios for Wireless Sensor Networks with Unstable Network Topologies and Unidirectional Links}, series = {Journal on Sensors and Transducers}, volume = {185}, journal = {Journal on Sensors and Transducers}, number = {2}, issn = {1726-5479}, pages = {53 -- 67}, abstract = {Experiments have shown that the number of asymmetric and unidirectional links often exceeds the number of bidirectional ones, especially in the transitional area of the communication range of wireless sensor nodes. Still, most of today's routing protocols ignore their existence or try to remove their implications. Also, links are not stable over time, and routes become unusable often, resulting in a need for new routing protocols that can handle highly dynamic links and use unidirectional links to their advantage. At Sensorcomm 2014, we presented BuckshotDV, a routing protocol which is resilient against link fluctuations and uses the longer reach of unidirectional links to increase its performance. Furthermore, its distance vector nature makes it scalable for large sensor networks.
