VLSI Challenges to more Energy Efficient Devices
For the mobile platforms, delivering the power efficiently to the advanced technology VLSI is a priority. Nearly half of the area in the modern handheld devices is used for conversion of power to the low voltages required by the advanced technology. The voltage is scaling down with technology and hence the tolerances required by the circuits for reliable operation is reducing. The present state of the art is discussed in the article. There is a yawning gap between the trends in the for ....etc

high speed underwater acoustic modems is shown in this paper. high speed digital communication and broadband underwater acoustics technologies have been combined to achieve this . increased data rate and decreased power consumption is achieved by Broadband Spread Spectrum Technology. The underwater communication has to deal with noises such as offshore drilling noise, ambient noise, ship noise etc. no communication errors has been seen to appear with these noises.

1. INTRODUCTION
As more and more attention is paid to the ocean, the requirement of exploration and exploitation to it grows increasingly. In order to realize some tasks in the ocean such as collection of the information, monitoring of the environment, exploration of energy sources, forecast of natural disaster, assistant navigation, underwater communication technique has become a very important scientific research field. Because acoustic wave is adopted to actualize communication in the water instead of electromagne ....etc

Abstract

The use of sensor networks in aquatic environments has been quite limited, partially due to the harsh underwater environments and associated high system costs. Nevertheless, cost-effective and resource-efficient Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) will bring significant benefits to numerous aquatic applications. The unique properties of underwater environments raise many new challenges in building an efficient UWSN. We will discuss several architectural challenges and possible research topics in this paper.

BackGround
A CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) based communication system allows the users to share an available frequency spectrum. The users are allocated different codes that are recognizable for the preferred receivers. This solution has several advantages, among other it gives increased robustness to interference. The CDMA project will investigate the benefits and losses of using CDMA communication system on an acoustic channel between two computers. The focus of the project will be to study how a higher data rate will affect ....etc

Abstract
Ocean bottom sensor nodes can be used for oceanographicdata collection, pollution monitoring, offshore explorationand tactical surveillance applications. Moreover, Unmannedor Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (UUVs, AUVs),equipped with sensors, will find application in exploration ofnatural undersea resources and gathering of scientific data incollaborative monitoring missions. Underwater acoustic networkingis the enabling technology for these applications. UnderwaterNetworks consist of a variable number of sensors and vehiclesth ....etc
