One of the important issues in wireless sensor network is the inherent limited battery power within network sensor nodes. Therefore, battery power is crucial parameter in the algorithm design to increase lifespan of nodes in the network. Much research has been done in recent years, investigating different aspects like, low power protocols, network establishments, routing protocol, and coverage problems of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, the focus is mainly on energy-efficient hierarchical cluster-based protocols in Wireless Sensor Network, emphasizing on various clustering techniques and routing techniques, Challenges involved in cluster-based routings. Over the period of time many cluster algorithms have been developed like LEACH [2], PEGASIS [3], TEEN[4], APTEEN [5], HEED [6] etc,...

The hand-held market is now seeing an ever-increasing rate of development of computationally intensive applications, which require significant amounts of processing resources. To meet this challenge, GPUs can be used for general-purpose processing. We are moving towards a future where devices will be more connected and integrated. This will allow applications to run on handheld devices, while offloading computationally intensive tasks to other compute units available. There is a growing need for a general programming framework which can utilize heterogeneous processing units such as GPUs and DSPs. OpenCL, a widely used programming framework has been a step towards integrating these different processing units on desktop platforms. A thorough study of the factors that impact the performance of OpenCL on CPUs. Specifically, starting from the two main arc...
