Towards High Energy Efficiency in the Internet of Things Internet of Things (IoT) protocols provide the fundamental mechanisms to collect data from low power devices and lossy networks. IoT protocols collect data blocks from the devices in messages that have one header and a single payload, regardless the size of the payload. This paper presents a solution to collect small size data blocks from low power devices in an efficient way, carrying these data blocks in the payload of a single message. Current solutions do not offer manners to gather many small blocks of data and reduce the overhead of the communication. The proposed solution is a lightweight layer designed to operate with the standard IoT protocol stack aiming to reduce the energy consumption of the energy constrained devices without lowering the data accuracy. The proposed solution was developed in Contiki devices and the measurements conducted on a testbed showed up to 14% energy savings.

Energy Conservation Based on DestinationSequenced DistanceVector Protocol in Intelligent Internet of Things the Intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) caught a significant attention in research area and plays a major role in the advancement of technologies to expand the connectivity of electronics devices. Recent studies expected that in 2020 there will be more than 50 million devices connected to IoT. Any technology expansion will always encounter several issues in matters of the driven techniques and energy consumption. One of the performance enhancement techniques for internet of things is power saving. In this paper, a new power saving method is presented to reduce devices power consumption in IoT. The system proposed can save energy by putting node or device into sleep mode depending on the trace file extracted of the network, this can be considered as a new intelligent feature. Our approach proved that a significant enhancement can be done to the node performance in IoT.
