While network coding is well known for its efficiency and usefulness in wireless sensor networks, the excessive costs associated with decoding computation and complexity still hinder its adoption into practical use. On the other hand, high-performance microprocessors with heterogeneous multi-cores would be used as processing nodes of the wireless sensor networks in the near future. To this end, this paper introduces an efficient network coding algorithm developed for the heterogenous multi-core processors. The proposed idea is fully tested on one of the currently available heterogeneous multi-core processors referred to as the Cell Broadband Engine.
虽然网络编码在无线传感器网络中的效率和实用性已经得到广泛认可,但其解码计算和复杂性带来的高昂成本仍然阻碍了它在实际应用中的采用。另一方面,具有异构多核的高性能微处理器将在不久的将来被用作无线传感器网络的处理节点。为此,本文为异构多核处理器引入了一种高效的网络编码算法。该思想已经在当前可用的异构多核处理器之一,即 Cell Broadband Engine 上进行了全面测试。
