F4: Building the Internet of Everything (IoE): Low-power techniques at the circuit and system levels

Current projections estimate there will be 25–30 billion devices on the Internet of Things (IoT) by 2020. While technology scaling no longer brings automatic system energy savings, emerging big-data and wearable-monitoring applications require compact autonomous devices. These divergent requirements steer research towards new energy efficiency strategies for compact wireless devices at the circuit (analog, digital), architectural, and system levels.
