Abstract :
The paper introduces a methodology for the analysis of energy consumption that can be attributed to scheduling procedures for medium accessing. In particular, it showcases the methodology for a family of tree-search contention resolution algorithms and demonstrates how traditional performance analysis tools for throughput analysis can be augmented to study energy consumption. The paper introduces the concept of energy efficiency as a first class performance metric and evaluates this metric for the selected family of contention resolution algorithms.
