Designing a TCP/IP core for power consumption analysis

In this paper, we have introduced our preliminary design results. The goal of our research is to develop fast, low-power TCP/IP hardcore for future pervasive computing. In this evaluation, we have not taken account of switching activity for each node that is one of the most important factors for power consumption. Our on going work is to capture input stream data to real TCP/IP layers in order to improve the accuracy of our measurements.
