Literature Review Title: An Overview of the Use of Remote Embedded Sensors for Audio Acquisition and Processing 
Chapter Title:  Energy Management 
1. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB001):  Author(s): Richard Guy; Ben Greenstein; John Hicks; Rahul Kapur; Nithya Ramanathan; Tom Schoellhammer; Thanos Stathopoulos; Karen Weeks; Kevin Chang; Lew Girod; Deborah Estrin | Abstract: The Extensible Sensing System (ESS) has been in use for several years in a variety of sensor network deployments. It is a key component of a collection of tools that together are a nearly complete, end-to-end, sensor-to-user facility for deploying and managing a sensor network. This paper provides the context and architectural overview of ESS, along with selected deployment details and a series of lessons learned. Lesson areas include connectivity, interactivity, energy vs. robustness, vertical integration, and real-time visibility. The current version of ESS reflects changes from these lessons; further, new tools are in development that complement ESS.

Literature Review:
Energy is one of the most difficult challenges in developing a remote embedded acoustic system. Much of the prior work in embedded sensing has focused on low-rate sensing of environmental parameters, such as temperature and humidity BIB001 BIB002 . While low-rate sensors can conserve energy by sleeping much of the time, this problem is much more challenging in acoustic sensing. In addition, the much higher data rates associated with acoustic sampling typically require more processing, storage, and network resources, in general leading to higher energy requirements.
