Finding an optimal solution is computationally hard for most combinatorial optimization problems. Therefore the use of heuristics methods aims at finding, if not optimal, near optimal solutions in reasonable amount of computation time. Due to lack of knowledge about the landscape of fitness function, searching the solution space by heuristic methods becomes very challenging. One can search the solution...
In this paper, we deal with connectivity and coverage problem in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). We used Friedman test to compare Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Tabu Search (TS). We found out that GA and TS have difference in their performance. Then, we used the implemented systems WMN-GA and WMN-TS to evaluate and compare the performance of the system for different distributions of mesh clients in terms...
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are currently attracting a lot of attention from wireless research and technology communities due to their ability for providing cost-effective broadband wireless connectivity. WMNs are showing their usefulness to development and deployment of medical, transport and surveillance applications in urban areas, metropolitan, neighbouring communities and municipal area networks...
Achieving network connectivity and user coverage are among the most important objectives in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). These objectives are formulated as optimization problems, which unfortunately cannot be solved to optimality due to their computational hardness nature. Heuristic methods have thus been considered for such optimization problem aiming to compute near optimal solutions in reasonable...
With the emergence of wireless networking paradigm, several optimization problems are showing their usefulness to the efficient design of such networks. These problem are related, among others, to optimizing network connectivity, coverage and stability. The resolution of these problems turns out to be crucial for optimized network performance. In the case of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN), such problems...
