The demand for economical wireless sensor nodes have been increased due to advancement in processor, memory and wireless communication techniques. To give the on time and fast response for different actions, wireless sensor nodes work together in cooperation with each other. The most important requirement to maintain the co-ordination among different nodes during execution of an application is perfect...
CUBIC TCP is an enhancement over BIC (Binary Increase Congestion Control) with a cubic window growth function. It has been optimized for high bandwidth-delay product environments and has been the default TCP implementation in Linux since kernel-2.6.18. In this paper, we conduct an experimental evaluation of CUBIC TCP in a small buffer regime; i.e. buffers of the order of a few tens of packets. The...
This paper proposes VEIL-a novel, "plug-&-play" Virtual (Ethernet) Identifier (Id) Layer for below IP networking. The objective is two-fold: i) VEIL directly addresses the scalability, efficiency and reliability challenges facing the traditional Ethernet, while retaining its "plug-&-play" feature; ii) but perhaps more importantly, VEIL provides a uniform (below IP) convergence...
The IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) is a network functional architecture that is seen as a promising solution for facilitating multimedia service creation and deployment, as well as supporting interoperability and network convergence. IMS allows network operators to play a central role in traffic distribution, therefore being more than ??bit pipes??. The move towards all IP architecture for service...
A distinguishing characteristic of wireless sensor networks is the opportunity to exploit characteristics of the application at lower layers. This paper reports on the results of a simulation comparison of proposed data dissemination protocols using the J-Sim simulator for the WSN protocols: Forwarding diffusion data dissemination (FDDDP), decentralized data dissemination (DDDP), credit broadcast...
The merging, management and utilization of pervasive, idle computing devices using a dynamic communication infrastructure leads to the concept of computational grids. A computational grid enables enterprises to efficiently use distributed computing entities in a cost-effective setup for emerging compute-intensive applications. From a network perspective, the key requirement for a computational grid...
This paper introduces an alternative communication scheme that can work as an overlay for existing commodity wireless devices and support communication when conventional communication is not possible. The methodology we propose provides a reliable communication link when presented with an unreliable environment (such as an urban canyon), or even when dealing with an adversary attempting to jam the...
Recent research has created a significant interest [18], [19] in the design and development of a new global-scale communication network that can overcome the limitations of the current Internet. Among the many directions for improving networking technology, recent pursuit to design better flow control has led to the emergence of explicit congestion control methods that solicit active feedback from...
Emerging computer literate society needs mobile services that are tailored to their lifestyles; multimedia-rich applications, seamless Internet- Intranet access, technology convergence and interoperability. They want speedy, simple access to content, personalized services and flexible offers. They do not have time for queues; they are looking forward to cash less society and m-commerce. One answer...
Light-trail as a candidate for dynamic provisioning and sub-wavelength grooming has been investigated before. A light-trail is an example of an intelligent unidirectional wavelength bus. In this article, we extend the conceptual advantages of light-trails to a bidirectional wavelength bus, which we call as SLiT or strongly connected light-trails. We investigate and propose new node architecture for...
