To reduce energy consumption and wastage, effective energy management at home is key and an integral part of the future Smart Grid. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of Green Home Service (GHS) for home energy management. Our approach addresses the key issues of home energy management in Smart Grid: a holistic management solution, improved device manageability, and an enabler...
Pull-based mesh streaming protocols have recently received much research attention, with successful commercial systems showing their viability in the Internet. Despite the remarkable popularity in real-world systems, the fundamental properties and limitations of pull-based protocols are not yet well understood from a theoretical perspective, as there exists no prior work that studies the performance...
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are emerging as a promising technology for backhauling data traffic from wireless access networks to the wired Internet. Such networks are expected to support various types of applications with different quality of service (QoS) requirements. In this paper, we provide a complete cross-layer solution for WMNs together with its OPNET simulation architecture that comprises...
Stream merging techniques utilize multicast to minimize the server resource consumption. However, how waiting requests are scheduled for service in the context of stream merging has not been studied extensively. The improved maximum urgency first (IMUF) scheduling algorithm for video servers applying stream merging is proposed. IMUF considers multiple attributes of the video waiting queue. Three heuristic...
Many protocols designed for wireless sensor networks require the existence of special purpose nodes distributed throughout the network to perform such services as aggregation, access coordination, etc. To avoid inter-node interference, it is desirable to schedule beforehand the nodes that will interact with the servers in a given time interval. Previous solutions either assume a fully connected network...
Networked CNC (computer numerical control) system is the foundation for realizing automation, intelligent and globalization of manufacturing. The transparent model, real-time and deterministic communication of industrial Ethernet is urgently needed. The communication platform based on Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS), TCP/IP and Ethernet is the trend of the next industrial automation communication...
