Fairness and system throughput, influenced by wireless interference, are major objectives of resource allocation in wireless networks. Whereas traditionally max-min fairness protocols have been developed for wired networks (where interference is not a factor for network performance), in this paper we investigate the problem of flow routing and fair bandwidth allocation under the constraints of the...
The current IP network's gateway protocol of routing system can only provide the attainable services of data transmission and do not have the ability to regulating the use of the whole network, which causes the transmissive data streams of the network may gather on the same chain. Thus that can cause local server congestion at the network and the utilization of the network resource coming down. Form...
Network architectures with overlapping cells from more high altitude platforms may provide more reliable services with broader bandwidths than architectures with a single high altitude platform if an adequate load balancing mechanism is in place. Some network architectures and load balancing mechanisms have been proposed recently, but still there is an open space for further improvements in this area...
In recent years, with the information increasing rapidly, WDM communication network traffic is paid more and more attentions. Traffic engineering (TE) is an interesting application in IP-based networks. TE main objective is to optimize the performance of a network through an efficient utilization of network resources. This paper discusses traffic technology and load balancing in optical networks....
An approach to information sharing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) used e.g. in rescue operations, is to store on every node a small amount of metadata describing what information resources exist in the network and where they reside, allowing applications to first search locally for information about suitable resources, and next request relevant information from a node that contains the resource...
In the Internet, with many competing networks each trying to optimise its own bandwidth, a stub network has limited knowledge about user demands, available network resources and routing policies of other networks. This uncertainty makes the task of interdomain traffic engineering for a stub network very challenging. The basic aim of a stub network connected to multiple ISPs (multihomed) is to load...
Routing protocols play an important role for communications in MANET. Most of the protocols, however, use a single route and do not utilize multiple alternate paths. Thus a dynamic multi-path source routing (DMSR) protocol is proposed to improve existing on-demand routing protocols. It consists of three major phases, namely routing discovery, multi-path routing selecting and routing maintenance. In...
Based on the analysis of the node selfishness and the drawback of min-hop selection method as the unique routing selection criteria in ad hoc networks, a non-intrusive multi-metric ad hoc routing protocol-NIMR is presented. By computing and storing the node fame, NIMR greatly attenuates the influence of node selfishness; By crossing-design between MAC layer and network layer, we employ a non-intrusive...
In mesh networks, various types of routing matrix are applicable. This document proposes a routing methodology, which makes use of the ETR (Expected Transmission Rate). The ETR is based on a load balancing metric contingent on the linked bandwidth of each integrated node. This routing methodology can be applied when selecting a relay node based on the present link efficiency between the available...
Internet service providers have to provision network resources to optimize bandwidth utilization. Dynamic routing protocols take traffic variations into account to control the load distribution. Multipath routing protocols attempt to take advantage of the path diversity to bring network robustness and reliability. Indeed, with a specific traffic engineering policy, they enable load balancing across...
This paper presents an integrated routing and MAC scheduling protocol (IRMA) for multihop wireless mesh networks. The IRMA approach is motivated by the fact that the overall performance achieved by conventional layered approaches (802.11 MAC combined with independent ad hoc routing protocols) is significantly lower than the underlying network capacity. We propose to integrate the routing and MAC into...
