A key principle for optimizing network performances is to understand the relationship between network topology, configuration parameters, and their influence on the behavior of network protocols. While an attractive approach to this problem is to use formal models of protocols in combination with mathematical optimization, such methods are often limited by either poor scalability or approximations...
This paper presents the problem of minimizing energy consumption and maximizing lifetime in a many-to-one sensor network. In such network pattern, all sensor nodes generate and send data to a single and fixed base station (BS), via multi-hop transmissions. When all the sensor data have to be forwarded to a single BS via multi-hop routing, the traffic pattern is highly non-uniform, putting a high burden...
In two recent contributions, we have provided a comparative analysis of various optimization algorithms, which can be used for atomic location estimation, and suggested an enhanced version of the Steepest Descent (ESD) algorithm, which we have shown to be competitive with other distributed localization algorithms in terms of estimation accuracy and numerical complexity. Moreover, therein we have conducted...
Most network operators have considered reducing Label Switched Routers (LSR) label spaces (i.e. the number of labels that can be used) as a means of simplifying management of underlaying Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and, hence, reducing operational expenditure (OPEX). This letter discusses the problem of reducing the label spaces in Multiprotocol Label Switched (MPLS) networks using label merging...
The next generation of wireless communication is a ubiquitous radio system concept, providing wireless access from short-range to wide-area, with one single reconfigurable and adaptive system for all envisaged radio environments. This paper presents the design approach of RCO (reconfigurable concurrent oscillator) that simultaneously generates two or more signals of different frequencies that eliminate...
