Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are new emerging multi-hop wireless networks that offer low-cost high-bandwidth community wireless services. Much work has been done so far in order to enhance the performance of these networks. In this paper, by using the optimization framework provided in [1], we study the impact of using some advanced wireless communication techniques on the performance improvement...
As the distributed multi-domain DWDM optical network has been advocated to be the next generation optical network, there is a pressing need to address the inter-domain RWA (Routing and wavelength assignment) problem. Thus, we propose a set of new inter-domain RWA schemes, including a MLP (Most leisure path) routing strategy based on the Hybrid abstraction and a ID-MU (Inter-domain most used) wavelength...
The Internet explosion has drastically increased the bandwidth demand of modern telecommunication networks and as optical networks provide an opportunity for the future Internet, it is expected that Internet providers will gradually replace their infrastructures with optical networks. The Internet is a decentralized set of networks (more than 29.000) known as domains or Autonomous Systems on a well-known...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) detect and monitor the outside physical state by the sensor nodes organizing automatically. Clustering is a standard approach for achieving efficient and scalable performance in WSNs. In the applications of analysis topology discovering, geography routing, tracking and so forth, we need to resolve how to search for the boundary nodes and form the network boundary. Different...
With new optical transport systems able to provide sub-wavelength granularity, the dynamic characteristics of the network are expected to strongly increase. Furthermore, such properties are highly related to the underlying physical network topology, which in turn require from the control plane important features such as scalability, dynamism and automatism. In this paper we analyze the properties...
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is widely used in Emergency Management System (EMS) to assure requirement of safety in current society. For centralized management, it is difficult for conventional systems to assure the real-time transmission of emergency information under rapidly changing situations. Thus, based on the Autonomous Decentralized Community (ADC) concept the main route for emergency information...
The paper presents the comparative study and analysis of buffering in Goback2 network. The performance at the destination node by applying different buffering capacities at the routers is demonstrated. The results using NS2 simulator are produced. It can be concluded that the selection of appropriate type of buffering helps in controlling the congestion and the packet drops at the link node.
Node placement problems have been long investigated in the optimization field due to numerous applications in facility location, logistics, services, etc. Such problems are attracting again the attention of researchers now from the networking domain, and more especially from Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) field. Indeed, the placement of mesh routers nodes appears to be crucial for the performance and...
This paper investigates the traffic handling capability of wavelength routed optical WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) network, exploiting multi-path transmission under a proposed adaptive link weight algorithm. Data transmission through multiple paths improves the connection probability by reducing the wavelength hold time on a link. Further it reduces traffic load on bottleneck links by distributing...
Combining LEO satellite's advantage on transmitting real-time information with GEO satellite's big computing ability, this paper proposes a Snap-based Autonomous Routing Algorithm for GEO_LEO satellite networks. The algorithm utilizes the connectivity rules of inter satellite link to partition network' topology and compute the routing table. GEO satellites can recount routing table for failure region...
Delaunay overlay networks have a Delaunay graph structure, which has spatial locality. This feature is useful for distributed spatial computing, distributed geographical database systems, and geometric routing networks. An incremental construction method of these networks is proposed. The existing method assumes that each communication node can create overlay connections using IDs with all other nodes...
In this paper, we study the performance of the Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) [1] and the Greedy Routing for Maximum Lifetime (GRMax)[2] which is our proposal, in wireless sensor networks in random topology and grid topology wireless sensor network. We decide to compare the performance of GPSR and GRMax in different topology of networks using the same simulation environment. Evaluation...
Today's Internet is a massive, distributed network which continues to grow in size as globalization takes major role in everyone's life. The problem is complicated by the fact that one cannot rely on the cooperation of individual servers and routers to aid in the collection of network traffic measurements vital for these tasks. Packet Forwarding Priority can have a significant impact on the performance...
Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) is being emerged as a prevailing technology in future due to its wide range of applications in military and civilian domains. These networks are easily prone to security attacks, since once deployed these networks are unattended and unprotected. Some of the inherent features like limited battery and low memory makes sensor networks infeasible to use conventional security...
Wireless Body Sensor Networks (WBSNs) have recently gained a lot of research interests due to emerging new applications in health-care, sports and entertainment. As the design of effective network architectures is a key issue to achieve energy-efficient and low-latency communications between the on-body sensors, the 1-hop star and the 2-hop extended star architectures have recently been promoted by...
Link failures in wide area networks are common. To recover from such failures, a number of methods such as SONET rings, protection cycles, and source rerouting have been investigated. Two important considerations in such approaches are the recovery time and the needed spare capacity to complete the recovery. Usually, these techniques attempt to achieve a recovery time less than 50 ms. In this paper...
Due to the significant growth of link speeds, amount of data that should be stored on router line cards are rapidly increasing. Therefore, a large number of memory modules are required for packet storage. In addition, a high performance interconnection network on line cards is strongly needed for inter-communication between processing elements and memory modules. In this paper we propose a new interconnection...
A Network-on-Chip (NoC) is a new paradigm in complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs that provides efficient on-chip communication architecture. It offers scalable communication to SoC and allows decoupling of communication and computation. In NoC, design space exploration is critical due to trade-offs among latency, area, and power consumption. Hence, analytical modeling is an important step for early...
The ICT and network services economy has exhibited large growth rates with global IP traffic expected to reach 64 exabytes per month in 2014. In addition to operational challenges in managing this traffic load, it is widely recognized that new energy saving approaches will be critical to the ICT sector for sustaining growth. In this paper, we use the optical bypass technique - which is a novel network...
Failing to account for the set of links affected by a simultaneous dependent failure during the re-computation of the routing table entries leads to traffic losses until all failed links have been accounted in the re-computation of these entries. Instead, if the router learns about the existence of Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) from the arriving pattern link state routing information, then decisions...
