The usage of satellite communication (SATCOM) resources by the Department of Defense (DOD) to deliver global IP-based services has increased dramatically in the last decade. The rapid growth in demand for IP-based application services in the DOD and the flexibility of information services in commercial communication networks are influencing the designs of the future DOD communication satellite systems...
This paper identifies regimes of high connectivity and the associated throughput, delay, and energy per bit scaling performance of a power-limited infrastructureless wireless network. Infrastructureless wireless networks are a key strategic technology for future military communications. In their current state, their utility for mission critical applications is limited by their susceptibility to disconnection...
Mobile WiMAX is a broadband technology that is capable of delivering triple play services (voice, data, and video). However, mobility in WiMAX system is still an issue when the mobile station (MS) moves and be handovered between base stations (BSs). This issue can cause unnecessary neighboring BS scanning and association, handover delay, and MAC overhead which may affect real-time applications. In...
Major challenge for TCP is to keep up the new and modern generation in communications networks such as networks with large bandwidth and long delay because when TCP applies on next generation networks will suffer from degradation in performance. The reason behind this shortcoming in performance is due to the congestion control mechanisms supported by TCP variants where these mechanisms depending on...
Wireless mesh networks (WMN) are efficient and low cost solutions for the deployment of broadband access in various environments. To support real-time applications such as multimedia and emergency services, WMNs must provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees and QoS continuity protection. While the capacity of single radio WMNs may severely limit the QoS for such traffic, multiradio WMNs can overcome...
Problems related to network coding for acyclic, instantaneous networks (where the edges of the acyclic graph representing the network are assumed to have zero-delay) have been extensively dealt with in the recent past. The most prominent of these problems include (a) the existence of network codes that achieve maximum rate of transmission, (b) efficient network code constructions, and (c) field size...
A reliable and secure communication network plays a significant role in Smart grid systems, which aims at coordinating generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption parts in power system. The scope of our work ranges from utility level to end consumption level. The major difficulties in this work can be summarized as follows: 1) Performance requirements from the viewpoint of network have...
QoS routing is used for finding feasible paths that satisfy simultaneously multiple constraints and it is a NP-complete problem. The difficulty of solving such problems increases in the hierarchical context, where aggregation techniques influence the path computation process. This paper offers a solution for hierarchical QoS routing by introducing the protocol called Multi-constrained Macro-routing...
Network coding is an emerging and powerful solution that can significantly improve the throughput and power efficiency of wireless networks by allowing mixing of various traffic flows into a single packet. However, when network coding is applied, a packet will have to wait to be network-coded with others, which may result on large delay and packet-loss rate. It will bring negative influence to the...
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are primarily viewed as access networks, with traffic flowing in and out of the mesh via gateways. However, in many scenarios, point-to-point (P2P) traffic within the WMN is also important, with the approach used to handle this traffic affecting the performance of not only the P2P flows, but all other traffic as well. This work studies the handling of P2P traffic in the...
Technology of wireless sensor networks has grown thanks to technological developments in different areas related to microelectronics. However, to become truly ubiquitous, these networks must overcome a number of challenges such as resource constraints (energy, memory, etc.), quality of service (bounded transmission delays), etc. It follows that the energy conservation and latency minimization are...
In delay tolerant networks (DTNs), the lack of continuous connectivity, network partitioning, and long delays make design of network protocols very challenging. Previous DTN research mainly focuses on routing and information propagation. However, with large number of wireless devices' participation, how to maintain efficient and dynamic topology of the DTN becomes crucial. In this paper, we study...
The design and optimization of a communication network is a complex task, because it involves a lot of factors. The two most important factors are the network cost and the communications delay. We have tackled this NP-hard multi-objective optimization problem using two metaheuristics not used before: NSGA-II and SPEA-II, demonstrating that SPEA-II offers better results than NSGA-II. In order to facilitate...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise embedded sensor nodes that operate autonomously in a multi-hop topology. The challenges are unreliable wireless communications, harsh environment, and limited energy and computation resources. To ensure the desired level of service, it is essential to diagnose performance issues e.g. due to low quality links or energy depletion. This paper presents remote diagnostics...
When a large communication network encounters abnormal situations, such as multiple cable cuts or a failure of interface protocol leading to large numbers of propagating alarms may potentially cause many symptom events in multiple network domains. As a result, a network management system may be overwhelmed with a heavy alarm load scenario (a.k.a alarm storm). Appropriate fault management tools are...
In this study, the effects of time slot parameters on the performance of time domain switching optical burst switched networks (OBS) are studied. We investigate OBS networks where all core nodes are able to receive and send data. Network throughput is reduced when bursts are not able to secure necessary time slots for their transmission due to heavy contention at the core networks and lack of proper...
Mutli-domain monitoring aims at guaranteeing QoS for services crossing several domains. It is often desirable to perform global monitoring to guarantee end-to-end QoS for services across domains and to reduce the monitoring cost. However, global monitoring might be infeasible due to confidentiality constraints. The alternative solution is to perform per-domain monitoring. In this work, we propose...
The recently proposed Application Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) framework has opened up a new dimension for Internet traffic management that is complementary to the traditional application-agnostic traffic engineering (AATE) solutions currently employed by ISPs. In this paper, we investigate how ALTO-assisted Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic management functions interact with the underlying AATE operations,...
Today's premium vehicles are some of the most complex consumer goods-featuring a large number of different functionalities. These functionalities are being implemented by numerous Electronic Control Units (ECUs), which are often interconnected with CAN, FlexRay, LIN, and MOST. However, some car models already use Ethernet for high bandwidth applications, like diagnosis, flash update, and multimedia...
With the promotion of IP packet applying to distributed communications network, the capacity of self-organizing network will be an urgent need. The single-channel single-interface model does not meet the requirements of complex systems. In this paper, we build a distributed network topology which refers to features of military communications network, and implement M-ZRP which supports multi-channel...
