Tactical Edge Networks provide one of the most challenging communication environments. In order to cope with node mobility, constrained resources, and link unreliability, communication solutions designed for Tactical Edge Networks typically present highly configurable interfaces to be adaptable for various networking conditions. However, the extreme dynamicity and heterogeneity of tactical scenarios...
Sensors play a vital role in the growth of big data as they are being used in numerous data-intensive applications. This paper introduces a multilayer big data aggregation framework and a priority-based, dynamic data aggregation (PDDA) scheme. The proposed PDDA approach works at the bottom layer at sensors (i.e., data collecting node) as opposed to most existing approaches which only consider aggregating...
As the current decade is witnessing a shift from traditional System — On — Chip (SoC) to Network — On — Chip, but the inherent problems such as congestion, latency and delay still remains the major issues of concern. The effect of these issues in a chip may somehow be minimized by carefully designing a topology and a suitable routing algorithm which offers both path diversity and scalability. In this...
The computer communication research community has a significant interest in the paradigm of ICN. Continuously, new proposals for ICN-related challenges (caching, forwarding, etc.) are published. However, due to a lack of a readily available testbed, the majority of these proposals are evaluated by either theoretical analysis and/or conducting network simulations, potentially masking further challenges...
We introduce a framework for provisioning end-to-end (E2E) managed video services over a multi-domain SDN, where different domains may be operated by different network providers. The proposed framework enables efficient dynamic management of network resources for network providers and ability to request the desired level of quality of experience (QoE) for end users. In the proposed fully-distributed...
Typically, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) provide application-specific networking schemes based on restricted resources. For the reasons, WSN-based routing algorithms can be variously designed for applications. Even if two different WSN applications (e.g., target tracking and temperature monitoring) coexist in a network, the two applications can use different routing algorithms, running simultaneously...
In building automation systems, the diversity of existing field level networks is a major challenge for fully integrated solutions. Typical approaches achieve integration by shifting the needed complexity to the automation or management layer. In contrast, this paper focuses on leaving the complexity at the field level to provide a homogeneous view to upper layers without compromising reliability...
When deploying wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for industrial applications, to provide reliable data transmission as a stringent requirement must be fulfilled. However, due to dynamic industrial environments, interferences and node failures, to achieve this goal faces a number of challenges. Moreover, reliable transmission solution should also be resource efficient, so more wireless sensor nodes can...
The Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is a fundamental component of the Smart Grid architecture. The AMI consists of a collection of Neighborhood Area Networks (NANs), which interconnects the smart meters to the utility company. In this paper, we address two important performance metrics regarding the NAN design, the topology's resilience and the network capacity. We propose an analysis methodology...
We describe a novel wireless backhaul solution, called Self-Optimizing Wireless Mesh Network (SWMN), which is targeted for interconnecting 5G small cell nodes cost-efficiently and smartly. SWMN is not only highly resilient and scalable, but it is also equipped with advanced Self-Organizing Network (SON) capabilities offering autonomous network configuration and traffic engineering features. The key...
Recent works demonstrate constant optimizations in the number of transistors necessary to implement some logic functions by using non-series-parallel arrangements. However, these kind of networks can produce non-dual and non-planar structures, which cannot be fully treated by some of the classical algorithms dedicated to placement. In this paper we present two methodologies to place and route non-series-parallel...
There has been a rapid rise in the IP traffic throughout the Internet which takes advantage of the already established widespread IP infrastructure. Different suggestions are being explored to facilitate the next-generation access networks via IP mechanisms, with a growing trend towards a flat-IP structure and novel topological set-ups in the backhaul. Aligned with this evolution, there are increasingly...
Most African countries including Senegal face a deficit of doctors. This paper presents a new architecture at lower cost allowing the use of Access Point to pass the data from biosensors to the collects used in the field of medicine. The paper proposes a new QoS management prototype to put as priority traffic from biosensors at the expense of traffic from other types of clients in order to receive...
In this paper, we present Heterogeneous Network Clustering (HNC), a novel clustering algorithm for the establishment of distributed service registries in heterogeneous stationary wireless networks. HNC is deterministic and distinguishes between nodes that must, may, or must not become cluster heads and/or gateways — hence heterogeneous networks, such that constraints regarding functionality and energy...
MOS planar technology has been used in fabrication of integrated circuits in the last decades. However, the short channel effects in the subthreshold operation region are becoming a critical restriction to the channel length reduction. With the use of FinFET devices, the scaling increases due the reduction of short channel effects. FinFET offers the possibility of independent gate controlling that...
The expected proliferation of massive number of connected devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) context imposes several challenges and constraints to inter & intra IoT communication. Current mechanism has limited capability for handling a number of aspects associated with this exponential rise in connected devices, types and functions of IoT networks, and availability of heterogeneous modes...
Visual management for industrial wireless sensor network not only requires quickly data process, but also the higher interact ability of graphical interface. However, the visual management has exists now which are just publish the equipment and relationship by list, they are little relate to simulated reality topological distribution. Based on research the topological structure of ISA100.11a protocol...
Point to multipoint multicast (MC) packets delivery without optimal distribution trees is prone to unnecessary retransmissions that adversely influences narrow-band VHF networks. The bandwidth efficient MC packet delivery path has to be calculated to best reach all destinations using the inherent broadcast nature of VHF radio subnets by avoiding retransmissions of the same message/packet in the same...
