Book Self Organization in Sensor and Actor Networks

Download or read book Self Organization in Sensor and Actor Networks written by Falko Dressler and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-03-11 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-Organization in Sensor and Actor Networks explores self-organization mechanisms and methodologies concerning the efficient coordination between intercommunicating autonomous systems.Self-organization is often referred to as the multitude of algorithms and methods that organise the global behaviour of a system based on inter-system communication. Studies of self-organization in natural systems first took off in the 1960s. In technology, such approaches have become a hot research topic over the last 4-5 years with emphasis upon management and control in communication networks, and especially in resource-constrained sensor and actor networks. In the area of ad hoc networks new solutions have been discovered that imitate the properties of self-organization. Some algorithms for on-demand communication and coordination, including data-centric networking, are well-known examples. Key features include: Detailed treatment of self-organization, mobile sensor and actor networks, coordination between autonomous systems, and bio-inspired networking. Overview of the basic methodologies for self-organization, a comparison to central and hierarchical control, and classification of algorithms and techniques in sensor and actor networks. Explanation of medium access control, ad hoc routing, data-centric networking, synchronization, and task allocation issues. Introduction to swarm intelligence, artificial immune system, molecular information exchange. Numerous examples and application scenarios to illustrate the theory. Self-Organization in Sensor and Actor Networks will prove essential reading for students of computer science and related fields; researchers working in the area of massively distributed systems, sensor networks, self-organization, and bio-inspired networking will also find this reference useful.

Book Implementation and Performance Analysis of a Scalable Routing Protocol

Download or read book Implementation and Performance Analysis of a Scalable Routing Protocol written by Rudhrakumar Venkatesan and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ad Hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks consisting of mobile hosts. They do not have any pre-existing network infrastructure and are characterized by constantly changing topology, limited battery power and bandwidth. Typical applications of such networks are battlefield networks, medical relief during natural calamities or disasters, conference room networking, and intra-vehicular communications. Routing packets in an ad-hoc network is a challenge because of the mobile nature of the nodes and the constantly changing topology. In ad hoc networks, each mobile node functions as a router, forwarding packets, establishing routes and helping each other in maintaining the network. A novel scalable routing protocol SLURP (Scalable Location Updated-based Routing Protocol) addresses these issues of ad hoc networks routing. The protocol is based on a location management strategy, which keeps the routing overhead to a minimum. In this thesis we compare the protocol against an existing set of multi-hop ad hoc network routing protocols that cover a range of design choices: DSDV, TORA, DSR, and AODV. We implemented SLURP in the network simulator ns-2, with the necessary wireless extensions. Experiments were run to simulate changes in network topology, number of active sources, link connectivity, and speed of motion. The difference in performance and scalability are illustrated.

Book Routing and Performance Evaluation of Disruption Tolerant Networks

Download or read book Routing and Performance Evaluation of Disruption Tolerant Networks written by Mouhamad Ibrahim and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis contains two parts. The first part of the thesis focuses on the performance evaluation of routing protocols for disruption tolerant networks (DTNs) when these networks are augmented by fixed relays, termed throwboxes. As a first step, we show through extensive simulations that successive instants of meeting between a throwbox and a mobile node moving according to some random mobility model can be well modelled by a Poisson process. We provide explicit formula for the rate of the Poisson process and we show that this rate depends among others on the spatial stationary probability density function of the mobility model as well as on the probability density function of throwboxes spatial distribution. As a second step, we study the impact of adding throwboxes on the performance of two common routing protocols, namely the epidemic and the multicopy two-hop relay protocols. We develop explicit expressions for the distribution and the mean of the delivery time of a packet, as well as for the number of generated copies. Following that, we propose five routing strategies that rely on the presence of throwboxes to perform packet forwarding. We therefore introduce an analytical framework that is based on a markovian model to compute and to compare analytically diverse performance metrics of these strategies. In the second part of the thesis, we concern ourselves with the design and the evaluation of an adaptive mechanism to enhance the performance of the backoff algorithm of IEEE 802.11 standard. We propose an extension of the backoff algorithm where the objective is to enhance the throughput and the delay performances in the case of high number of active uses.

Book Design and Performance Analysis of Opportunistic Routing Protocols for Delay Tolerant Networks

Download or read book Design and Performance Analysis of Opportunistic Routing Protocols for Delay Tolerant Networks written by Tamer Abdel-kader and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are characterized by the lack of continuous end-to-end connections because of node mobility, constrained power sources, and limited data storage space of some or all of its nodes. Applications of DTNs include vehicular networks and sensor networks in suburban and rural areas. The intermittent connection in DTNs creates a new and challenging environment that has not been tackled before in wireless and wired networks. Traditional routing protocols fail to deliver data packets because they assume the existence of continuous end-to-end connections. To overcome the frequent disconnections, a DTN node is required to store data packets for long periods of time until it becomes in the communication range of other nodes. In addition, to increase the delivery probability, a DTN node spreads multiple copies of the same packet on the network so that one of the copies reaches the destination. Given the limited storage and energy resources of DTN nodes, there is a trade off between maximizing delivery and minimizing storage and energy consumption. DTN routing protocols can be classified as either blind routing, in which no information is provided to select the next node in the path, or guided routing, in which some network information is used to guide data packets to their destinations. In addition they differ in the amount of overhead they impose on the network and its nodes. The objective of DTN routing protocols is to deliver as many packets as possible. Acquiring network information helps in maximizing packet delivery probability and minimizing the network overhead resulting from replicating many packet copies. Network information could be node contact times and durations, node buffer capacities, packet lifetimes, and many others. The more information acquired, the higher performance could be achieved. However, the cost of acquiring the network information in terms of delay and storage could be high to the degree that render the protocol impractical. In designing a DTN routing protocol, the trade-off between the benefits of acquiring information and its costs should be considered. In this thesis, we study the routing problem in DTN with limited resources. Our objective is to design and implement routing protocols that effectively handles the intermittent connection in DTNs to achieve high packet delivery ratios with lower delivery cost.
