Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of this project is to establish a fundamental analytical and design framework for highly resilient wireless and sensor networks based on the study of the qualitative and quantitative properties of the largest connected component. Building on our recent promising results in the field of percolation, we propose to design network structures and algorithms to greatly enhance the resilience of high-performance wireless and sensor networks within challenging and dynamic environments. This proposed effort involves further enhancing our understanding of percolation processes and phase transition in networks with general spatial node distributions, multiple transmission power levels, and channel fading. It also involves analysis of network resilience to correlated and cascading node failures, investigating resilience in mobile networks, and developing distributed control algorithms to achieve network resilience using limited communication overhead. Major accomplishments over the period covered by the grant fall into three general areas: 1) improvement of the analytical characterization of the critical threshold for general random geometric graphs with heterogeneous transmission power levels and channel fading, 2) new analysis of the resilience to correlated and cascading node failures in wireless networks, and 3) new analysis of percolation processes in mobile wireless networks, and characterization of the latency for information dissemination in mobile wireless networks.
Download or read book Wireless Sensor Networks Simulation written by Adajeniuc Alexandru and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of wireless sensor networks brought many open issues to network designers. Traditionally, the three main techniques for analyzing the performance of wired and wireless networks are analytical methods, computer simulation, and physical measurement. However, because of many constraints imposed on sensor networks, such as energy limitation, decentralized collaboration and fault tolerance, algorithms for sensor networks tend to be quite complex and usually defy analytical methods that have been proved to be fairly effective for traditional networks. Furthermore, few sensor networks have come into existence, for there are still many unsolved research problems, so measurement is virtually impossible. It appears that simulation is the only feasible approach to the quantitative analysis of sensor networks.
Download or read book Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks written by Roberto Verdone and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-07-27 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When choosing the technology options to develop a wireless sensor network (WSN), it is vital that their performance levels can be assessed for the type of application intended. This book describes the different technology options – MAC protocols, routing protocols, localisation and data fusion techniques – and provides the means to numerically measure their performance, whether by simulation, mathematical models or experimental test beds. Case studies, based on the authors’ direct experience of implementing wireless sensor networks, describe the design methodology and the type of measurements used, together with samples of the performance measurements attained. Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks will enable you to answer vital questions such as: How long will my network remain alive given the amount of sensing required of it? For how long should I set the sleeping state of my motes? How many sensors should I distribute to meet the expected requirements of the application? What type of throughput should I expect as a function of the number of nodes deployed and the radio interface chosen (whether it be Bluetooth or Zigbee)? How is the Packet Error Rate of my Zigbee motes affected by the selection of adjacent frequency sub bands in the ISM 2.4GHz band? How is the localisation precision dependant on the number of nodes deployed in a corridor? Communications and signal processing engineers, researchers and graduate students working in wireless sensor networks will find this book an invaluable practical guide to this important technology.

Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Brooks-Iyengar Distributed Sensing Algorithm, which brings together the power of Byzantine Agreement and sensor fusion in building a fault-tolerant distributed sensor network. The authors analyze its long-term impacts, advances, and future prospects. The book starts by discussing the Brooks-Iyengar algorithm, which has made significant impact since its initial publication in 1996. The authors show how the technique has been applied in many domains such as software reliability, distributed systems and OS development, etc. The book exemplifies how the algorithm has enhanced new real-time features by adding fault-tolerant capabilities for many applications. The authors posit that the Brooks-Iyengar Algorithm will to continue to be used where fault-tolerant solutions are needed in redundancy system scenarios. This book celebrates S.S. Iyengar's accomplishments that led to his 2019 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' (IEEE) Cybermatics Congress "Test of Time Award" for his work on creating Brooks-Iyengar Algorithm and its impact in advancing modern computing.
Download or read book Optimization of Trustworthy Biomolecular Quantitative Analysis Using Cyber Physical Microfluidic Platforms written by Mohamed Ibrahim and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-05-31 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A microfluidic biochip is an engineered fluidic device that controls the flow of analytes, thereby enabling a variety of useful applications. According to recent studies, the fields that are best set to benefit from the microfluidics technology, also known as lab-on-chip technology, include forensic identification, clinical chemistry, point-of-care (PoC) diagnostics, and drug discovery. The growth in such fields has significantly amplified the impact of microfluidics technology, whose market value is forecast to grow from $4 billion in 2017 to $13.2 billion by 2023. The rapid evolution of lab-on-chip technologies opens up opportunities for new biological or chemical science areas that can be directly facilitated by sensor-based microfluidics control. For example, the digital microfluidics-based ePlex system from GenMarkDx enables automated disease diagnosis and can bring syndromic testing near patients everywhere. However, as the applications of molecular biology grow, the adoption of microfluidics in many applications has not grown at the same pace, despite the concerted effort of microfluidic systems engineers. Recent studies suggest that state-of-the-art design techniques for microfluidics have two major drawbacks that need to be addressed appropriately: (1) current lab-on-chip systems were only optimized as auxiliary components and are only suitable for sample-limited analyses; therefore, their capabilities may not cope with the requirements of contemporary molecular biology applications; (2) the integrity of these automated lab-on-chip systems and their biochemical operations are still an open question since no protection schemes were developed against adversarial contamination or result-manipulation attacks. Optimization of Trustworthy Biomolecular Quantitative Analysis Using Cyber-Physical Microfluidic Platforms provides solutions to these challenges by introducing a new design flow based on the realistic modeling of contemporary molecular biology protocols. It also presents a microfluidic security flow that provides a high-level of confidence in the integrity of such protocols. In summary, this book creates a new research field as it bridges the technical skills gap between microfluidic systems and molecular biology protocols but it is viewed from the perspective of an electronic/systems engineer.
