Bicriteria Resource Allocation Problem in Pert Networks
We develop a bicriteria model for the resource allocation problem in PERT networks, in which the total direct costs of the project as the first objective, and the mean of project completion time as the second objective are minimized. The activity durations are assumed to be independent random variables with either exponential or Erlang distributions, in which the mean of each activity duration ...
متن کاملSecured IPsec Multicast Architecture Based on Quantum Key Distribution
Multicasting reveals to the delivery of a message or information from one source to multiple recipients simultaneously through a single transmission channel. Securing the transmitted multicast information can be achieved through IPsec multicast architecture. The process of IPsec involves the sender and destinations to agree on IPsec keys. These keys are used for protection transmitted informati...
متن کاملResource Allocation Policies in SDM Optical Networks
The capacity benefits of flexi-grid optical networks are limited by the finite amount of bandwidth of standard fibers, and will not be able to scale indefinitely. Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) has emerged as a promising technology to overcome this limitation. In this preliminary work we give an overview of current SDM technologies, covering coupled and non-coupled SDM networks, and of the p...
متن کاملSecurity analysis of quantum key distribution on passive optical networks.
Needs for providing security to end users have brought installation of quantum key distribution (QKD) in one-to-many access networks such as passive optical networks. In the networks, a presence of optical power splitters makes issues for secure key rate more important. However, researches for QKD in access networks have mainly focused on implementation issues rather than protocol development f...
متن کاملLimited Resource Semi-Quantum Key Distribution
A semi-quantum key distribution (SQKD) protocol allows a quantum user and a limited “classical” user to establish a shared secret key secure against an allpowerful adversary. In this work, we present a new SQKD protocol where the quantum user is also limited in her measurement capabilities. We describe the protocol, prove its security, and show its noise tolerance is as high as “fully quantum” ...
