On models and algorithms for dynamic communication networks: the case for evolving graphs†

چکیده

New technologies and the deployment of mobile and nomadic services are driving the emergence of complex communications networks, that have a highly dynamic behavior. Modeling such dynamics, and designing algorithms that take it into account, received considerable attention recently. In this paper, we introduce the evolving graphs, a simple model which aims at harnessing the complexity of an evolving setting as yielded by dynamic communication networks. We exemplify its use through the computation of shortest paths under different hypotheses in fixed-schedule dynamic networks.

Toughness of the Networks with Maximum Connectivity

The stability of a communication network composed of processing nodes and communication links is of prime importance to network designers. As the network begins losing links or nodes, eventually there is a loss in its effectiveness. Thus, communication networks must be constructed to be as stable as possible, not only with respect to the initial disruption, but also with respect to the possible...

Edge-tenacity in Networks

Numerous networks as, for example, road networks, electrical networks and communication networks can be modeled by a graph. Many attempts have been made to determine how well such a network is "connected" or stated differently how much effort is required to break down communication in the system between at least some nodes. Two well-known measures that indicate how "reliable" a graph is are the...

Application of n-distance balanced graphs in distributing management and finding optimal logistical hubs

Optimization and reduction of costs in management of distribution and transportation of commodity are one of the main goals of many organizations. Using suitable models in supply chain in order to increase efficiency and appropriate location for support centers in logistical networks is highly important for planners and managers. Graph modeling can be used to analyze these problems and many oth...

Fast Influence Maximization in Dynamic Graphs: A Local Updating Approach

We propose a generalized framework for influence maximization in large-scale, time evolving networks. Many real-life influence graphs such as social networks, telephone networks, and IP traffic data exhibit dynamic characteristics, e.g., the underlying structure and communication patterns evolve with time. Correspondingly, we develop a dynamic framework for the influence maximization problem, w...

Potentials of Evolving Linear Models in Tracking Control Design for Nonlinear Variable Structure Systems

Evolving models have found applications in many real world systems. In this paper, potentials of the Evolving Linear Models (ELMs) in tracking control design for nonlinear variable structure systems are introduced. At first, an ELM is introduced as a dynamic single input, single output (SISO) linear model whose parameters as well as dynamic orders of input and output signals can change through ...
