چکیده

Cluster formation is an important subject in various areas of physics. In astronomy, ice clusters are believed to aggregate into planetesimals [1], the base of what we know as planets today. In granular materials, our area of research, tiny nanoNewton forces are responsible for macroscopic clusters in free falling jets [3] – similar to the ones that appear in nano jets from plasma physics [2]. Clusters are also found in granular avalanches [4], or air-driven granular beds [5].

Consumer Media Capture: Time-Based Analysis and Event Clustering

fractal, clustering, photography, consumer, capture, organization, management We present an analysis of consumer media capture behavior based on timestamp metadata. We show that it is bursty and is not well described by a Poisson model. We show that it is in fact a fractal process, with fractal dimension characteristic of the capturer. We also present an algorithm for splitting consumer media i...

Study of Cluster Formation Algorithm for Aquaculture WSN Based on Cross-Layer Design

Aquaculture WSN is composed of a large number of nodes with different monitoring function. In this paper, we present a cluster formation algorithm in Sensor MAC for event-driven Aquaculture WSN. The technique proposed is based on cross-layer design which is adopted to reduce the energy waste and guarantee the data transmissions. The event-driven Aquaculture WSN is simulated by OPNET and MATLAB....

EDHRP: Energy efficient event driven hybrid routing protocol for densely deployed wireless sensor networks

Efficient management of energy resources is a challenging research area in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Recent studies have revealed that clustering is an efficient topology control approach for organizing a network into a connected hierarchy which balances the traffic load of the sensor nodes and improves the overall scalability and the lifetime of WSNs. Inspired by the advantages of clust...

Energy-latency Improved Sensor Networks Using Mobile Agents in Textile Industry

The key performance metrics in wireless sensor networks are both network lifetime and an average time required to report an event reliably. The optimal solution must be taken into account to meet these metrics. Considering energy-latency constraints in sensor networks, we have developed a cluster architecture using mobile agents to detect the yarn break in spinning machine in textile industry. ...

The Application of fractal dimension and morphometric properties of drainage networks in the analysis of formation sensibility in arid areas (Case Study, Yazd-Ardakan Basin)

Introduction: Many natural phenomena have many variables that make it difficult to find relationships between them using common mathematical methods. This problem, along with the impossibility of measuring all elements of nature, has led to a major evolution in the way of understanding and explaining phenomena. In this way, one can use the fractal geometry with the theory that many natural phen...
