1 Dynamic Efficiency of Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter takes a dynamic view in a double sense: how do different forms of organization develop in time, and how do they perform with respect to innovation? On the basis of a theory of organizational learning, an attempt is made to explain the relative advantages of large, integrated forms and disintegrated forms of organization (networks). Disintegration and differentiation are required for radical innovation by means of novel combinations in tacit knowledge. When knowlege becomes documented, integration across larger distances becomes feasible, and when economy of scale obtains integration is required to achieve productive efficiency. When technology is systemic, integration is required for coordination of production and incremental innovation. Disintegrated forms can survive more permanently when there are no effects of scale, technology is stand-alone and incremental innovation requires fast response. Large firms can achieve radical innovation when they form federated structures or a "virtual firm", thus emulating networks while retaining some advantages in coordination.

Target Tracking Based on Virtual Grid in Wireless Sensor Networks
One of the most important and typical application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is target tracking. Although target tracking, can provide benefits for large-scale WSNs and organize them into clusters but tracking a moving target in cluster-based WSNs suffers a boundary problem. The main goal of this paper was to introduce an efficient and novel mobility management protocol namely Target Tr...
متن کاملSynchronization for Complex Dynamic Networks with State and Coupling Time-Delays
This paper is concerned with the problem of synchronization for complex dynamic networks with state and coupling time-delays. Therefore, larger class and more complicated complex dynamic networks can be considered for the synchronization problem. Based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, a delay-independent criterion is obtained and formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs)...
متن کاملMulti-layer Clustering Topology Design in Densely Deployed Wireless Sensor Network using Evolutionary Algorithms
Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasin...
متن کاملExpected Duration of Dynamic Markov PERT Networks
Abstract : In this paper , we apply the stochastic dynamic programming to approximate the mean project completion time in dynamic Markov PERT networks. It is assumed that the activity durations are independent random variables with exponential distributions, but some social and economical problems influence the mean of activity durations. It is also assumed that the social problems evolve in ac...
