Nowadays, wireless multihop networks, providing mesh connectivity emerge as alternative network infrastructure for numerous applications such as shared broadband Internet access, monitoring for emergency, medical and security reasons, distributed backup and multimedia applications. Since these networks are highly decentralized and self-organized, routing becomes a critical factor for their perf...

In this paper, we present an on-demand flow regulated routing algorithm (OFRA) for ad hoc wireless networks. The OFRA consists of two parts: an intermediate node load evaluation process and a routing path selection process. The intermediate node load evaluation process evaluates the load efficiency of the intermediate nodes according to bandwidth, data packets and computing capability. The rout...

Multi-path is favorite alternative for sensor networks, as it provides an easy mechanism to distribute traffic, as well as considerate fault tolerance. In this paper, a new clustering based multi path routing protocol namely ECRR (Energy efficient Cluster based Routing algorithm for improving Reliability) is proposed, which is a new routing algorithm and guarantees the achievement to required Q...

Most existing grid-based routing protocols use reactive mechanisms to build routing paths. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid approach for grid-based routing in MANETs which uses a combination of reactive and proactive mechanisms. The proposed routing approach uses shortest-path trees to build the routing paths between source and destination nodes. We design a new protocol based on this app...

Pip is an internet protocol that scales efficiently encodes policy. It facilitates many advanced features, such as mobility and multiple defaults routing, and has a well-bounded routing table lookup, and is therefore fast. Pip is proposed as an alternative to the two “medium term” proposals that emerged from the Road (Routing and Addressing) group to deal with the dual IP problems of scaling an...

in this paper, we investigate a decision support system (dss) for the resolution of real-life vehicle routing and scheduling problem (vrsp). scheduling the deliveries from a regional distribution centre (rdc) to large stores of a major fmcg retailer includes every possible vehicle routing complexity. usual constraints that are seen are: size of the vehicle and the length of the driving day, loa...

Routing overlays aim to accomplish some of the anticipated advanced routing features of the Future Internet [1]. First, they are expected to achieve higher reliability than the current Internet by bridging between different AS and providing alternative routes in case of failures [2]. Second, routing overlays can implement interdomain performance management when choosing appropriate intermediary...
