AODV is a prominent routing protocol for MANET that uses hop count as a path selection metric. However, AODV has no means to convey traffic load on current route. This study focuses on introducing a new metric, Aggregate Interface Queue Length (AIQL), in AODV in order to deal with load balancing issues. Performance evaluation through simulation shows that the modified code can perform better th...

Cloud computing has received increasingly attention from network computing model research, which can realize several kinds of resource sharing and dynamic resource allocation. However, how to effectively route storage resource in cloud, reduce dynamic load and cross data center data transmission, take into account global load balancing are important problems to be solved. This paper proposes a ...

In wireless sensor networks, multi-path routing is proposed for energy balancing which prolongs the network lifetime as compared to single-path routing where utilization of a single route between a source node and the base station results in imbalanced energy dissipation. While it is evident that increasing the number of routing paths mitigates the problem of energy over-utilization in a subset...

Quantum criticality provides an important route to revealing universal non-equilibrium behaviour. A canonical example of a quantum critical point is the Bose-Hubbard model, which we study under the application of an electric field. A Boltzmann transport formalism and ǫ-expansion are used to obtain the non-equilibrium conductivity and current noise. This approach allows us to explicitly identify...

Once multihomed, an IPv6 site usually wants to engineer its interdomain traffic. We propose that IPv6 multihomed hosts inquire a so called “Name, Address and ROute System” (NAROS) to determine the source and destination addresses to use to contact a destination node. By selecting these addresses, the NAROS server roughly determines the routing. It thereby provides features like traffic engineer...

The use of intravenous (i.v.) contrast media in CT examinations is often of great value in improving diagnostic accuracy. The preferable route of administration is via a peripheral i.v. cannula, with powered injectors allowing reliable delivery of rapid flow rates. However, many patients with a pre-existing central venous access device may have difficult peripheral access and there is a temptat...

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network which has dynamic nature with infrastructure less without a central administration. In MANETs link failure occurs due to topological changes of mobile node which causes high data loss and delay, so the performance is enhanced by predicting the link break in prior. The most challenging fact in the routing process is affording the energy profici...

An Ad-hoc Network is a self organizing and self configuring wireless network. It is a temporary network established without the aid of stand-alone infrastructure. The topology of an ad-hoc network changes dynamically. The topology changes due to departure or arrival of a node. The nodes in mobile ad-hoc network acts as host as well as routers that routes the packets to the destination node. The...
