aBstraCt Due to the new technology development, mobile ad hoc networks are becoming very important. The nodes that make up the mobile ad hoc network are battery powered. The problem of conserving energy at nodes is very important and a challenging one. In this article we present an Energy Aware Multi-path Dynamic Source Routing protocol (EA-MPDSR). This protocol is based on the existing on-dema...

One of the important research characteristic in the Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) is routing. Development of efficient routing protocol is a necessity to improve the performance of routing. We propose an Efficient Interference Aware Multipath Dynamic Source Routing Protocol (EIAM-DSR) based on Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol for MANETs. The main aim of the proposed routing protocol is t...

Quality of Service (QoS) in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is a challenging task because of restricted resource and dynamic configuration. To support QoS, the link state information i.e. bandwidth, delay, cost, jitter, node energy and error rate in the network should be existed and manageable. The concentration of this paper is exploring the scope to QoS routing mechanism, to report the source...

This paper explores which theorizing strategies can be employed in DSR to make a theoretical contribution by examining two illustrative case examples. First, we find that abduction, deduction, and induction all play a role in DSR. Second, we suggest that design theorists can choose among a range of theorizing strategies (i.e., inductive theorizing, deductive theorizing, and hybrid approaches) t...

The genes encoding the desulforubidin type of dissimilatory sulfite reductase (Dsr) from the sulfate-reducing bacteria Desulfobacter vibrioformis and Desulfobulbus rhabdoformis were cloned and sequenced. Similar to the genes for dissimilatory sulfite reductase from the genera Archaeoglobus, Desulfovibrio and Desulfotomaculum the dsr genes were found to form an operon, dsrABD, where dsrA and dsr...

Design Science Research (DSR) is concerned with demonstrating design principles. In order to prove the utility of these principles, design ideas are materialized into artifacts and put into an environment sufficient to host the testing of these principles. When DSR is used in combination with action research, constraints in the environment may restrain researchers to fully inscribe or test such...

Using the client device of a distributed speech recognizer usually implies the presence of background noise since most scenarios for distributed speech recognition (DSR) are situated in a non-office environment. Thus, the general task is to choose the most suitable feature extraction method for the given conditions. We present a hybrid speech recognition approach implemented for DSR that allows...

We report numerical and experimental studies of dissipative-soliton-resonance (DSR) in a fiber laser with a nonlinear optical loop mirror. The DSR pulse presents temporally a flat-top profile and a clamped peak power. Its spectrum has a rectangle profile with characteristic steep edges. It shows a unique behavior as pulse energy increases: The rectangle part of the spectrum is unchanged while t...

Mobile Ad hoc network (MANETs) are rapidly growing as an important area of wireless communication with the technological advancements in the mobile devices. Efficient routing protocols make MANETs reliable. Despite the considerable simulation works, still more investigation is required in the performance evaluation of routing protocols for multimedia traffic especially Variable Bit Rate (VBR).I...

Living Lab (LL) has been used as a milieu as well as methodology for open innovation. However, the impression of LL as a research methodology among academia is still blurring. The LL carries many elements of design science research paradigm such as innovation, artifact, evaluation, design principles, etc. however it still needs conceptual underpinning to proclaim it as a valid Design Science Re...
