Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks should transfer a large quantity of multimedia data in a timely manner within a limited time; thus, it is very important to provide a low degree of delay and the maximum throughput. This paper proposes an efficient traffic control mechanism of multimedia data requiring real-time transmission in wireless multimedia sensor network with the path determination ba...

We present an efficient routing approach for delivering packets in complex networks. On delivering a message from a node to a destination, a node forwards the message to a neighbor by estimating the waiting time along the shortest path from each of its neighbors to the destination. This projected waiting time is dynamical in nature and the path through which a message is delivered would be adap...

The main issue addressed in this paper is the quality of service (QoS) routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). The objective is to improve the packet delivery ratio in QoS constrained communications in comparison to other well-known protocols that use distributed multi-path routing. To accomplish that, a new protocol is developed to reduce the effects of distrustful environment of ...

Path and path deviation equations for charged, spinning and spinning charged objects in different versions of Kaluza-Klein (KK) theory using a modified Bazanski Lagrangian have been derived. The significance of motion in five dimensions, especially for a charged spinning object, has been examined. We have also extended the modified Bazanski approach to derive the path and path deviation equatio...

Link prediction in social networks aims at estimating the likelihood of the appearance of a new link between two nodes, based on the existing links and the attributes of the nodes. Many methods for link prediction problem in social networks have been proposed in literature. We especially analyze the shortcomings of common neighbor leading method. Accordingly we generate a new modified common ne...

Channel-specific path data for a 46-node 2.4 GHz sensor network deployed in an industrial setting is presented. Each node generates one data packet every 28 seconds with the number of transmissions, received acknowledgements, average RSSI, and other metrics for a path to a single neighbor on a single channel for every 15 minutes of operation. Four days of data were recorded, revealing the scale...

In this paper, a novel approach based on the Thévenin tracing is presented to modified conventional impedance-based out-of-step (OOS) protection. In conventional approach, the OOS detection is done by measuring positive sequence impedance. However, the measured impedance may be change due to different factors such as capacitor bank switching and reactive power compensators that it can cause the...

There has been a growing interest in image jigsaw puzzles with square shaped pieces. A solver takes as input square shaped patches of the same size belonging to an image and attempts to reconstruct the image. The key components of a jigsaw solver are a compatibility metric and an assembly algorithm. A compatibility metric uses the color content of the image patches to identify which pairs of pi...
