This paper proposes a mechanism for reducing the complexity of forwarding hardware in VLIW/EPIC processors. The necessary information for data forwarding is known at compile time. This paper proposes a way to incorporate the forwarding information along with the instruction itself, thereby reducing the hardware complexity of forwarding logic with implications for power saving and reducing chip ...

The P2P model has many potential advantages (e.g., large scale, fault-tolerance, low cost of administration and maintenance) due to the design flexibility of overlay networks and the decentralized management of cooperative sharing of information and resources. However, the mismatch between the randomly constructed overlay network topology (combined with its broadcaststyle message forwarding inf...

A wireless underground sensor network (WUSN) is defined as a network of wireless sensor devices in which all sensor devices are deployed completely underground (network sinks or any devices specifically for relay between sensors and a sink may be aboveground). In hybrid wireless underground sensor network (HWUSN), communication between nodes is implemented from underground-to-air or air-to-unde...

Time-triggered switched networks are a deterministic communication infrastructure used by real-time distributed embedded systems. Due to the criticality of the applications running over them, developers need to ensure that endto-end communication is dependable and predictable. Traditional approaches assume static networks that are not flexible to changes caused by reconfigurations or, more impo...

Motivation and Related Work ‰Vulnerability of the overlay networks: Because of openness to participating in message forwarding and a lack of facilities ensuring the forwarding integrity, adversaries can easily disrupt the normal lookup message forwarding. ‰Severe damage caused by forwarding attacks: Even a small percentage of faulty nodes that inject forwarding faults can seriously degrade the ...

As the discovery of non-Poissonian statistics of human mobility trajectories, more attention has been paid to understanding the role of these patterns in different dynamics. In this study, we first introduce the heterogeneous mobility of mobile agents into dynamical networks, and then investigate the forwarding strategy on the heterogeneous dynamical networks. We find that the faster speed and ...

Gossip is a well-known protocol which was proposed to implement broadcast service with a high reliability in an arbitrarily connected network of sensor nodes. The probabilistic techniques employed in gossip have been used to address many challenges which are caused by flooding in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, very little work has yet been done on real-time wireless sensor networks w...
