One of the most important aspects affecting the overall performance of hybrid ad hoc networks is the efficient selection of Internet gateways. We have analytically modeled existing proposals (i.e. adaptive, reactive and hybrid gateway discovery) showing that each of them is only suitable for a particular range of network parameters. We propose a new adaptive gateway discovery scheme based on th...

The residential gateway is a device that has become an integral part of home networking equipment. Discovering a Location Information Server (LIS) is a necessary part of acquiring location information for location-based services. However, discovering a LIS when a residential gateway is present poses a configuration challenge, requiring a method that is able to work around the obstacle presented...

Background: The horror of HIV/AIDS as a non-curable, grueling disease is a destructive issue for every country. Drug use, shared needles and unsafe sex are closely linked to the transmission of HIV/AIDS. Modification or changing unhealthy behavior through educational programs can lead to HIV prevention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of theory-based education intervention ...

When Internet Key Exchange Protocol version 2 (IKEv2) is used for remote VPN access (client to VPN gateway), the gateway assigns the client an IP address from the internal network using IKEv2 configuration payloads. The configuration payloads specified in RFC 4306 work well for IPv4 but make it difficult to use certain features of IPv6. This document specifies new configuration attributes for I...

In this research paper, we introduced a gateway based energy efficient Multi hop routing protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) which utilizes minimum energy. In this, Base station is located out of the sensing field and numbers of gateway nodes are deployed at the edge of sensing field. These gateway nodes are rechargeable therefore, it reduces cost. It also reduces traffic problem and r...

Abstract Nanoparticles are the gateway to new era in drug delivery of biocompatible agents. Several products have emerged from nanomaterials quest developing practical wound healing dressings that nonantigenic, antishear stress, and gas-exchange permeable. Numerous studies isolated characterised various nanoproducts. The electrospinning natural synthetic materials produces fine can be mixed wit...

How to competently apportion system resource to process the client request by gateway servers is a tricky predicament. In this paper, we propose an enhanced proposal for autonomous recital of gateway servers under highly dynamic traffic loads. We have developed G/G/1 queuing model algorithm and premeditated its intricacy, so that there is lossless information repossession at each node of gatewa...

One of the issues of youth in Iranian society and Tehran city is drug use. Drug use is influenced by various factors (environmental and individual). In Bandura's cognitive-social learning theory, the process of integrating the individual and social factors on each other has been emphasized. Therefore, this research is shaped by this theory. The purpose of this article is to develop a model of d...

In a previous work, we build an M2M overlay network over the Internet in order to ensure private communication between M2M devices, M2M gateway and M2M applications. We propose in this paper to add the autonomic management of this overlay network. We add the self-healing and self-optimization capabilities to the M2M gateway. The M2M gateway is able to detect failures in the overlay path and rec...
