multi-path is favorite alternative for sensor networks, as it provides an easy mechanism to distributetraffic, as well as considerate fault tolerance. in this paper, a new clustering based multi path routingprotocol namely ecrr (energy efficient cluster based routing algorithm for improving reliability) isproposed, which is a new routing algorithm and guarantees the achievement to required qos ...

By our analysis, the QoS routing is the optimization problem under the satisfaction of multiple QoS constraints. The Particles Swarm Optimization (PSO) is an optimization algorithm which has been applied to finding shortest path in the network. However, it might fall into local optimal solution, and is not able to solve the routing based on multiple constraints. To tackle this problem, we propo...

In this paper, the fuzzy multi-depot vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery (FMDVRP-SPD) is investigated. The FMDVRP-SPD is the problem of allocating customers to several depots, so that the optimal set of routes is determined simultaneously to serve the pickup and the delivery demands of each customer within scattered depots. In the problem, both pickup and delivery dema...

between source and destination satisfying the QoS requirements which efficiently using the network resources and underlying routing algorithm and to find low-cost paths that satisfy given QoS constraints. One of the key issues in providing end-to-end QoS guarantees in packet networks is determining feasible path that satisfies a number of QoS constraints. We present a Optimized Multi-Constraine...

Routing algorithm plays a critical role in determining the performance and reliability of a satellite network. Since the resources in satellite networks are constrained, it is a big challenge to find paths that satisfy all QoS requirements in a low cost for satellite network users. In this paper, a novel routing scheme together with two multi objective optimization routing algorithms-prior orde...

Ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks having dynamic topology due to node mobility. Routing protocols for such networks should be able to respond rapidly to topological changes. Designing and analyzing routing protocols for handling time-constrained messages in such dynamic environment is very crucial. A number of routing protocols have been proposed that deal with time-constrained me...

We study the problem of integrated topology control and routing in Free Space Optical (FSO) mesh backbone networks. FSO links are high-bandwidth, low interference links that can be set-up very fast, making them suitable for mesh networking. FSO networks are highly constrained by interface constraints, i.e., constraints on the number of FSO links a node can establish. We prove the problem to be ...

in the recent decade, special attention is paid to reverse logistic due to economic benefits of recovery and recycling of used products as well as environmental legislation and social concerns. on the other hand، many researches claim that separately and sequential planning of forward and reverse logistic causes sub-optimality. effective transport activities are also one of the most important c...
