Since more and more enterprises become dependent upon computer communication network or networked computing applications particularly after the growth of local area network, wide area network and internet. Therefore failure of a single component may directly affect the functioning of the network. The nodes and the edges may fail in any real network. In this paper we have proposed an efficient a...

In this work, we study the problem of maximizing path reliability in mesh networks against simultaneous failures of multiple network links. The links belong to shared risk link groups (SRLGs) that have arbitrary failure probabilities. This problem is NP-hard and we propose a heuristic algorithm for networks with large numbers of SRLGs as well as optimal solutions for networks with smaller numbe...

Network reliability is the probability that a dynamical system composed of discrete elements interacting on a network will be found in a configuration that satisfies a particular property. We introduce a reliability property, Ising feasibility, for which the network reliability is the Ising model's partition function. As shown by Moore and Shannon, the network reliability can be separated into ...

The Connection Machine Model CM-5 Supercomputer is a massively parallel computer system designed to ooer performance in the range of 1 teraaops (10 12 oating-point operations per second). The CM-5 obtains its high performance while ooering ease of programming, exibility, and reliability. The machine contains three communication networks: a data network, a control network, and a diagnostic netwo...

Topology control is a technique used in wireless sensor networks to maximize energy efficiency and network lifetime. In previous literature, many tree based techniques have been proposed to save energy and increase the network lifetime. In tree based algorithms, the most promising solution is the formation of a network backbone, which serves on behalf of rest of the nodes in the network and the...

in a mobile ad hoc network, there are some features such as the ability to exploit multipath effect for information exchange with high reliability and low error rate. dealing with the aggressors and discovering the path in data transmission are of importance. approaching these goals ends in network promotion and efficiency. in this paper, the designed protocol is able to discover multipath fo...

Providing a fresh and cool airflow in underground mines is one of the main concerns during mining. Destruction of support systems, the presence of undesirable objects in the airway and distortion of airflow are the parameters involved that would result in pressure loss, which would affect the ventilation network. There are a lot of research works about the ventilation network planning that cons...

The drive for improved power system efficiency, stability and flexibility has served as a catalyst for Smart Grid research and development, so the communications networks in Smart Grid must facilitate the wide-scale utilization of various communications systems, enable the interoperability among various communications protocols, and provide secure and reliable communications for the smart grid....

The industrial world is currently considering the adoption of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for industrial process and control applications. However, when using wireless sensor networks in such application scenarios, network performance, reliability, and robustness must be ensured with high degrees of precision. In this paper we study an outdoor deployment of a wireless sensor network in an oi...
