A Wised Routing Protocols for Leo Satellite Networks
This Study proposes a routing strategy of combining a packet scheduling with
congestion control policy that applied for LEO satellite network with high
speed and multiple traffic. It not only ensures the QoS of different traffic,
but also can avoid low priority traffic to be "starve" due to their weak
resource competitiveness, thus it guarantees the throughput and performance of
the network. In the end, we set up a LEO satellite network simulation platform
in OPNET to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.Comment: The 10th Asian Control Conference (ASCC), Universiti Teknologi

Untangling the Web: A Guide To Internet Research
[Excerpt] Untangling the Web for 2007 is the twelfth edition of a book that started as a small handout. After more than a decade of researching, reading about, using, and trying to understand the Internet, I have come to accept that it is indeed a Sisyphean task. Sometimes I feel that all I can do is to push the rock up to the top of that virtual hill, then stand back and watch as it rolls down again. The Internetāin all its glory of information and misinformationāis for all practical purposes limitless, which of course means we can never know it all, see it all, understand it all, or even imagine all it is and will be. The more we know about the Internet, the more acute is our awareness of what we do not know. The Internet emphasizes the depth of our ignorance because our knowledge can only be finite, while our ignorance must necessarily be infinite. My hope is that Untangling the Web will add to our knowledge of the Internet and the world while recognizing that the rock will always roll back down the hill at the end of the day
Social capital in urban environments: intersection of theory, research and practice literature
This paper attempts to stretch the understanding of the relationship between social capital and attributes of the physical environment through an exploration of the intersection of social capital theory, urban design practitioner guidance and empirical research on social capital that considers the built environment as a variable. Viewing such knowledge through the lens of social capital, the links, overlaps, and extensions were extrapolated thereby attempting to operationalise
the theoretical notion of social capital, within sustainability assessment
