A topology-oblivious routing protocol for NDN-VANETs
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are characterized by intermittent
connectivity, which leads to failures of end-to-end paths between nodes. Named
Data Networking (NDN) is a network paradigm that deals with such problems,
since information is forwarded based on content and not on the location of the
hosts. In this work, we propose an enhanced routing protocol of our previous
topology-oblivious Multihop, Multipath, and Multichannel NDN for VANETs
(MMM-VNDN) routing strategy that exploits several paths to achieve more
efficient content retrieval. Our new enhanced protocol, i mproved MMM-VNDN
(iMMM-VNDN), creates paths between a requester node and a provider by
broadcasting Interest messages. When a provider responds with a Data message to
a broadcast Interest message, we create unicast routes between nodes, by using
the MAC address(es) as the distinct address(es) of each node. iMMM-VNDN
extracts and thus creates routes based on the MAC addresses from the strategy
layer of an NDN node. Simulation results show that our routing strategy
performs better than other state of the art strategies in terms of Interest
Satisfaction Rate, while keeping the latency and jitter of messages low
An enhanced Multipath Strategy in Mobile Ad hoc Routing Protocols
The various routing protocols in Mobile Ad hoc Networks follow different
strategies to send the information from one node to another. The nodes in the
network are non static and they move randomly and are prone to link failure
which makes always to find new routes to the destination. This research mainly
focused on the study of the characteristics of multipath routing protocols in
MANETS. Two of the multipath routing protocols were investigated and a
comparative study along with simulation using NS2 was done between DSR and AODV
to propose an enhanced approach to reach the destination maintaining the QoS. A
possible optimization to the DSR and AODV routing protocols was proposed to
make no node to be overburdened by distributing the load after finding the
alternate multipath routes which were discovered in the Route discovery
process. The simulation shows that the differences in the protocol highlighted
major differences with the protocol performance. These differences have been
analyzed with various network size, mobility, and network load. A new search
table named Search of Next Node Enquiry Table (SONNET) was proposed to find the
best neighbor node. Using SONNET the node selects the neighbor which can be
reached in less number of hops and with less time delay and maintaining the
QoS
Optimisation of Mobile Communication Networks - OMCO NET
The mini conference “Optimisation of Mobile Communication Networks” focuses on advanced methods for search and optimisation applied to wireless communication networks. It is sponsored by Research & Enterprise Fund Southampton Solent University.
The conference strives to widen knowledge on advanced search methods capable of optimisation of wireless communications networks. The aim is to provide a forum for exchange of recent knowledge, new ideas and trends in this progressive and challenging area. The conference will popularise new successful approaches on resolving hard tasks such as minimisation of transmit power, cooperative and optimal routing
