An improved maintenance strategy in ad hoc on-demand routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks

In high mobility and high traffic load network situations, the delay time is affected with high end-to-end delay in reactive routing protocols such as AODV. In this paper we proposed an enhanced receiver-based AODV (ERB-AODV) routing protocol by improving the maintenance phase in AODV. ERB-AODV protocol focuses on decreasing the end-to-end delay and the control overhead in high mobility and traffic load. The receiver node uses a controller agent to update the sender node of the current available path. The agent works depend on the history of receiving data packets. Using glomosim, the ERB-ADOV protocol outperforms the AODV protocol in high mobility and traffic load. Results show that, in high mobility, the delay is decreased by 81% and the control overhead is decreased by 77%. The delay is decreased by 91% in high traffic load, and decreases the control overhead by -77% compared with AODV protocol. These results show the improvement of network delay using the new maintenance strategy on on-demand routing protocols for MANETs

Heart sound monitoring sys

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is among the leading life threatening ailments [1] [2].Under normal circumstances, a cardiac examination utilizing electrocardiogram appliances or tools is proposed for a person stricken with a heart disorder. The logging of irregular heart behaviour and morphology is frequently achieved through an electrocardiogram (ECG) produced by an electrocardiographic appliance for tracing cardiac activity. For the most part, gauging of this activity is achieved through a non-invasive procedure i.e. through skin electrodes. Taking into consideration the ECG and heart sound together with clinical indications, the cardiologist arrives at a diagnosis on the condition of the patient's heart. This paper focuses on the concerns stated above and utilizes the signal processing theory to pave the way for better heart auscultation performance by GPs. The objective is to take note of heart sounds in correspondence to the valves as these sounds are a source of critical information. Comparative investigations regarding MFCC features with varying numbers of HMM states and varying numbers of Gaussian mixtures were carried out for the purpose of determining the impact of these features on the classification implementation at the sites of heart sound auscultation. We employ new strategy to evaluate and denoise the heart and ecg signal with a specific end goal to address specific issues

Resource management in cloud data centers

Vast sums of big data is a consequence of the data from different diversity. Conventional data computational frameworks and platforms are incapable to compute complex big data sets and process it at a fast pace. Cloud data centers having massive virtual and physical resources and computing platforms can provide support to big data processing. In addition, most well-known framework, MapReduce in conjunction with cloud data centers provide a fundamental support to scale up and speed up the big data classification, investigation and processing of the huge volumes, massive and complex big data sets. Inappropriate handling of cloud data center resources will not yield significant results which will eventually leads to the overall system’s poor utilization. This research aims at analyzing and optimizing the number of compute nodes following MapReduce framework at computational resources in cloud data center by focusing upon the key issue of computational overhead due to inappropriate parameters selection and reducing overall execution time. The evaluation has been carried out experimentally by varying the number of compute nodes that is, map and reduce units. The results shows evidently that appropriate handling of compute nodes have a significant effect on the overall performance of the cloud data center in terms of total execution time

VANETs Multipath Video Data Streaming Considering Road Features

Multipath video streaming in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) is an evolving research topic. The adoption of video transmission in VANETs communication has become essential due to the comprehensiveness and applicability of video data for on-road advertisement and infotainment. Meanwhile, several research studies have considered how to apply and improve the transmission of the video quality. Due to this, the concurrent multipath transmission has been employed in order to achieve load balancing and path diversity, because of the high data rate of the video data.  However, the main nature of the road, which is the pathway for VANET nodes has not been considered explicitly. In this paper, the road features are considered for VANETs multipath video streaming based on the greedy geographical routing protocol. Thus, VANETs Multipath Video Streaming based on Road Features (VMVS-RF) protocol has been proposed. The protocol was compared with an ordinary Multipath Video Streaming (MVS). The result demonstrates that the proposed VMVS-RF protocol outperforms the MVS in terms of Data Receiving Rate (DRR), Structural Similarity (SSIM) index and Packet Loss Ratio (PLR)

Energy Efficient Frame Structure for Gigabit Passive Optical Networks

Increasing power consumption in information and communication access networks is one of the major cause of greenhouse gas emissions. These emissions are harmful to life on earth. Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are energy efficient but the broadcast nature of downstream traffic may cause of huge unnecessary processing of frames by the optical network units and result in significant energy wastage. Bi-PON technique tried to solve this problem by changing the XGPON / GPON frame structure to an interleaved pattern but also required additional hardware changings at the optical network units.  In this study, we have tried to achieve the same objective by making a few changings in the GPON frame structure without modifying the existing hardware structure. The simulation results show that 25.25% processing energy of an ONU can be saved by incorporating these changes

Road-based multi-metric forwarder evaluation for multipath video streaming in urban vehicular communication

In video streaming over vehicular communication, optimal selection of a video packet forwarder is a daunting issue due to the dynamic nature of Vehicular Ad-hoc NETworks (VANETs)and the high data rates of video. In most of the existing studies, extensive considerations of the essential metrics have not been considered. In order to achieve quality video streaming in vehicular network, important metrics for link connectivity and bandwidth efficiency need to be employed to minimize video packet error and losses. In order to address the aforementioned issues, a Road-based Multi-metric Forwarder Evaluation scheme for Multipath Video Streaming (RMF-MVS) has been proposed. The RMF-MVS scheme is adapted to be a Dynamic Self-Weighting score (DSW) (RMF-MVS+DSW) for forwarder vehicle selection. The scheme is based on multipath transmission. The performance of the scheme is evaluated using Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural SIMilarity index (SSIM), Packet Loss Ratio (PLR) and End-to-End Delay (E2ED) metrics. The proposed scheme is compared against two baseline schemes including Multipath Solution with Link and Node Disjoint (MSLND) and Multimedia Multi-metric Map-aware Routing Protocol (3MRP) with DSW (3MRP+DSW). The comparative performance assessment results justify the benefit of the proposed scheme based on various video streaming related metrics
