Performance Properties of Combined Heterogeneous Networks

چکیده
In this paper we study the performance properties of combined multiple heterogeneous networks. Consider two nodes node1 and node2 with multiple heterogeneous physical networks connecting them. Each network has some properties such as bandwidth, latency, and packet loss ratio. We develop an analytical model to find the peak performance, or upper bound, of combined networks for the transfer of a message of a given size in parallel. The model is based on the existence of an optimal load balancing mechanism for parallel transfer that fully utilizes the existing networks. The paper provides a framework to find the peak performance parameters of message transfer over combined heterogonous networks as well as to measure the actual utilization and efficiency of parallel message transfer implementations.

Fractured reservoirs contain about 85 and 90 percent of oil and gas resources respectively in Iran. A comprehensive study and investigation of fractures as the main factor affecting fluid flow or perhaps barrier seems necessary for reservoir development studies. High degrees of heterogeneity and sparseness of data have incapacitated conventional deterministic methods in fracture network modelin...

Due to the increasing use of wireless communications, infrastructure-less networks such as Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) should be highly considered. DTN is most suitable where there is an intermittent connection between communicating nodes such as wireless mobile ad hoc network nodes. In general, a message sending node in DTN copies the message and transmits it to nodes which it encounters. A...
