Channel-based Architecture for Dynamically Reconfigurable Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Agent technology is often suggested as a tool for developing software that is more adaptive in the face of changes in its environment. In agent-based approaches, complex automated systems are built from components that communicate with each other. To enable adaptive behaviour, both the components themselves and the communication architecture should be easily changeable. This paper presents the common hybrid agent platform (CHAP) that enables dynamic reconfiguration of networks composed of small agents that may be changing themselves.

Dynamically Reconfigurable Routing Protocol Design for Underwater Wireless Sensor Network
Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSN) share the common challenges of terrestrial Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), however they are significantly different from terrestrial WSN. Mainly, because acoustic wireless communication is the main physical layer technology in UWSN. Acoustic communication offers longer range, but has limitations due to low speed of sound, high error probability, limited...
متن کاملReconfigurable and adaptive photonic networks for high-performance computing systems.
As feature sizes decrease to the submicrometer regime and clock rates increase to the multigigahertz range, the limited bandwidth at higher bit rates and longer communication distances in electrical interconnects will create a major bandwidth imbalance in future high-performance computing (HPC) systems. We explore the application of an optoelectronic interconnect for the design of flexible, hig...
