Analytical Modeling of Medium Access Control Protocols in Wireless Networks

Analytical Modeling of Medium Access Control Protocols in Wireless Networks

This paper presents an architectureindependent modeling infrastructure called the Energy Introspector for estimating non-functional aspects of processors such as energy, power, temperature, area, delay, sensor, and reliability. The Energy Introspector supports processor modeling through the integration of various modeling tools. It features structural abstraction of physical and microarchitectu...

To solve the problems of modeling telecommunications networks currently used by a large number of different methods. All of them can be divided into two classes1-5. First class combines methods of physical modeling in which, instead of the real system uses its simplified physical counterparts. In view of the significant limitations of these methods, they are rarely The second class includes met...

In the last few years, the modeling of business processes has achieved considerable popularity in organizations and academic research. However, business process modeling is often studied from either a technical or a social perspective, and as a result of this a priori fragmentation, tends to overlook the sociotechnical complexity involved in modeling projects. To overcome this problem, this pap...

Feed-forward model-based control relies on models of the controlled plant, e.g., in robotics on accurate knowledge of manipulator kinematics or dynamics. However, mechanical and analytical models do not capture all aspects of a plant's intrinsic properties and there remain unmodeled dynamics due to varying parameters, unmodeled friction or soft materials. In this context, machine learning is an...

BACKGROUND There is great interindividual variation in systolic blood pressure (SBP) as a result of the influences of several factors, including sex, ancestry, smoking status, medication use, and, especially, age. The majority of genetic studies have examined SBP measured cross-sectionally; however, SBP changes over time, and not necessarily in a linear fashion. Therefore, this study conducted ...

To preserve private information while providing thorough analysis is one of the significant issues in OLAP systems. One of the challenges in it is to prevent inferring the sensitive value through the more aggregated non-sensitive data. This paper presents a novel algorithm FMC to eliminate the inference problem by hiding additional data besides the sensitive information itself, and proves that ...

Online analytical processing (OLAP) as a modern business intelligence (BI) concept provides support for representing vast amounts of data for supporting management " s decisions. Though, there is no inherent support for the representation of causal structures which could provide a foundation for advanced analysis like what-if or scenario techniques. System Dynamics (SD) is an approach with a lo...
