Due to its characteristics such as long communication delay, high dynamic topology, sparse distribution of nodes and frequent link break, routing are the key research issues of delay tolerant networks. Prophet algorithm forwards the packets to the node with maximum probability of successful delivery by recording history information of nodes encounter. Prophet reduces the invalid copy of message...

This paper describes a weather-impacted traffic index based on three-dimensional weather information and applies it to air traffic delay estimation. The weather-impacted traffic indices were generated using the high-resolution Corridor Integrated Weather System, which provides accurate, automated and high update rate information on both convective weather location and echo tops. In contrast to ...

We study the delay minimization in a direct multicast communication scheme where a base station wishes to transmit a set of original packets to a group of clients. Each of the clients already has in its cache a subset of the original packets, and requests for all the remaining packets. The base station communicates directly with the clients by broadcasting information to them. Assume that bandw...

using a hierarchical hybrid fuzzy model, this paper presents an intelligent system to manage the traffic of ambulances and the vehicles for transporting blood and blood products and generally the transportation related to health emergencies. the transportation of emergency patients, emergency accidents and health-related emergencies, and the transportation of blood and blood products should be ...

Does the sustained, elevated neural activity observed during working memory tasks reflect the short-term retention of information? Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data of delayed recognition of visual motion in human participants were analyzed with two methods: a general linear model (GLM) and multivoxel pattern analysis. Although the GLM identified sustained, elevated delay-period...

The global games literature shows that perturbing a complete information coordination game with correlated private information unleashes strategic uncertainty that can act, in domino fashion, to rule out all but a single dominance-solvable equilibrium. We show (in a two-player model) that when players also have the option to delay acting, the domino chain is broken, and multiple equilibria resu...

In this article, an H∞ filtering problem for continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with multiple time-varying delays in state variables is addressed. Based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach, a delay-dependent sufficient conditions is obtained. Unlike the existing results requiring the information on derivative of delay time, the condition we proposed is free from derivative information on d...
