The use of computer communication networks has been rapidly increasing recently to 1) share expensive hardware and software resources, and 2) provide access to main systems from distant locations. The reliability and the cost of these systems are important considerations that are largely determined by placement of the nodes and the links between nodes. In this study, a genetic algorithm (GA) is...

the network design problem (ndp) is one of the important problems in combinatorial optimization. among the network design problems, the multicommodity capacitated network design (mcnd) problem has numerous applications in transportation, logistics, telecommunication, and production systems. the mcnd problems with splittable flow variables are np-hard, which means they require exponential time t...

this study is devoted to the formulation of the network design problem of one-way streets and the application of simulated annealing (sa) algorithm to solve this problem for a large real network. it discusses some points of views on one-way street networks, the objective function used for design, the way in which design constraints may be considered, and the traffic problems concerning one-way ...

This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...

By increasing, the complexity of chips and the need to integrating more components into a chip has made network –on- chip known as an important infrastructure for network communications on the system, and is a good alternative to traditional ways and using the bus. By increasing the density of chips, the possibility of failure in the chip network increases and providing correction and fault tol...

Systems-on-Chip architecture integrates several heterogeneous components on a single chip. A key challenge is to design the communication between the different entities of a SoC in order to minimize the communication overhead. Network-on-chip (NoC) is a new approach for communication infrastructure of Systems-on-Chip (SoC) design, which provides network based solution for on-chip communication....
