To minimize enormous havoc from disasters, permanent environment monitoring is necessarily required. Thus, we propose a novel energy management protocol for harvesting wireless sensor networks, named the adaptive node (ASMP). The proposed makes system components to systematically control their performance conserve energy. Through this protocol, nodes autonomously activate an additional conserva...

Due to an anticipated increase in air traffic during the next decade, air traffic control in busy airports is one of the main challenges confronting the controllers in the near future. Since the runway is often a bottleneck in an airport system, there is a great interest in optimizing the use of the runway. The most important factors in aircraft landing modeling are time and cost. For this reas...

We consider static ad-hoc wireless networks where nodes have the same initial battery charge and they may dynamically change their transmission range at every time slot. When a node v transmits with range r(v), its battery charge is decreased by β×r(v) where β > 0 is a fixed constant. The goal is to provide a range assignment schedule that maximizes the number of broadcast operations from a giv...

Impossible differential cryptanalysis, the extension of differential cryptanalysis, is one of the most efficient attacks against block ciphers. This cryptanalysis method has been applied to most of the block ciphers and has shown significant results. Using structures, key schedule considerations, early abort, and pre-computation are some common methods to reduce complexities of this attack. In ...

This paper is concerned with fast, hot-potato routing, performed according to a predetermined schedule. At each time period each node selects an outgoing link, through which an incoming packet is sent. No buffers are used. We investigate first the problem of how to route a network-wide demand of packets, given the predetermined schedule. We show that certain versions of the problem have efficie...

This paper presents a new parameter extraction methodology, based on an accurate and continuous MOS model dedicated to low-voltage and low-current analog circuit design and simulation (EKV MOST Model). The extraction procedure provides the key parameters from the pinch-off versus gate voltage characteristic, measured at constant current from a device biased in moderate inversion. Unique paramet...
