Routing is one of the basic parts of a message passing multiprocessor system. The routing procedure has a great impact on the efficiency of a system. Neural algorithms that are currently in use for computer networks require a large number of neurons. If a specific topology of a multiprocessor network is considered, the number of neurons can be reduced. In this paper a new recurrent neural ne...

We describe a WDM-based optical access network architecture for providing broadband Internet services. The architecture uses a passive collection and distribution network and a configurable Feeder network. Unlike earlier papers that concentrate on the physical layer design of the network, we focus on higher layer architectural considerations. In particular we discuss the joint design of the ele...

The MANET is a Mobile Ad-hoc Network. Topology control is an important issue in design of MANETs, due to its nature of the node-mobility. Many solutions are available for topology control in adhoc networks, centralized or distributed algorithms likei.e. GAF, LEACH, AFECA etc. The basic idea for topology maintenance is to elect the leader and all the moving node information is collected by it. T...

The simplicity of regular mesh topology Network on Chip (NoC) architecture leads to reductions in design time and manufacturing cost. A weakness of the regular shaped architecture is its inability to efficiently support cores of different sizes. A proposed way in literature to deal with this is to utilize the region concept, which helps to accommodate cores larger than the tile size in mesh top...

We propose a component based modelling and design strategy for the Neighborhood Discovery Component (NDC) and the Selector of Topology Information to Disseminate Component (STIDC) of proactive ad hoc routing protocols. The NDC design strategy focuses on limiting the detection time and removing time of network good and bad links respectively. The STIDC strategy makes sure that only stable links ...

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is an infrastructure less, low cost, dynamic topology, appplication oriented, multihoping network design with small, low power, sensing wireless distributed nods. WSN designing become more complex due to characterstics of deploying nodes, security, authentication and its operation scenario. This paper presents an analytical view on WSN architecture design issues, i...

Topology is a fundamental part of a network that governs connectivity between nodes, the amount of data flow and the efficiency of data flow between nodes. In traditional networks, due to physical limitations, topology remains static for the course of the network operation. Ubiquitous data networks (UDNs), alternatively, are more adaptive and can be configured for changes in their topology. Thi...

Topology discovery is one of the most critical tasks of Software-Defined Network (SDN) controllers. Current SDN controllers use the OpenFlow Discovery Protocol (OFDP) as the de-facto protocol for discovering the underlying network topology. In a previous work, we have shown the functional, performance and security limitations of OFDP. In this paper, we introduce and detail a novel protocol call...

An IP (Internet Protocol) over WDM network is expected to be an infrastructure for the next–generation Internet by directly carrying IP packets on the WDM–based network. Among several architectures for IP over WDM networks, one promising way is to overlay a logical topology consisting of lightpaths over the physical WDM network, so that IP packets are carried using the lightpaths. The conventio...
