A wireless ad hoc network typically refers to any set of wireless networks where all devices have equal status on a network and are free to associate with any other wireless ad hoc network devices in their range. As the nature of these networks, they commonly do not have external power supplies, and each node has a limited internal power source. In this paper, we put forward a new routing proto...

Abstract: In the current research, a smart grid is considered as a network of distributed interacting nodes represented by renewable energy sources, storage and loads. The source nodes become active or inactive in a stochastic manner due to the intermittent nature of natural resources such as wind and solar irradiance. Prediction and stochastic modelling of electrical energy flow is a critical ...

in this paper an optimal controller is proposed for a self-balancing electrical vehicle called segway pt. this vehicle has one platform and two wheels on the sides and the rider stands on the platform. a handlebar, as a navigator, is attached to the body of segway, with which the rider controls the vehicle. since segway uses electrical energy produced by batteries, resource consumption manageme...

Energy efficiency is still a challenging issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Balancing nodes’ activities and duty cycling are efficient ways that could enhance WSN’s performances. In this paper the authors introduce a new asynchronous power saving mechanism that provides an adaptive duty cycle and a minimum overhead to achieve load balancing and energy saving. This mechanism relies on two...

This paper proposed beta trust model based on energy load balancing combines the recent achievements of the trust models in distributed networks, together with the characteristics of wireless sensor networks. The inter-node trust relation is established after an overall evaluation of node trust value based on the monitor results of the node packets forwarding behavior conducted by inter-node co...

Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a very challenging task due to the large number of nodes, their mobility and lack of proper infrastructure. Since the sensors are battery powered devices, energy efficiency is considered as one of the main factors in designing routing protocols in WSNs. Most of energy-aware routing protocols are mere energy savers that attempt to decrease the energy...

While load balancing techniques have been designed and evaluated for efficient resource utilization in cloud computing, achieving energy efficiency as a consequence of load balancing often does not get direct attention. In this paper we describe two load balancing algorithms that focus on balancing workload distribution among physical hosts in the cloud infrastructure. The test results presente...
