—Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol has been widely applied in Wireless Ad-hoc Sensor Networks (WASN). Link breaks often occur in WASN due to the mobility of nodes or other reasons. Only after a link break detected, the route repair scheme in AODV will be initiated to keep the connectivity of network. In this paper, we propose an enhanced Preemptive Local Repairing Mechan...

In this study, we propose a control chart for monitoring two-stage processes whose quality characteristic to be monitored in the second stage follows a binomial distribution. The proposed control chart is based on the deviance residual which essentially the generalized log-likelihood ratio statistic is obtained from the generalized linear model. To establish the relationship between the firstan...

as wireless networks with high data rate get widely deployed, improving the performance of tcp over these networks plays vital role. wireless link losses have dramatic adverse impact on tcp performance due to the difficulty in distinguishing the congestion losses from wireless link losses. we first, studied the various existing bandwidth estimation algorithms over the wireless networks. in this...

Background: The link prediction issue is one of the most widely used problems in complex network analysis. Link prediction requires knowing the background of previous link connections and combining them with available information. The link prediction local approaches with node structure objectives are fast in case of speed but are not accurate enough. On the other hand, the global link predicti...

Kinesin-14 family proteins are minus-end directed motors that cross-link microtubules and play key roles during spindle assembly. We showed previously that the Xenopus Kinesin-14 XCTK2 is regulated by Ran via the association of a bipartite NLS in the tail of XCTK2 with importin alpha/beta, which regulates its ability to cross-link microtubules during spindle formation. Here we show that mutatio...

Predicting linkages among data objects is a fundamental data mining task in various application domains, including recommender systems, information retrieval, automatic Web hyperlink generation, record linkage, and communication surveillance. In many contexts link prediction is entirely based on the linkage information itself (a prominent example is the collaborative filtering recommendation). ...

Abstract— We consider wireless networks with interference constraints. The network consists of a set of links and a set of users who generate packets that traverse these links. Each user is associated with a route consisting of a sequence of links. The links are subject to the usual interference constraints: (i) if link l interferes with link k, then link k also interferes with link l, and (ii)...

| We propose a new framework for the link assignment (i.e., topological design) problem that arises from the use of inter-satellite links (ISL's) in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks. In the proposed framework, we model a LEO satellite network as a Finite State Automaton (FSA) where each state corresponds to an equal-length interval in the system period of the LEO satellite network. This...

Thermodynamic length is a path function that generalizes the notion of length to the surface of thermodynamic states. Here, we show how to measure thermodynamic length in far-from-equilibrium experiments using the work fluctuation relations. For these microscopic systems, it proves necessary to define the thermodynamic length in terms of the Fisher information. Consequently, the thermodynamic l...
