This paper presents a comprehensive survey of routing techniques in wireless sensor networks (WSN) and studies the advantages and performance issues of routing techniques with tradeoffs between energy and communication overhead savings. Based on the underlying network structure WSN routing algorithms can be categorized in flat, hierarchical, and location-based routing algorithms.

Location information in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provides efficiency to uni-cast and multi-cast algorithms. This paper proposes a new location update algorithm called PLU. The essence of PLU lies in the integration of location prediction and one-hop broadcasting of location update packets. The full PLU algorithm and its associated data structure are described in the paper. The simulation...

We propose Adaptive Geo-Source Multicast Routing (AGSMR) for WSNs. It addresses the scalability issue of previous location based stateless multicast protocols in WSNs. AGSMR is a novel stateless multicast protocol that optimizes the location-based and source-based multicast approaches in various ways. First, it saves the cost of a tree building by using receiver’s geographic location informatio...

Many simulation models contain one or more transport systems where some type of vehicle, perhaps an AGV, a fork truck, a shuttle, or a human being, travel along predefined paths. Locations along the paths may specify where loads carried by the vehicle transfer to or from it, where some activity takes place requiring the vehicle’s presence, or where vehicle routing logic executes. This paper foc...

Centralizing and using proper transportation facilities cut down costs and traffic. Hub facilities concentrate on flows to cause economic advantage of scale and multimodal transportation helps use the advantage of another transporter. A distinctive feature of this paper is proposing a new mathematical formulation for a three-stage p-hub location routing problem with simultaneous pick-ups and de...

Among structured Peer-to-Peer systems, Chord has a general popularity due to its salient features like simplicity, high scalability, small path length with respect to network size, and flexibility on node join and departure. However, Chord doesn’t take into account the topology of underlying physical network when a new node is being added to the system, thus resulting in high routing late...

This paper proposes an efficient network architecture to improve energy consumption in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The proposed architecture uses a mobile data collector to a partitioned network. The mobile data collector moves to center of each logical partition after each decision period. The mobile data collector must declare its new location by packet broadcasting to all sensor node...

-Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network with no infrastructure, used in vital places such as battle fields, disaster areas, remote areas etc. This emergency aiding network is formed ondemand by mobile nodes to accomplish communication and information sharing activities. Since there is no centralized control to oversee the ongoing activities, each node operates with the responsibili...

Sudhir Goswami Mr. Chetan Agrawal Mr.Anurag Jain ([email protected]) Abstract— A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile hosts that move in different location and mobility without the need to maintain connectivity with existing network infrastructure. If two mobile nodes are in transmission range with each other then they can communicate with each other directly otherwise t...
