Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) which have sufficient state information include trajectory and contact information, to protect routing efficiency. However, state information is dynamic and hard to obtain without a global and/or long-term collection process. To deal with these problems, the internal social features of each node are introduced in the network to perform the routing process. This typ...

-------------------------------------------------------------Abstract----------------------------------------------------------------Most ad hoc mobile devices today operate on batteries. Hence, power consumption becomes an important issue. To maximize the lifetime of mobile ad hoc networks, the power consumption rate of each node must be evenly distributed, and the overall transmission power f...

Energy efficiency and reliability are widely understood to be one of the dominant considerations for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs). In this paper, in order to maintain energy efficiency and reliability in a UWSN, Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (COA) is adopted that is a combination of three techniques of geo-routing, multi-path routing, and Duty-Cycle mechanism. In the proposed alg...

To solve Spectrum decision and route selection problem which have vital role in cognitive radio ad hoc network (CRAHN), many researchers developed different methodology how efficiently select the proper route between source and destination. In this paper it has been analysed the efficiency and routing load of on-demand routing protocol based on ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing pr...

A novel efficiency and effectiveness Internet multicast routing protocol is presented with short delay, high throughput, resource utilization and scalability for a single multicast group g. The protocol has two features: (1) Multiple Shared-Trees (MST) are configured to provide efficient, dynamic and quality multicast routing; (2) Anycasting approach is used to form the tree roots into an anyca...

In wireless mesh networks, the routing of packets from source to destination is crucial and challenging task. The wireless mesh networks find applications in disaster management, video on demand, intelligent, health care systems, etc. Various routing protocols exist in literature to improve the efficiency of the wireless mesh networks calculated in terms of reliability, cost, throughput, error ...

Wireless sensor Networks (WSN) require secure aggregated routing of sensor data transmitted from source node to the sink node for most of its applications. Several existing routing protocols are explained in this paper with aggregation for WSN's are explored. The main objective of this paper provides the importance of secure aggregated routing algorithms for WSN to collect process and aggr...

Network throughput and energy conservation are two conflicting important performance metrics for wireless sensor networks. Since these two objectives are in conflict with each other, it is difficult to achieve them simultaneously. In this paper, a joint duty cycle scheduling and energy aware routing approach is proposed based on evolutionary game theory which is called DREG. Making a trade-off ...

Wireless Multi-hop Networks (WMhNs) are supposed to be the forerunner among the currently existing communication technologies. They provide users with flexible structures, feasible cost, convenience, ever growing bandwidths and innovative solutions. The increasing demands of the users provide a challenge to improve the quality of WMhNs. The performance of WMhNs depends upon the efficiency of th...

Many routing protocols have been proposed for wireless sensor networks. These routing protocols are almost always based on energy efficiency. However, recent advances in complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) cameras and small microphones have led to the development of Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSN) as a class of wireless sensor networks which pose additional challenges.
