The majority of the existing ad hoc wireless network routing protocols has a tendency to use the shortest single path from the source to the destination. However, in constantly changing topologies such as those in mobile ad hoc networks, the shortest single path is quite unstable for reachability and also for traffic load equilibrium. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme, called Applicative...

In this paper, we consider the optimal converter placement problem for a given number of converters on a path topology in all-optical WDM networks. The placement of converters on a path divides the path into segments. A segment is deened as a set of links between two consecutive converters on a path. We rst introduce and prove that optimal placement considering end-to-end performance is obtaine...

A nonlinear wheel loader model with nine states and four control inputs is utilized to study the fuel and time efficient optimal control of wheel loader operation in the short loading cycle. The wheel loader model consists of lifting, steering and powertrain subsystems where the nonlinearity originates from the torque converter in the drivetrain. The short loading cycle, from loading point to a...

Fast load balancing is of the highest importance to utilize the resources effectively and improve the performance of the Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) enabled Internet Protocol (IP) networks. Load balancing splits a part of traffic called splitting ratio from the maximum loaded path in to minimum loaded path. One very strong constrain in balancing the load is the tradeoff between the de...

Data center networks are designed for satisfying the data transmission demand of densely interconnected hosts in the data center. The network topology and routing mechanism can affect the performance and latency significantly. Nowadays, the fat-tree network is one of the most widely used topologies for data center networks. Network engineers also adopt load balancing methods in the design of ro...

This paper presents a scalability and load balancing study of the All-Path protocols, a family of distributed switching protocols based on path exploration. ARP-Path is the main protocol and it explores every possible path reaching from source to destination by using ARP messages, selecting the lowest latency path. Flow-Path and Bridge-Path are respectively the flow-based and bridge-based versi...

in this paper, a new approach to modify cable tension measuring mechanism is described; furthermore, the constructed boards which amplify load cell output are introduced. this approach has some advantages including of providing feedback for motors, evaluating the robot’s ultimate load carrying capacity, improving the motor control system and estimating the vibrating deflections of the end effec...
