In this paper a novel adaptive load balancing routing algorithm in Ad hoc networks based on a gossiping mechanism is proposed. Unlike previously published algorithms, this algorithm adjusts the forwarding probability of the routing messages adaptively, according to the load status and the distribution of the nodes in the phase of route discovery. The simulation results show that the algorithm s...

with the growth in customers’ demand diversification, mixed-model u-lines (mmul) have acquired increasing importance in the area of assembly systems. there are generally two different approaches in the literature for balancing such systems. some researchers believe that since the types of models can be very diverse, a balancing approach without simultaneously sequencing of models will not yield...

Today’s Internet users and applications are placing increased demands on Internet service providers (ISPs) to deliver fine-grained, flexible route control. To assist network operators in addressing this challenge, we present the Intelligent Route Service Control Point (IRSCP), a route control architecture that allows a network operator to flexibly control routing between the traffic ingresses a...

When shortest path routing is employed in large scale multi-hop wireless networks such as sensor networks, nodes located near the center of the network have to perform disproportionate amount of relaying for others. Nodes in such traffic hot-spots deplete their batteries faster than others due to their high relay load. These traffic hot-spots also adversely affect the network capacity due to in...

Application Routing Load Balancing (ARLB) is the novel load balancing mode that combines QoS routing and load balancing in per application for support QoS for real-time application based on wired network. Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP) is a recent hybrid proactive/reactive routing approach in an attempt to achieve scalability of ad-hoc network. This routing approach has the potential to be efficie...

Bonald et al. have studied insensitivity in data networks assuming a fixed route for each flow class. If capacity allocation and routing are balanced and the capacity of a given class is shared equally between the flows, the network state distribution and flow level performance are insensitive to any detailed traffic characteristics except the traffic loads. In this paper, we consider optimal i...

The main goal of this paper is to develop a new generalization of balancing and Lucas-balancing sequences namely balancing and Lucas-balancing $p$-numbers and derive several identities related to them. Some combinatorial forms of these numbers are also presented.

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a wireless network in which nodes, in the absence of fixed access points, communicate via single or multi-hop paths. Each node in a MANET should thus be able to perform necessary routing functions, and a MANET routing protocol should be able to adapt fast and effectively to sudden changes in network layout. Multipath routing allows the establishment of multipl...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes where each node is free to move about arbitrarily. The Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is one of the well-known and efficient on-demand MANET protocols. AODV currently does not support Quality of Service (QoS) and has no load balancing mechanism. We propose some enhancements to the AODV protocol to provide ...
