-Software complexity has been a topic of interest for software engineers for the last three decades. Various definitions of software complexity have appeared in literature from time to time. This has resulted in the development of software metrics by different investigators. With the new developments in the area of computer communication and sensor networks, software complexity metrics need an ...

Due to the paramount importance of (wireless) communication systems and computer networks, in the last decade both resource allocation (RA) and anomaly detection (AD) problems addressed herein have been intensively studied and numerous solutions have been proposed in the specialized literature [1]. The RA specially in wireless multiple access networks and the AD in computer networks are problem...

As more and more people use computers for communicating, the behavioral and societal effects of computer-mediated communication are becoming critical research topics. This article describes some of the issues raised by electronic communication, illustrates one empirical approach for investigating its social psychological effects, and discusses why social psychological research might contribute ...

Faults in computer networks may result in millions of dollars in cost. Faults in a network need to be localized and repaired to keep the health of the network. Fault management systems are used to keep today’s complex networks running without significant cost, either by using active techniques or passive techniques. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on imperialist competitive alg...

In this paper, the stability analysis and control design of heterogeneous traffic flow is considered. It is assumed that the traffic flow consists of infinite number of cooperative non-identical vehicular platoons. Two different networks are investigated in stability analysis of heterogeneous traffic flow: 1) inter-platoon network which deals with the communication topology of lead vehicles and...
