Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Strategy for Signaling Overhead Reduction in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 ProtocolAdnan J. Jabir, S. Shamala, Z. ZuriatiProblem statement: The rapid growth of the Internet usage has been realized by the Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6). Concurrent to these technological advances is the communication overheads. Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) has been standardized to overcome the long handoff latency, packet loss and signaling overhead of MIPv6 and to exempt the mobile node from any involvement in the handoff process. Although … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 13 Feb 2012 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulticast-Supported Fast Handover for Proxy Mobile IPv6V. Berlin Hency, D. SridharanProxy Mobile IPv6 is a network-based mobility management protocol which is attractive as it does not require the participation of mobile nodes in mobility-related signaling. Unlike the host based approaches like Mobile IPv6, in PMIPv6 the Mobility Access Gateway (MAG) is responsible for tracking the movements of Mobile Node (MN) and to initiate the handover process. In this study, a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Apr 2013 · 6,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Updating Topic Specific Web Search System Using T-GraphAhmed PatelProblem statement: The main goal of a Web crawler is to collect documents that are relevant to a given topic in which the search engine specializes. These topic specific search systems typically take the whole document's content in predicting the importance of an unvisited link. But current research had proven that the document's content pointed to by an unvisited link … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,597 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel De-Oiling of Oil-WaterEmmanuel Ewa Ekeng, Jonah Chukwuemeka AgunwambaThe study anchors on developing a mechanistic model for oil-water separation. Over the years, researchers have been working on how to improve the quality of produced water effluent especially from oil and gas operations sent to the receiving waters. Despite the standard set for compliance by regulatory bodies like united nation agency, ministry, departments and other agencies both state and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
