Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterference Mitigation in IEEE 802.15.4-A Cluster Based Scheduling ApproachG. M. Tamilselvan, A. ShanmugamProblem statement: In universal networking environments; two or more heterogeneous communication systems coexisting in a single place. Especially, Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) based on IEEE 802.11b specifications and Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) based on IEEE 802.15.4 specifications need to coexist in the same Industrial, Science and Medial (ISM) band. If the WPAN communication coverage is expanded using a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2011 · 7,388 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Ad Hoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol in HetMAN ArchitectureZahian Ismail, Rosilah HassanProblem statement: Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), a type of network with special characteristics, needs a special mechanism to bear with its ad hoc behavior. Approach: The important issue in MANET is routing protocol. Routing protocol is a standard used to determine the route path taken during the transmission of data. Results: In this study we focused on the Ad … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 6,332 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCohesive Token Passing Algorithm Utilizing Software AgentsA. Fua’ad Abdulrazzak, Shamala SubramaniamProblem statement: The communications domain has utilized the implementation of protocols for a wide spectrum of applications. This encompasses Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. MAC protocols have been extensively researched from several angles. This encompasses the implementation in the area of Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks and Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANET). The relevance of intelligence in sustaining the pre-requisites for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,111 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Calculating Activity Slack in Stochastic Project NetworksGary MitchellProblem statement: Identifying critical tasks in a project network is easily done when task times are deterministic, but doing so under stochastic task times is problematic. The few methods that have been proposed contain serious drawbacks which lead to identifying critical tasks incorrectly, leaving project managers without the means to (1) identify and rank the most probable sources of project … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnequally Error Protected Wireless Data Transmission Using Channel State Information and Adaptive EncodersYaseen H. Tahir, Chee Kyun Ng, N. K. Noordin et al.Problem statement: Higher data transmission rate with Quality of Services (QoS) guarantee is an important objective for wireless broadband communication systems. Unlike other communication system, real-time transmission requires high data rate and good error performance to ensure good quality of service. This study describes the design problem of real-time wireless data transmission which provides higher achievable data rate with Unequal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of Stable Weight-Based on Demand Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc NetworkOon Chong Hsi, Azizol AbdullahProblem statement: A MANET is an autonomous collection of mobile users that communicate over relatively bandwidth constrained wireless links. Since the nodes are mobile, the network topology may change rapidly and unpredictably over time. Approach: A Stable Weight-based On demand Routing Protocol (SWORP) that uses the weight-based route strategy to select a stable route was created by Wang. But SWORP … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Broadcast Overhead Using Clustering Based Broadcast Mechanism in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworkN. Karthikeyan, V. Palanisamy, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Network wide broadcasting is an important function in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET), which attempts to deliver packets from a source node to all other nodes in the network. Broadcasting is often very useful for route discovery, naming, addressing and helping multicast operations in all kinds of networks. For designing broadcast protocols for ad hoc networks, one of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Discrete Event Modeling and Simulation of Wave Division Multiplexing Unidirectional Slotted Ring Metropolitan Area NetworkH. A. Fua’ad, S. Shamala, M. Othman, Z. ZuriatiProblem statement: The lack of uniformity in the choice of simulation platforms for optical WDM networks stands behind the difficulty of developing a common simulation environment. Correlating WDM unidirectional slotted ring network to Discrete Event Simulation (DES) encompassing event definition, time advancing mechanism and scheduler has yet to be developed. Approach: The study focused on the proposed and the development … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytic Performability Model of Vertical Handoff in Wireless NetworksGowrishankar, G. N. Sekhar, P. S. SatyanarayanaProblem statement: The next generation wireless systems should be designed to support heterogeneous traffic with seamless mobility. A single network alone cannot cope up with such heterogeneous requirements. Hence it is desirable to interoperate between diverse and complementary Radio Access Technologies (RATs). In such system, user will switch between different Radio Access Technologies (RATs) to satisfy the User/application requirement and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Approach to Modeling Software Safety in Safety-Critical SystemsBen Swarup Medikonda, Seetha Ramaiah PanchumarthySoftware for safety-critical systems has to deal with the hazards identified by safety analysis in order to make the system safe, risk-free and fail-safe. Software safety is a composite of many factors. Problem statement: Existing software quality models like McCall’s and Boehm’s and ISO 9126 were inadequate in addressing the software safety issues of real time safety-critical embedded systems.
