Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fuzzy Based Mechanism For Allocation of Grid ResourcesM. Poonguzhali, S. ShanmugavelOne of the main challenges in Grid computing is efficient allocation of resources (CPU-hours, network bandwidth) to the tasks submitted by users. In our previous work a technique to allocate resources in a grid environment using predicted data has been proposed. We propose utilization of the predicted data the resources were classified into three types; they are permanent resources, semi-permanent … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 23 May 2013 · 6,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtility Based Scheduling and Call Admission Control for Long Term Evolution NetworksJ. Vijay Franklin, K. ParamasivamIn this study, we propose to design a call admission control algorithm which schedules the channels for Real time and non-real time users. In Long Term Evolution (LTE) 3GPP Networks, several works were done on call admission control but these works rarely considers scheduling of resources to the real time and non-real time users.When the system meets traffic oriented performance … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 13 Dec 2012 · 6,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrust Based Node Replication Attack Detection Protocol for Wireless Sensor NetworksV. Manjula, C. ChellappanThe harmful attack against Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is Node Replication attack, where one or more node(s) illegitimately claims an identity, are also called clone attack due to identity theft. The Node replication attack can be exceedingly injurious to many important functions of the sensor network such as routing, resource allocation, misbehavior detection, This study proposes a method Randomized and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 5 Nov 2012 · 6,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Scheduling for Cloud Reliability using Transportation ProblemS. K. Senthil Kumar, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: Cloud is purely a dynamic environment and the existing task scheduling algorithms are mostly static and considered various parameters like time, cost, make span, speed, scalability, throughput, resource utilization, scheduling success rate and so on. Available scheduling algorithms are mostly heuristic in nature and more complex, time consuming and does not consider reliability and availability of the cloud … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 23 Aug 2012 · 8,332 accessesView PDFCite
