Smart Monitoring for Semantic Wireless (SCADA/DCS) Systems with Semantic SNMP Protocol.
2015
International audience; n this paper we propose a new implementation of SNMP protocol through (WS) and SOAP protocol, for wireless semantic (SCADA/DCS) systems and (IT-SCADA) platform monitoring. (WS) and SOAP may run on top of secure transport services implemented through protocols like HTTPS combined with industrial protocols as (DNP3, SOAP, ISM BAND, and ZIGBEE).We chose ZIGBBE wireless protocol for implementing our semantic security (IT-SCADA) management platform with semantic SNMP protocol via WS. To detect and infiltrate wireless radio network and semantic attacks, the use of (WS) gateways is needed to include SNMP devices into (WS) based management architecture. The evaluation shows …
Modeling a non-stationary bots’ arrival process at an e-commerce Web site
2017
Abstract The paper concerns the issue of modeling and generating a representative Web workload for Web server performance evaluation through simulation experiments. Web traffic analysis has been done from two decades, usually based on Web server log data. However, while the character of the overall Web traffic has been extensively studied and modeled, relatively few studies have been devoted to the analysis of Web traffic generated by Internet robots (Web bots). Moreover, the overwhelming majority of studies concern the traffic on non e-commerce websites. In this paper we address the problem of modeling a realistic arrival process of bots’ requests on an e-commerce Web server. Based on real…
Energy-aware design for wireless mesh networks
2014
International audience; Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are the next step in the development of the wireless architecture, delivering wireless services for a large variety of users in personal, local, campus, and metropolitan areas. Energy efficiency solutions are becoming more vital for both local access networks and wireless networks and Green IT has attracted a considerable attention. However, the application of green network for wireless mesh networks has seldom been described in the literature. However, WMNs infrastructure devices are always active. Thus, during lower traffic periods the energy consumption is the same as in busy hours, while it would be possible to save a large amount of…
An Efficient Retransmission Strategy for Data Gathering in Wireless Sensor Networks
2006
This paper introduces a new strategy for data gathering in wireless sensor networks that takes into account the need for both energy saving and for a reasonable tradeoff between robustness and efficiency. The proposed algorithm implements an efficient strategy for retransmission of lost packets by discovering alternative routes and making clever use of multiple paths when necessary; in order to do that we use duplicate and order insensitive aggregation functions, and by taking advantage of some intrinsic characteristics of the wireless sensor networks, we exploit implicit acknowledgment of reception and smart caching of the data.
A Java-based Wrapper for Wireless Communications
2008
The increasing number of new applications for mobile devices in pervasive environments, do not cope with changes in the wireless communications. Developers of such applications have to deal with problems arising from the available wireless connections in the given environment. A middleware is a solution that allows to overcome some of these problems. It provides to the applications a set of functions that facilitate their development. In this paper we present a Java-based communication wrapper, called SmartTraffic, which allows programmers to seamlessly use TCP or UDP protocols over Bluetooth or any IP-based wireless network. Developers can use SmartTraffic within their Java applications, t…
A New Neighbour Selection Strategy for Group-Based Wireless Sensor Networks
2008
In any type of networks a neighbour selection method is needed to form the topology of the network and to know which node the information has to be sent to reach a destination. Nowadays, several selection strategies exist that are based on different aspects and mainly designed to work in common networks. In this paper we will show our study about those different methods and, then we show the development of a suitable neighbour selection strategy for group-based wireless sensor networks (WSN) that is based on a capacity parameter defined by us and the new neighbour distance. We also present the proposal architecture for WSNs and the protocol when a new node joins a group and has to select it…
Energy efficient and distributed resource allocation for wireless powered OFDMA multi-cell networks
2017
In this paper, we investigate the energy efficient resource allocation problem for the wireless powered OFDMA multi-cell networks. In the considered system, the users who have data to transmit in the uplink can only be empowered by the wireless power obtained from multiple base stations (BSs) with a large scale of multiple antennas in the downlink. A time division protocol is considered to divide the time of wireless power transfer (WPT) in the downlink and wireless information transfer (WIT) in the uplink into separate time slot. With the objective to improve the energy efficiency (EE) of the system, we propose the antenna selection, time allocation, subcarrier and power allocation schemes…
Achieving Fair Bandwidth Distribution in WiFi Networks: A Game Theoretical Approach
2011
International audience; Achieving fair bandwidth distribution among uplink and downlink ows in IEEE 802.11 infrastructure networks is a complex issue, due to the well-known features of the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) which regulates the access to the shared medium. Indeed, the dynamic adaptation of the contention windows causes phenomena of short-term unfairness, while the use of homogeneous contention parameters among the contending nodes makes the aggregated downlink bandwidth equal to the uplink bandwidth of a single node. We propose a dynamic tuning of the contention parameters used by the nodes, based on simple network monitoring functionalities and rational strategies. Spe…
Supporting scalable video transmission in MANETs through distributed admission control mechanisms
2009
Emerging multimedia applications over mobile devices are becoming very popular, especially over infrastructure wireless networks such as cellular and WLANs. However, providing this kind of services over infrastructureless networks like ad hoc networks presents many additional problems. One of these problems is how to share resources fairly among the users involved. In this article we propose a QoS framework supporting scalable video streaming in mobile ad hoc networks based on distributed admission control and video traffic awareness. Our framework promotes fairness between video flows in terms of resource consumption. It also guarantees a significant reduction of the idle times experienced…
Ensuring the QoS requirements in 802.16 scheduling
2006
IEEE 802.16 standard defines the wireless broadband access network technology called WiMAX. WiMAX introduces several interesting advantages, and one of them is the support for QoS at the MAC level. For these purposes, the base station must allocate slots based on some algorithm. We propose a simple, yet efficient, solution for the WiMAX base station that is capable of allocating slots based on the QoS requirements, bandwidth request sizes, and the WiMAX network parameters. To test the proposed solution, we have implemented the WiMAX MAC layer in the NS-2 simulator. Several simulation scenarios are presented that demonstrate how the scheduling solution allocates resources in various cases. S…
