Digital information receiver based on stochastic resonance
2003
International audience; An electronic receiver based on stochastic resonance is presented to rescue subthreshold modulated digital data. In real experiment, it is shown that a complete data restoration is achieved for both uniform and Gaussian white noise.
On the Online Classification of Data Streams Using Weak Estimators
2016
In this paper, we propose a novel online classifier for complex data streams which are generated from non-stationary stochastic properties. Instead of using a single training model and counters to keep important data statistics, the introduced online classifier scheme provides a real-time self-adjusting learning model. The learning model utilizes the multiplication-based update algorithm of the Stochastic Learning Weak Estimator (SLWE) at each time instant as a new labeled instance arrives. In this way, the data statistics are updated every time a new element is inserted, without requiring that we have to rebuild its model when changes occur in the data distributions. Finally, and most impo…
A Guaranteed performance of a green data center based on the contribution of vital nodes
2016
International audience; In order to satisfy the need for the critical computing resources, many data center architectures proposed to house a huge number of network devices. These devices are used to achieve the highest performance in case of full utilization of the network. However, the peak capacity of the network is rarely reached. Consequently, many devices are set into idle state and cause a huge energy waste leading to a non-proportionality between the network load and the energy consumed. In this paper, we propose a power-aware routing algorithm that saves energy consumption with a negligible trade-off on the performance of the network. The idea is to keep active only the source and …
Achieving energy efficiency in data centers with a performance-guaranteed power aware routing
2017
Nowadays, data centers are designed to offer the highest performance in case of high traffic load and peak utilisation of the network. However, in a realistic data center environment, the peak capacity of the network is rarely reached and the average utilisation of devices varies between 5% and 25% which results into a huge loss of energy since most of the time links and servers are idle or under-utilized. The high impact of this wasted power on environmental effects, energy needs and electricity costs raised the concerns to seek for an efficient solution to make data centers more power effective while keeping the desired quality of service. In this paper, we propose a power-aware routing a…
Population Monte Carlo Schemes with Reduced Path Degeneracy
2017
Population Monte Carlo (PMC) algorithms are versatile adaptive tools for approximating moments of complicated distributions. A common problem of PMC algorithms is the so-called path degeneracy; the diversity in the adaptation is endangered due to the resampling step. In this paper we focus on novel population Monte Carlo schemes that present enhanced diversity, compared to the standard approach, while keeping the same implementation structure (sample generation, weighting and resampling). The new schemes combine different weighting and resampling strategies to reduce the path degeneracy and achieve a higher performance at the cost of additional low computational complexity cost. Computer si…
A Random Trajectory Approach for the Development of Nonstationary Channel Models Capturing Different Scales of Fading
2017
This paper introduces a new approach to developing stochastic nonstationary channel models, the randomness of which originates from a random trajectory of the mobile station (MS) rather than from the scattering area. The new approach is employed by utilizing a random trajectory model based on the primitives of Brownian fields (BFs), whereas the position of scatterers can be generated from an arbitrarily 2-D distribution function. The employed trajectory model generates random paths along which the MS travels from a given starting point to a fixed predefined destination point. To capture the path loss, the gain of each multipath component is modeled by a negative power law applied to the tra…
Throughput and delay analysis of HARQ with code combining over double Rayleigh fading channels
2018
This paper proposes the use of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) with code combining (HARQ-CC) to offer reliable communications over double Rayleigh channels. The double Rayleigh fading channel is of particular interest to vehicleto-vehicle communication systems as well as amplify-and-forward relaying and keyhole channels. This paper studies the performance of HARQ-CC over double Rayleigh channels from an information theoretic perspective. Analytical approximations are derived for the ϵ-outage capacity, the average number of transmissions, and the throughput of HARQ-CC. Moreover, we evaluate the delay experienced by Poisson-arriving packets for HARQ-CC. We provide analytical expression…
Modeling and Performance Analysis of Channel Assembling in Multichannel Cognitive Radio Networks With Spectrum Adaptation
2012
[EN] To accommodate spectrum access in multichannel cognitive radio networks (CRNs), the channel-assembling technique, which combines several channels together as one channel, has been proposed in many medium access control (MAC) protocols. However, analytical models for CRNs enabled with this technique have not been thoroughly investigated. In this paper, two representative channel-assembling strategies that consider spectrum adaptation and heterogeneous traffic are proposed, and the performance of these strategies is evaluated based on the proposed continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) models. Moreover, approximations of these models in the quasistationary regime are analyzed, and closed-fo…
Adaptive Service Offloading for Revenue Maximization in Mobile Edge Computing With Delay-Constraint
2019
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is an important and effective platform to offload the computational services of modern mobile applications, and has gained tremendous attention from various research communities. For delay and resource constrained mobile devices, the important issues include: 1) minimization of the service latency; 2) optimal revenue maximization; 3) high quality-of-service (QoS) requirement to offload the computational service offloading. To address the above issues, an adaptive service offloading scheme is designed to provide the maximum revenue and service utilization to MEC. Unlike most of the existing works, we consider both the delay-tolerant and delay-constraint services i…
Evaluation of Structural and Temporal Properties of Ego Networks for Data Availability in DOSNs
2017
The large diffusion of Online Social Networks (OSNs) has influenced the way people interact with each other. OSNs present several drawbacks, one of the most important is the problem of privacy disclosures. Distributed Online Social Networks (DOSNs) have been proposed as a valid alternative solution to solve this problem. DOSNs are Online Social Networks implemented on a distributed platform, such as a P2P system or a mobile network. However, the decentralization of the control presents several challenges, one of the main ones is guaranteeing data availability without relying on a central server. To this aim, users’ data allocation strategies have to be defined and this requires the knowledg…
