Parallel and Distributed Resource Allocation With Minimum Traffic Disruption for Network Virtualization
2017
Wireless network virtualization has been advocated as one of the most promising technologies to provide multifarious services and applications for the future Internet by enabling multiple isolated virtual wireless networks to coexist and share the same physical wireless resources. Based on the multiple concurrent virtual wireless networks running on the shared physical substrate, service providers can independently manage and deploy different end-users services. This paper proposes a new formulation for bandwidth allocation and routing problem for multiple virtual wireless networks that operate on top of a single substrate network to minimize the operation cost of the substrate network. We …
Optical wireless communication systems
2017
Abstract The emerging field of optical wireless communication (OWC) systems is seen as potential complementary technology to the radio frequency wireless communications in certain applications. It is deemed as a possible technology in the future 5th Generation communication networks to address the spectrum congestion and improve the system’s capacity. More research and developments in OWC is still needed in order for it to be adopted in current and future communication systems. This special issue brings together research papers on OWC covering free space optic, visible communications and ultraviolet communications.
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…
Security in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks – A Survey
2011
Published version of an article in the journal: Journal of Communications. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.4304/jcm.6.2.128-142. OA Thanks to recent advances in robotics, sensors and wireless communications, it is feasible to develop a variety of new architectures for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSNs) that play an important role in various applications such as battlefield surveillance, harbor monitoring, etc. However, due to the dynamic of mobile network topology in MWSNs, many new security challenges have emerged. In this article, we give a survey on the state of the art technologies in security aspects of MWSNs. We review existing work that provides securi…
Multi-robot Interacting Through Wireless Sensor Networks
2007
This paper addresses the issue of coordinating the operations of multiple robots in an indoor environment. The framework presented here uses a composite networking architecture, in which a hybrid wireless network, composed by commonly available WiFi devices, and the more recently developed wireless sensor networks. Such architecture grants robots to enhance their perceptive capabilities and to exchange information so as to coordinate actions in order to achieve a global common goal. The proposed framework is described with reference to an experimental setup that extends a previously developed robotic tour guide application in the context of a multi-robot application.
A survey of wireless data center networks
2015
Data centers are becoming more and more popular for a wide variety of applications. However, the efficiency of data centers are restricted by many issues like cabling and maintenance problems in addition to performance problems like oversubscription. Wireless technology was proposed as it has the capability and the flexibility to offer feasible approaches to solve some of these problems. In this paper, we conduct a deep investigation about wireless data center networks, describe some works that enhance the performance of the network, then give some remarks and critiques. 2015 IEEE.

A Wireless Mesh Network-based System for Hotspots Deployment and Management
2007
In recent years Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) or hotspots, as they are commonly known, have emerged as a promising networking platform to extend network connectivity in public venues, providing local coverage for Internet applications on the move in urban areas and rural environments. Wireless hotspots using 802.11-based technology have popped up in corporate offices, coffeehouses, airports, restaurants and bookstores worldwide. For all their utility and ease of use the 802.11 wireless protocol, known as WiFi, has become the mobile connectivity mechanism of choice for business people, travelers, villagers, and everyone else. Unfortunately, even with the protocol's ease of use and its…
On building an infrastructure for mobile and wireless systems
2002
Over the last few years, there have been at least two dramatic changes in the way computers are used. The first has its origin in the fact that computers have become more and more connected to each other. The second was triggered by the increasing miniaturization and affordability of hardware components and power supplies, together with the development of wireless communication paths. These two trends combined have allowed the development of powerful, yet comparatively low-priced, portable computers. In spite of these changes, little attention has been given to reaching a common consensus and to the development of a strong infrastructure in this area.
