Broadband Internet Access via Multi-Hop Wireless Mesh Networks: Design, Protocol and Experiments
2010
Published version of an article from the journal: Wireless Personal Communications. The original publication is available at Spingerlink. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11277-009-9907-9 While bandwidth for Internet access in urban areas is steadily increasing in recent years, many rural areas are still suffering from the effect of the digital divide. This paper presents a broadband Internet access paradigm developed in the context of the ADHOCSYS project, which was financed by the European Commission under the 6th Framework Program Information and Society Technologies, within the strategic objective of Broadband for All. Aiming at providing reliable Internet access in rural and mountainous regi…
A hybrid bio-inspired approach to solving the routing problem in mobile ad hoc networks
2018
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous system of mobile hosts (nodes) connected by a wireless link. However, the problem of designing routing protocols poses challenges to researchers due to the unpredictable and dynamic nature of ad hoc networks. Hence, bio-inspired algorithms are widely used to design adaptive routing strategies for MANETs. This paper proposes a routing protocol based on the hybridisation of ant colony optimisation (ACO) and 2-opt heuristic with the optimisation of ACO parameters. Given the vast scope of the parameters, a genetic algorithm is used to minimise the complexity of the problem. The implementation of the method is realised by MATLAB. To valid the resu…
Security Wireless Solution for Semantic Smart SCADA/DCS
2015
Journal spécialisé das industrie du gaz; International audience; We present the ability to detect and infiltrate semantic attacks a wireless radio network used in semantic (SCADA/DCS) systems, these attacks deny operators and automated systems the ability to safely and reliably monitor and control semantic sensors, semantic actuators, relays, and breakers. We presented in this work new security semantic wireless protocols as a secure communication support for these modern semantic wireless systems and a global security solution for interconnected (IT-SCADA) platforms.
The Influence of Friction on Design of the Type of Bracket and Its Relation to OHRQoL in Patients Who Use Multi-Bracket Appliances: A Randomized Clin…
2021
Background and objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of friction on design of the type of bracket, patients’ perception of pain and the impact on their oral health-related quality of life. Materials and Methods: A randomized clinical trial was carried out with 90 patients (62.2% women and 37.8% men) with three kinds of fixed multi-bracket appliances: Conventional (GC), fixed multi-bracket low friction (GS) and self-ligating (GA). The VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) was used to determine pain during the first seven days of treatment at different points in time. The patients were also given the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) questionnaire to analyse their oral heal…

Evaluating Bluetooth Performance as the Support for Context-Aware Applications
2005
We present an experiment relative to the use of the Bluetooth wireless technology to provide network support for context-aware applications. We describe an approach to provide network interconnection using a combination of wireless and wired network technologies. We also describe the steps taken to create a Bluetooth based context-aware application. We, finally, evaluate, using a small test-bed and simulation the overall performance of this technology when adopted in the area of context-aware and ubiquitous computing.
MAC learning
2016
Cognition as a way to deal with the challenges of future wireless networks has been largely considered by the recent literature, with a main focus on physical layer adaptability and dynamic spectrum access. In this demo, we show how a simple cognition mechanism can be also applied at the MAC layer, by exploiting the emerging paradigm of programmable wireless cards. The idea is using the formal definition of simple MAC protocol components and platform-independent representation of channel events gathered from the wireless node, for emulating the behavior of protocols which are not currently running on the network, learning about their expected performance, and dynamically reconfiguring the w…
Reaction-diffusion on dynamic inhibition areas: A bio-inspired link scheduling algorithm
2014
We present the Dynamic Inhibition Areas Reaction-Diffusion (DIA-RD) algorithm, a distributed medium access control protocol that globally maximizes the spatial reusability (number of simultaneous transmissions per unit area) of wireless sensor networks. This algorithm is able, in consequence, to minimize the number of time slots needed to schedule the set of demanded links, making it very efficient to solve the Shortest Link Schedule problem. DIA-RD combines accurate interference management, provided by the use of dynamic inhibition areas based on the physical interference model; and global intelligent behavior, provided by the bio-inspired technique known as Reaction-Diffusion. This techni…
Serial In-network Processing for Large Stationary Wireless Sensor Networks
2017
International audience; In wireless sensor networks, a serial processing algorithm browses nodes one by one and can perform different tasks such as: creating a schedule among nodes, querying or gathering data from nodes, supplying nodes with data, etc. Apart from the fact thatserial algorithms totally avoid collisions, numerous recent works have confirmed that these algorithms reduce communications andconsiderably save energy and time in large-dense networks. Yet, due to the path construction complexity, the proposed algorithmsare not optimal and their performances can be further enhanced. To do so, in the present paper, we propose a new serial processing algorithm that, in most of the case…
Energy Efficient Resource Allocation for Wireless Power Transfer Enabled Collaborative Mobile Clouds
2016
In order to fully enjoy high rate broadband multimedia services, prolonging the battery lifetime of user equipment is critical for mobile users, especially for smartphone users. In this paper, the problem of distributing cellular data via a wireless power transfer enabled collaborative mobile cloud (WeCMC) in an energy efficient manner is investigated. WeCMC is formed by a group of users who have both functionalities of information decoding and energy harvesting, and are interested for cooperating in downloading content from the operators. Through device-to-device communications, the users inside WeCMC are able to cooperate during the downloading procedure and offload data from the base sta…
