Quasi-hierarchical evolution algorithm for flow assignment in survivable connection-oriented networks

Michal Przewozniczek, Krzysztof Walkowiak (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The main objective of this paper is to develop an effective evolutionary algorithm (EA) for the path-assignment problem in survivable connection-oriented networks. We assume a single-link failure scenario, which is the most common and frequently reported failure event. Since the network flow is modeled as a non-bifurcated multicommodity flow, the discussed optimization problem is NP-complete. Thus, we develop an effective heuristic algorithm based on an evolutionary algorithm. The main...

Ant algorithm for flow assignment in connection-oriented networks

Krzysztof Walkowiak (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This work introduces ANB (bf Ant Algorithm for bf Non-bf Bifurcated Flows), a novel approach to capacitated static optimization of flows in connection-oriented computer networks. The problem considered arises naturally from several optimization problems that have recently received significant attention. The proposed ANB is an ant algorithm motivated by recent works on the application of the ant algorithm to solving various problems related to computer networks. However, few works concern...

Localization in wireless sensor networks: Classification and evaluation of techniques

Ewa Niewiadomska-Szynkiewicz (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Recent advances in technology have enabled the development of low cost, low power and multi functional wireless sensing devices. These devices are networked through setting up a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Sensors that form a WSN are expected to be remotely deployed in large numbers and to self-organize to perform distributed sensing and acting tasks. WSNs are growing rapidly in both size and complexity, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to develop and investigate such large...

The branch and bound algorithm for a backup virtual path assignment in survivable ATM networks

Krzysztof Walkowiak (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Issues of network survivability are important, since users of computer networks should be provided with some guarantees of data delivery. A large amount of data may be lost in high-speed Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) due to a network failure and cause significant economic loses. This paper addresses problems of network survivability. The characteristics of virtual paths and their influence on network restoration are examined. A new problem of Backup Virtual Path Routing is presented...
