A Novel Timer-Based Hybrid Rerouting Algorithm for Improving Resource Utilization Efficiency and Shortening the Incurred Service Disruption Period in WDM Transparent Optical Networks
In this paper we investigate hybrid rerouting and minimization of incurred service disruption period due to
rerouting in Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) transparent optical network. One limitation of such a
network is the wavelength continuity constraint which does not allow a circuit to be placed on a non
wavelength-continuous route. The impact of this constraint might have a severe consequence on the
performance of transparent optical networks especially in terms of rejection ratio ant it is especially severe when
traffic demands are unpredictable and characterized by random arrivals and departures. To alleviate the impact
of these constraints, either wavelength conversion or traffic rerouting can be used. Since, in the foreseeable
future, wavelength conversion is expected to remain an expensive technology, traffic rerouting is an attractive
alternative solution. Thus, we here propose to employ hybrid rerouting to improve the network performances.
Hybrid rerouting combines passive and active rerouting. Through simulation results, the performances of the
proposed algorithm in terms of rejection ratio are demonstrated to be promising while rerouting a small number
of already established lightpaths using Lightpath ReRouting (LRR). By rerouting a small number of existing
lightpaths using LRR, we hope that the incurred service disruption period due to rerouting is minimized.

The document discusses a proposed Prioritized Congestion and Traffic Aware Routing (PCTAR) protocol for wireless sensor networks. PCTAR aims to improve throughput and energy efficiency. It does so by dynamically discovering routing zones using hybrid potential fields that consider both depth (distance to sink) and queue length, as well as data priority. Simulation results showed PCTAR improved overall throughput by 70% compared to the TADR protocol. PCTAR is suitable for applications in healthcare monitoring and military domains by prioritizing data delivery and reducing congestion.
Modeling and Simulation of Wavelength-Routed optical Networksijceronline
All-optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks providing extremely large bandwidths are among the most promising solutions to the increasing need for high-speed data transport. A lightpath has a specific route and one or more wavelengths through which the information is routed from the source to the destination node. In wavelength-routed optical networks, data are transmitted solely in the optical domain along lightpaths from source to destination without being converted into the electronic form and each lightpath is allowed to use the same wavelength on all the links along its path. This restriction is known as the wavelength continuity constraint. And it leads to an issue called as blocking in networks. Optical wavelength conversion with suitable Routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) can increase the performance and capacity of optical networks by eliminating this restriction and relaxing the wavelength continuity constraint. In this research, we analyze the problem of placing a limited number of wavelength converters in a mesh network using Weighted Maximum Segment Length (WMSL) converter placement algorithm. It employs Least-Loaded Routing and First-Fit (LLR-FF) RWA algorithm. It is tested on varying number of nodes in network and its respective blocking probabilities are calculated. The proposed algorithm provides the minimum blocking probability on optimal wavelength converters placement.
A Wavelength and Converter Assignment Scheme Using Converter Usage History in...IJCNCJournal
The document proposes a wavelength and converter assignment scheme for wavelength-routed networks to decrease lightpath blocking probability with a limited number of converters. The key points are:
1) The scheme avoids contention among multiple lightpath requests by making each node-pair perform wavelength conversion at different intermediate nodes, based on the intermediate nodes' converter usage history.
2) It assigns wavelength conversion costs to intermediate nodes based on their historical converter usage and number of idle converters, aiming to use different converters for different node-pairs and keep more converters available.
3) Simulation results show the proposed scheme decreases blocking probability by 44-83% compared to conventional schemes, and needs 1-2 fewer converters per node to achieve near-
This document discusses wavelength assignment algorithms in WDM optical networks. It compares the random wavelength assignment algorithm to the first-fit algorithm in terms of blocking probability. Blocking probability is lower with the first-fit algorithm compared to the random algorithm. The document also examines the impact of wavelength conversion capabilities (no conversion, partial conversion, and full conversion) on blocking probability. Blocking probability is lowest when full wavelength conversion is possible. The first-fit algorithm performs better than random assignment even without wavelength conversion capabilities.

Design and implementation of new routingIJCNCJournal
Energy consumption is a key element in the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) design. Indeed, sensor nodes are really constrained by energy supply. Hence, how to improve the network lifetime is a crucial and challenging task. Several techniques are available at different levels of the OSI model to maximize the WSN lifetime and especially at the network layer which uses routing strategies to maintain the routes in the network and guarantee reliable communication. In this paper we intend to propose a new protocol called
Combined Energy and Distance Metrics Dynamic Routing Protocol (CEDM-DR). Our new approach considers not only the distance between wireless sensors but also the energy of node acting as a router in order to find the optimal path and achieve a dynamic and adaptive routing.
The performance metrics exploited for the evaluation of our protocol are average energy consumed, network lifetime and packets lost. By comparing our proposed routing strategy to protocol widely used in WSN namely Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector(AODV), simulation results show that CEDM-DR strategy might effectively balance the sensor power consumption and permits accordingly to enhance the network
lifetime. As well, this new protocol yields a noticeable energy saving compared to its counterpart.

The processing of primary user mobility with static or mobile secondary user in the context of cognitive radio (CR) has recently been the subject of several studies and discussions all over the world. These studies are seeking to broaden the horizons of CR implementation beyond the formalism described in the diverse existing standards.

In this paper, we propose a new simple relaying strategy based on bit-interleaved convolutionally coded starquadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) along with coherent/ noncoherent detection. Exploiting this property, a hard limiter is used to enhance power amplifier (PA) efficiency at the relay. Here we are using the higher order modulation for improving relay communication, and also employ the accurate relay technique. Moreover, we show that the proposed approach retains differential detectability, which results in a significant reduction of receiver complexity with robustness against phase ambiguity, by analyzing our proposed method in terms of asymptotic pairwise error probability (PEP), Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in terms of PA efficiency is confirmed by comparing the statistical distributions of the corresponding instantaneous signal power. And also implement the PEP in MIMO systems for improving the powerefficiency. All the theoretical results agree with those obtained by computer simulations.

In this article, we present a new Ant-routing algorithm with colored pheromones and clustering techniques for satisfying users’ Quality of Service (QoS) requirements in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). An important problem is to detect the best route from a source node to the destination node. Moreover, it is considered that the feature of non-uniformly distributed traffic load and possibility existing of the traffic requiring various performances; therefore, it is assumed the different class of traffic required for QoS of communication. In this paper, novel protocol, the suitability of using meta-heuristic an ant colony optimization based on energy saving and multi objectives, the demand of QoS routing protocol for WSN will be very adaptive ,resident power and mainly decrease end-to-end delay. These metrics are used by colored pheromones adapted to the traffic classes. Moreover, we reinforce the proposed method for scalability issue by clustering techniques. We use a proactive route discover algorithms in clusters and reactive discovery mechanism between different clusters. Compared to existing QoS routing protocols, the novel algorithm has been designed for various service categories such as real time (RT) and best effort (BE) traffic, resulted lower packet deadline miss ratio and higher energy efficiency and better QoS and longer lifetime.
This document examines using a Minimum-Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) adaptive algorithm reception technique for 6th derivative Ultra-wideband (UWB) Gaussian pulse shape signals compared to a conventional UWB Rake receiver. The MMSE adaptive algorithm is more efficient due to its ability to adapt to changes in the IEEE 802.15.3a UWB multipath channel model. Performance is evaluated for Direct-Sequence and Time-Hopping transmission schemes over the channel in the presence of narrowband interference and multiple access interference from other UWB users. Simulation results show the MMSE adaptive algorithm receiver has better performance than the UWB Rake receiver due to its adaptability.

The document analyzes the performance of a 640 Gbps optical communication system with 16 channels of 40 Gbps return-to-zero differential phase shift keying signals transmitted over different types of single mode fibers. Simulations were conducted for duty cycles of 0.5, 0.8, and 0.99. Results showed that a duty cycle of 0.8 achieved the lowest bit error rate for all fiber types tested. A nonzero dispersion shifted fiber provided the highest transmission distance of 160 km before signal degradation for a 0.8 duty cycle, outperforming other fiber types. Increasing the duty cycle to 0.99 extended the transmission distance over a nonzero dispersion shifted fiber to 140 km.
Simulation Based Routing Protocols Evaluation for IEEE 802.15.4 enabled Wirel...IDES Editor
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is emerging as a
major research field in computer networks over the last decade
due to its wide variety of embedded real time applications.
Sensor networks have infrastructure-less architecture because
of frequently varying topology and link status. Routing is an
extremely challenging task for battery-powered resourceconstrained
WSN, since it is main cause for energy depletion
and energy must be utilized prudently to enhance lifetime
for sensor networks. This drives a myriad of research efforts
aiming at efficient data dissemination. In this paper we
analyze how efficiently MANET specific routing protocols
OLSR (Optimized Link-State Routing protocol), DYMO
(Dynamic MANET On-demand) and ZRP (Zone Routing
Protocol) perform in IEEE 802.15.4 enabled wireless sensor
networks and evaluate their simulation results using Qualnet
simulator. Several simulations were carried out under varying
network size and offered load for performance evaluation and
relative comparison of protocols is reported in terms of average
end to end delay, throughput and jitter.
Performance Analysis of Enhanced Opportunistic Minimum Cost Routingin Mobile ...IJERA Editor
Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes forming a temporary network with
infrastructure less environment to establish a data transmission between nodes within the network. A routing
protocol is used to discover routes between nodes. In this paper, we study the three existing routing protocols
namely AODV, DSDV and DSR to analyze theirperformance based on set of parameters.AODV and DSR
deliver almost all the packets compared to DSDV. Hence we try to modify the AODVprotocol and use in the
cooperative transmission.
In this paper, we study the cooperative transmission at the network layer and cooperative diversity at the
physical layer as a joint optimization of the transmission power in a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) with
static channel. However due to variable wireless channels static routing is suboptimal. Proposed protocol
proactively selects forwarding nodes that work cooperatively forwarding the packet towards the destination.
Cooperative transmission side diversity helps in reducing interference. Diversity can be achieved at the physical
layer by coordinating the multiple nodes. Nodes are equipped with Omni-directional antenna and take the
advantages of transmission side diversity to achieve energy saving, under the assumption that channel gains are
available at the transmitters.
The proposed Opportunistic Minimum Cost Cooperative Transmission Shortest Path (OMCTSP) algorithms
select the best optimum route with minimum cost in terms of energy, number of hops, available bandwidth, link
quality (SNR) and outage probability. As the network becomes larger, finding optimal routes becomes
computationally intractable as the complexity of the dynamic programming (DP) approach increases as o (22n)
where n is the number of nodes in the networks. Hence we develop two suboptimal algorithms have complexity
of o (n2) perform as same as optimal algorithm. Also developthe Opportunistic Cooperative Routing in MANET
(O_CORMAN), which is a network layer opportunistic routing scheme for mobile ad hoc networks. Nodes in
the network use the components proactive routing protocol, forwarder list update and local re-transmission. We
evaluate the performance using NS 2.32 simulator there is significant performance improvement with respect to
energy, throughput packet delivery, and delay compared with Modified AODV (OMCTSP).

Rate Adaptation for Time Varying Channels Using Distributed Relay Selectionpaperpublications3
Abstract: Fixed systems used in cooperative communication suffer from multiplexing loss and low spectral efficiency due to the half duplex constraint of relays. To improve the multiplexing gain, successive relaying is proposed. This allows concurrent transmission of the source and relays. However, the severe inter-relay interference becomes a key challenge. Here Rate Adaptation for Time Varying Channels Using Distributed Relay Selection is proposed, which is capable of adapting the relay’s rate using distributed relay selection.
This document summarizes a research project comparing wavelet packet based MC-CDMA with conventional MC-CDMA using the Hilbert-Huang transform tool.

It provides background on MC-CDMA and wavelet packet techniques. It outlines the methodology which involves simulation using MATLAB and the Hilbert-Huang transform tool for spectral analysis. The expected outcome is that wavelet packet MC-CDMA will demonstrate comparative superiority over conventional MC-CDMA.
Novel Routing Protocol Based on Periodic Route Discovery for Mobile Adhoc Net...IJERA Editor
A group of mobile devices called as nodes, without any centralized network, communicates with each other over multi-hop links is called as an Ad-hoc Network (MANET). The military battle-field scenarios, Post-disaster rescue efforts, sensor networks, and entrepreneurs in a conference are some of the examples of mobile ad-hoc networks. Since there is no infrastructure in the network, the routing should be handled at every node. To improve the life time of network different routing protocols are consider. In present routing protocols of ad hoc networks, routing is an act of moving information from a source to destination in an internetwork. Route is selected in the route discovery phase until all the packets are sent out. Due to the continuous flow of packets in a selected route leads to the route failure. In order to reduce this problem we consider PRD-based MMBCR and considering the percentage of the optimum value for periodic route discovery. In our research we are going to analyze the performance of different routing protocols like DSR, MMBCR to get maximum optimum value using Network Simulator Software.
This document summarizes a research project on developing an energy efficient routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks. It discusses how current routing protocols do not consider energy efficiency. The proposed Energy Efficient Source Routing Protocol (EESR) aims to reduce energy consumption, balance energy usage across nodes, and increase network lifetime. EESR selects routes based on a cost metric that considers transmission power, distance between nodes, and remaining battery capacity. Simulation results show EESR increases remaining power levels, lowers variations in power levels, and improves packet delivery rate compared to the Dynamic Source Routing protocol.
Wavelet Packet based Multicarrier Modulation for Cognitive UWB SystemsCSCJournals
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a multi-carrier modulation (MCM) scheme where the sub carriers are orthogonal waves. The main advantages of OFDM are robustness against multi-path fading, frequency selective fading, narrowband interference, and efficient use of spectrum. Recently it is proved that MCM system optimization can be achieved by applying wavelet bases instead of conventional fourier bases. Wavelet packet based MCM (WPMCM) systems have overall the same capabilities as OFDM systems with some improved features. In this research the literature and analytic schemes of WPMCM system is addressed, a wavelet packet based cognitive ultra wideband (UWB) transceiver is proposed, and performance analysis of WPMCM in different wireless multipath channels is investigated. Simulation results show a significant enhancement in terms of BER, spectral efficiency and side-lobes suppression comparing to conventional OFDM.
Quality of Service for Video Streaming using EDCA in MANETijsrd.com
Mobile Ad-hoc network(MANET) is a collection of wireless terminals that are able to dynamically form a temporary network. To establish such a network no fixed infrastructure is required. Here, it is the responsibility of network nodes to forward each other's packets and thus these nodes also act as routers. In such a network resources are limited and also topology changes dynamically. So providing Quality of service(QoS) is also necessary. QoS is more important for real time applications for example Video Streaming. IEEE 802.11e network standard supports QoS through EDCA technique. This technique does not fulfill the requirements of QoS. So, in this project modified EDCA technique is proposed to enhance QoS for Video Streaming application. This technique is implemented in NS2 and compared with traditional EDCA.
This document analyzes multipath fading profiles in multiple access system grids using orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems. It discusses how OFDMA systems exploit multiuser diversity and frequency selectivity to achieve high spectral efficiencies but require feedback and are sensitive to delays. It proposes a non-iterative method for resource allocation that has lower complexity than previous methods and simulates higher data rates. It also analyzes popular feedback schemes and the impact of feedback delays on system throughput.
This document discusses the use of subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) in optical communication networks. SCM allows a single lightwave carrier to transmit multiple communication channels by using different radio frequency subcarriers. Each receiver only needs to detect its assigned subcarrier rather than the full bandwidth. This improves receiver sensitivity and allows more users to be supported over a given fiber infrastructure. The document proposes a simple star coupler-based network using SCM that could support over 1000 users transmitting at 1.5 Mbps each. Limitations include the total usable bandwidth decreasing as more users are added. Overall, SCM provides an effective technique for building high-capacity optical access networks.
This document discusses enhancing the capacity of the wireless portion of a hybrid wireless-optical broadband access network (WOBAN) through the strategic placement of additional radios at bottleneck nodes. Deploying multiple radios at every node improves performance but increases costs. The document proposes formulating the problem of optimally placing a limited number of additional radios as an integer linear program to maximize performance while minimizing costs. Prior work on routing, capacity assignment, and radio placement in wireless mesh networks is reviewed. The impact of deploying multiple radios only at overloaded bottleneck nodes is studied through numerical examples.

An analytical framework is developed based on stochastic geometry to evaluate the performance of this asynchronous cognitive radio network with wireless energy harvesting secondary nodes.

Through Lean Manufacturing Techniques Improvement InProduction of Cement PlantIJERA Editor
The production of cement is a process industry which is distinct from manufacturing and the main objective here
is to apply lean manufacturing technique to the eradicate waste to the processes and parameters which are
common between process and discrete manufacturing. Lean signifies a major advance over traditional mass
production methods. Value stream mapping is used first to identify different waste present in the current state.
This paper will describe work undertaken investigating the application of lean thinking to a continuous
production environment, in this instance exemplified by the cement industry. Implementation of lean helps
many organizations to improve their productivity and efficiency Cement plays a vital role in economic
development of any country. Having more than a hundred and fifty years history, it has been used extensively in
construction of anything, from a small building to a mammoth multi-purpose project. The need for improving
the efficiency of the cement production line is widely acknowledged in order to reduce the downtime rates, and
satisfy high levels of market demand where the demand for cement is mostly second substance behind water.
This paper articulates a methodology for data collection, knowledge extraction, model creation and
experimentation that combines the use of process mapping, computational simulation. A detailed description of
each step of the process is given and is illustrated by results from a case study undertaken during the research.
This paper describes work undertaken to implement lean practices in the continuous process sector as
represented by cement production. One of the major barriers to lean implementation is providing evidence of its
potential benefit to end-users. This work aims to overcome this obstacle by producing a tool which can be used
to easily visualize the benefits of adopting lean practices without requiring disruption to the production
environment.
Probable technologies behind the Vimanas described in RamayanaIJERA Editor
In Sanskrit literature there is a prominent place for Maharshi Valmiki‟s Ramayana. This is one of the very few
popular epics which are translated to multiple languages across the world. It has seven kaandas (books), five
hundred sargas (chapters) and twenty four thousand slokas (verses) in it. The vimanas are described in various
kaandas of Ramayana. It is said that Ravana had the vimana which could appear and disappear, travel long
distances with high speed based on the thought power of the master. A few years ago in the year 2013
researchers from the University of Minnesota have designed a model quadcopter which can be flown by the
human thought power. As per Prof Bin He from the University of Minnesota, for the first time humans are able
to control the flight of flying robots using just their thought sensed from non-invasive brain waves. German
scientists from the Technical University of Munich under the leadership of Professor Tim Fricke have simulated
the flight of aircraft using thought power of the pilots. This makes us think if such an aircraft with an advanced
technology like this existed once upon a time during the era of Ramayana. Carvings of Ravana‟s vimana in
Ellora cave temples help us in comparing it with that of modern Jetpack. Descriptions on seating capacity of
Pushpaka vimana help us in comparing the same with Airbus 380-800 which can accommodate 853 passengers.
Concepts of invisibility of aircrafts make us think of camouflaging techniques and stealth technology used in
modern military aircrafts. All these features help us in analyzing the probable technologies behind vimanas
described in Ramayana.

This document examines using a Minimum-Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) adaptive algorithm reception technique for 6th derivative Ultra-wideband (UWB) Gaussian pulse shape signals compared to a conventional UWB Rake receiver. The MMSE adaptive algorithm is more efficient due to its ability to adapt to changes in the IEEE 802.15.3a UWB multipath channel model. Performance is evaluated for Direct-Sequence and Time-Hopping transmission schemes over the channel in the presence of narrowband interference and multiple access interference from other UWB users. Simulation results show the MMSE adaptive algorithm receiver has better performance than the UWB Rake receiver due to its adaptability.
Study in variable duty cycle return to zero pulse with multiplexed channels f...Alexander Decker
The document analyzes the performance of a 640 Gbps optical communication system with 16 channels of 40 Gbps return-to-zero differential phase shift keying signals transmitted over different types of single mode fibers. Simulations were conducted for duty cycles of 0.5, 0.8, and 0.99. Results showed that a duty cycle of 0.8 achieved the lowest bit error rate for all fiber types tested. A nonzero dispersion shifted fiber provided the highest transmission distance of 160 km before signal degradation for a 0.8 duty cycle, outperforming other fiber types. Increasing the duty cycle to 0.99 extended the transmission distance over a nonzero dispersion shifted fiber to 140 km.
Simulation Based Routing Protocols Evaluation for IEEE 802.15.4 enabled Wirel...IDES Editor
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is emerging as a
major research field in computer networks over the last decade
due to its wide variety of embedded real time applications.
Sensor networks have infrastructure-less architecture because
of frequently varying topology and link status. Routing is an
extremely challenging task for battery-powered resourceconstrained
WSN, since it is main cause for energy depletion
and energy must be utilized prudently to enhance lifetime
for sensor networks. This drives a myriad of research efforts
aiming at efficient data dissemination. In this paper we
analyze how efficiently MANET specific routing protocols
OLSR (Optimized Link-State Routing protocol), DYMO
(Dynamic MANET On-demand) and ZRP (Zone Routing
Protocol) perform in IEEE 802.15.4 enabled wireless sensor
networks and evaluate their simulation results using Qualnet
simulator. Several simulations were carried out under varying
network size and offered load for performance evaluation and
relative comparison of protocols is reported in terms of average
end to end delay, throughput and jitter.
Performance Analysis of Enhanced Opportunistic Minimum Cost Routingin Mobile ...IJERA Editor
Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes forming a temporary network with
infrastructure less environment to establish a data transmission between nodes within the network. A routing
protocol is used to discover routes between nodes. In this paper, we study the three existing routing protocols
namely AODV, DSDV and DSR to analyze theirperformance based on set of parameters.AODV and DSR
deliver almost all the packets compared to DSDV. Hence we try to modify the AODVprotocol and use in the
cooperative transmission.
In this paper, we study the cooperative transmission at the network layer and cooperative diversity at the
physical layer as a joint optimization of the transmission power in a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) with
static channel. However due to variable wireless channels static routing is suboptimal. Proposed protocol
proactively selects forwarding nodes that work cooperatively forwarding the packet towards the destination.
Cooperative transmission side diversity helps in reducing interference. Diversity can be achieved at the physical
layer by coordinating the multiple nodes. Nodes are equipped with Omni-directional antenna and take the
advantages of transmission side diversity to achieve energy saving, under the assumption that channel gains are
available at the transmitters.
The proposed Opportunistic Minimum Cost Cooperative Transmission Shortest Path (OMCTSP) algorithms
select the best optimum route with minimum cost in terms of energy, number of hops, available bandwidth, link
quality (SNR) and outage probability. As the network becomes larger, finding optimal routes becomes
computationally intractable as the complexity of the dynamic programming (DP) approach increases as o (22n)
where n is the number of nodes in the networks. Hence we develop two suboptimal algorithms have complexity
of o (n2) perform as same as optimal algorithm. Also developthe Opportunistic Cooperative Routing in MANET
(O_CORMAN), which is a network layer opportunistic routing scheme for mobile ad hoc networks. Nodes in
the network use the components proactive routing protocol, forwarder list update and local re-transmission. We
evaluate the performance using NS 2.32 simulator there is significant performance improvement with respect to
energy, throughput packet delivery, and delay compared with Modified AODV (OMCTSP).

Rate Adaptation for Time Varying Channels Using Distributed Relay Selectionpaperpublications3
Abstract: Fixed systems used in cooperative communication suffer from multiplexing loss and low spectral efficiency due to the half duplex constraint of relays. To improve the multiplexing gain, successive relaying is proposed. This allows concurrent transmission of the source and relays. However, the severe inter-relay interference becomes a key challenge. Here Rate Adaptation for Time Varying Channels Using Distributed Relay Selection is proposed, which is capable of adapting the relay’s rate using distributed relay selection.

The expected outcome is that wavelet packet MC-CDMA will demonstrate comparative superiority over conventional MC-CDMA.
Novel Routing Protocol Based on Periodic Route Discovery for Mobile Adhoc Net...IJERA Editor
A group of mobile devices called as nodes, without any centralized network, communicates with each other over multi-hop links is called as an Ad-hoc Network (MANET). The military battle-field scenarios, Post-disaster rescue efforts, sensor networks, and entrepreneurs in a conference are some of the examples of mobile ad-hoc networks. Since there is no infrastructure in the network, the routing should be handled at every node. To improve the life time of network different routing protocols are consider. In present routing protocols of ad hoc networks, routing is an act of moving information from a source to destination in an internetwork. Route is selected in the route discovery phase until all the packets are sent out. Due to the continuous flow of packets in a selected route leads to the route failure. In order to reduce this problem we consider PRD-based MMBCR and considering the percentage of the optimum value for periodic route discovery. In our research we are going to analyze the performance of different routing protocols like DSR, MMBCR to get maximum optimum value using Network Simulator Software.
This document summarizes a research project on developing an energy efficient routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks. It discusses how current routing protocols do not consider energy efficiency. The proposed Energy Efficient Source Routing Protocol (EESR) aims to reduce energy consumption, balance energy usage across nodes, and increase network lifetime. EESR selects routes based on a cost metric that considers transmission power, distance between nodes, and remaining battery capacity. Simulation results show EESR increases remaining power levels, lowers variations in power levels, and improves packet delivery rate compared to the Dynamic Source Routing protocol.
Wavelet Packet based Multicarrier Modulation for Cognitive UWB SystemsCSCJournals
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a multi-carrier modulation (MCM) scheme where the sub carriers are orthogonal waves. The main advantages of OFDM are robustness against multi-path fading, frequency selective fading, narrowband interference, and efficient use of spectrum. Recently it is proved that MCM system optimization can be achieved by applying wavelet bases instead of conventional fourier bases. Wavelet packet based MCM (WPMCM) systems have overall the same capabilities as OFDM systems with some improved features. In this research the literature and analytic schemes of WPMCM system is addressed, a wavelet packet based cognitive ultra wideband (UWB) transceiver is proposed, and performance analysis of WPMCM in different wireless multipath channels is investigated. Simulation results show a significant enhancement in terms of BER, spectral efficiency and side-lobes suppression comparing to conventional OFDM.
Quality of Service for Video Streaming using EDCA in MANETijsrd.com
Mobile Ad-hoc network(MANET) is a collection of wireless terminals that are able to dynamically form a temporary network. To establish such a network no fixed infrastructure is required. Here, it is the responsibility of network nodes to forward each other's packets and thus these nodes also act as routers. In such a network resources are limited and also topology changes dynamically. So providing Quality of service(QoS) is also necessary. QoS is more important for real time applications for example Video Streaming. IEEE 802.11e network standard supports QoS through EDCA technique. This technique does not fulfill the requirements of QoS. So, in this project modified EDCA technique is proposed to enhance QoS for Video Streaming application. This technique is implemented in NS2 and compared with traditional EDCA.
This document analyzes multipath fading profiles in multiple access system grids using orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems. It discusses how OFDMA systems exploit multiuser diversity and frequency selectivity to achieve high spectral efficiencies but require feedback and are sensitive to delays. It proposes a non-iterative method for resource allocation that has lower complexity than previous methods and simulates higher data rates. It also analyzes popular feedback schemes and the impact of feedback delays on system throughput.
This document discusses the use of subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) in optical communication networks. SCM allows a single lightwave carrier to transmit multiple communication channels by using different radio frequency subcarriers. Each receiver only needs to detect its assigned subcarrier rather than the full bandwidth. This improves receiver sensitivity and allows more users to be supported over a given fiber infrastructure. The document proposes a simple star coupler-based network using SCM that could support over 1000 users transmitting at 1.5 Mbps each. Limitations include the total usable bandwidth decreasing as more users are added. Overall, SCM provides an effective technique for building high-capacity optical access networks.
This document discusses enhancing the capacity of the wireless portion of a hybrid wireless-optical broadband access network (WOBAN) through the strategic placement of additional radios at bottleneck nodes. Deploying multiple radios at every node improves performance but increases costs. The document proposes formulating the problem of optimally placing a limited number of additional radios as an integer linear program to maximize performance while minimizing costs. Prior work on routing, capacity assignment, and radio placement in wireless mesh networks is reviewed. The impact of deploying multiple radios only at overloaded bottleneck nodes is studied through numerical examples.

This document discusses an asynchronous cognitive radio network with wireless energy harvesting capabilities. It proposes a model where a primary ad hoc network operates alongside a cognitive secondary network, with the primary nodes connected to a power grid and the secondary nodes capable of harvesting radio frequency (RF) energy. The channel access of both networks is asynchronous and modeled using time-space Poisson point processes. An analytical framework is developed based on stochastic geometry to evaluate the performance of this asynchronous cognitive radio network with wireless energy harvesting secondary nodes.

The production of cement is a process industry which is distinct from manufacturing and the main objective here
is to apply lean manufacturing technique to the eradicate waste to the processes and parameters which are
common between process and discrete manufacturing. Lean signifies a major advance over traditional mass
production methods. Value stream mapping is used first to identify different waste present in the current state.
This paper will describe work undertaken investigating the application of lean thinking to a continuous
production environment, in this instance exemplified by the cement industry. Implementation of lean helps
many organizations to improve their productivity and efficiency Cement plays a vital role in economic
development of any country. Having more than a hundred and fifty years history, it has been used extensively in
construction of anything, from a small building to a mammoth multi-purpose project. The need for improving
the efficiency of the cement production line is widely acknowledged in order to reduce the downtime rates, and
satisfy high levels of market demand where the demand for cement is mostly second substance behind water.
This paper articulates a methodology for data collection, knowledge extraction, model creation and
experimentation that combines the use of process mapping, computational simulation. A detailed description of
each step of the process is given and is illustrated by results from a case study undertaken during the research.
This paper describes work undertaken to implement lean practices in the continuous process sector as
represented by cement production. One of the major barriers to lean implementation is providing evidence of its
potential benefit to end-users. This work aims to overcome this obstacle by producing a tool which can be used
to easily visualize the benefits of adopting lean practices without requiring disruption to the production
environment.
Probable technologies behind the Vimanas described in RamayanaIJERA Editor
In Sanskrit literature there is a prominent place for Maharshi Valmiki‟s Ramayana. This is one of the very few
popular epics which are translated to multiple languages across the world. It has seven kaandas (books), five
hundred sargas (chapters) and twenty four thousand slokas (verses) in it. The vimanas are described in various
kaandas of Ramayana. It is said that Ravana had the vimana which could appear and disappear, travel long
distances with high speed based on the thought power of the master. A few years ago in the year 2013
researchers from the University of Minnesota have designed a model quadcopter which can be flown by the
human thought power. As per Prof Bin He from the University of Minnesota, for the first time humans are able
to control the flight of flying robots using just their thought sensed from non-invasive brain waves. German
scientists from the Technical University of Munich under the leadership of Professor Tim Fricke have simulated
the flight of aircraft using thought power of the pilots. This makes us think if such an aircraft with an advanced
technology like this existed once upon a time during the era of Ramayana. Carvings of Ravana‟s vimana in
Ellora cave temples help us in comparing it with that of modern Jetpack. Descriptions on seating capacity of
Pushpaka vimana help us in comparing the same with Airbus 380-800 which can accommodate 853 passengers.
Concepts of invisibility of aircrafts make us think of camouflaging techniques and stealth technology used in
modern military aircrafts. All these features help us in analyzing the probable technologies behind vimanas
described in Ramayana.

Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor -A New Perspective In Pulp And Paper Waste Water T...IJERA Editor
The pulp and paper mill effluent is one of the high polluting effluent amongst the effluents obtained
from polluting industries. All the available methods for treatment of pulp and paper mill effluent have certain
drawbacks. In this work, experiments were conducted to treat the pulp and paper mill effluent using moving bed
biofilm reactor (MBBR).The wastewater generated by these industries contains high COD, BOD, colour, organic
substances and toxic chemicals. This study was carried out on laboratory scale Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor with
proflex type biocarriers, where the biofilm grows on small, free floating plastic elements with a large surface area
and a density slightly less than 1.0 g/cm3
. The reactor was operated continuously at 50% percentages filling of
biocarriers. During the filling percentage, the removal efficiencies of COD & BOD were monitored at the time
period of 2h, 4h, 6h and 8h. The result showed that the maximum COD and BOD removal of 87% were achieved
for the 50 percent filling of biocarriers at the HRT of 8 h. From the experimental results, the moving bed biofilm
reactor could be used as an ideal and efficient option for the organic and inorganic removal from the wastewater
of pulp and paper industry

This review paper aims towards the optimization of CNC turning operation when used over an OHNS material.
The lathe machine was chosen because of its widespread availability and its ability to perform various tasks
without much change in its structure. Also using lathe machines is very cheap and hence it is beneficial from
economic point of view as well. The turning operation was specifically chosen because of the various
advantages that it offers. It can be used for machining a large variety of materials and it is cheaper than milling.
OHNS (Oil Hardened Non Shrinking) tool was chosen due to its hardness. These materials are used only for
dies so it was chosen so that its industrial usage could be exploited. To comprehend the usage, all the input and
output parameters that could affect the machining process, namely input parameters like feed, cutting
conditions, speed, etc. and output parameters like surface roughness, surface finish, material removal rate were
analyzed using the researches that had already been done on CNC turning. After careful study of a variety of
research papers on this topic, it was decided that several input as well as the output parameters would be
considered which included feed, depth of cut and cutting speed were taken as the input parameters whereas
Material Removal Rate (MRR) and surface finish were taken as the output parameters. From the results of the
research papers, it was concluded that feed, depth of cut and cutting speed could be chosen as input parameters
whereas MRR and surface finish would be the output parameters

Outlier Detection Using Unsupervised Learning on High Dimensional DataIJERA Editor
The outliers in data mining can be detected using semi-supervised and unsupervised methods. Outlier
detection in high dimensional data faces various challenges from curse of dimensionality. It means due
to the distance concentration the data becomes unobvious in high dimensional data. Using outlier

good outliers. In high dimensional data to detect outliers effectively, we use unsupervised learning
methods like IQR, KNN with Anti hub.

1) The document studies the effects of changing the location of a lift core (elevator shaft) on the seismic performance of buildings.
2) Static and dynamic analyses were conducted on G+5 and G+10 buildings with the lift core located either in the center or corner, and on hard, medium, and soft soil.
3) The results show that buildings with a center lift core experienced less story drift, lower base shear, and longer natural periods compared to buildings with a corner lift core, indicating better seismic performance. Locating the lift core in the center helps reduce torsional effects.
In this paper, three beamforming design are considered for multi user MIMO system. First, transmit
beamformers are fixed and the receive (RX) beamformers are calculated. Transmit beamformer (TX-BF)is
projectedas a null space of appropriate channels. It reduces the interference for each user. Then the receiver
beamformer is determined which maximize the SNR. This beamforming design provides less computation time.
The second case is joint TX and RX beamformer for SNR maximization. In this transmitter and receiver
beamformer are calculated using extended alternating optimization (EAO) algorithm. The third one is joint
transmitter and receiver beamforming for SNR and SINR maximization using EAO algorithm. This algorithm
provides better error performance and sum rate performance. All the design cases are simulated by using
standard multipath channel model. Our simulation results illustrate that compared to the least square design and
zero forcing design, the joint TX and RX beamforming design using EAO algorithm provides faster
beamforming and improved error performance and sum rate.

Abstract In optical circuit switching the high values of blocking probability is resolved by dynamic wavelength routing algorithms with wavelength conversion. The aim of this paper is to study these algorithms. Then the algorithm is selected which gives good results with and without wavelength conversion. The selected algorithm is then checked for other parameters of networking namely throughput, packet delivery ratio, and delay. A comparative study is then carried out for increasing traffic. We try to prove that these algorithms satisfy the criteria of QoS parameters by this comparative study. The results of simulation show that the parameters follow the trend of blocking probability of the selected algorithm. Keywords: optical burst switching, throughput, packet delivery ratio, delay.
MMINIMUM RESOURCE CONSUMPTIONS ROUTING FOR OPTICAL NETWORKSprj_publication
The problem of determining primary and backup paths for survivable optical WDM
networks is considered. Results of various available routing techniques that try to minimize
the combined cost of primary and the backup path are analyzed for the effects on network
parameters such as mean load, variance of the load on route, number of converters required
by the route and the length of the route. The route cost is modelled such a way that it is
extensible to include any new parameter and vary their relative importance. The efficiency of
such wavelength routed networks has been proved to improve for certain parameters, such as
reduction in blocking probability and number of converters required for desired performance.
The routing is enhanced to analyse effect on network parameters for all node full range
converters, limited number full converters, reserved primary and back up wavelengths and
with no such reservation.
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes an energy and bandwidth constrained routing technique for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). It presents an available bandwidth measurement algorithm that estimates available bandwidth more accurately by considering node capacity, link utilization, idle time synchronization, collision probability, and overhead from backoff mechanisms. It also proposes a probability-based overhearing method to reduce energy consumption from overhearing without affecting route quality. The techniques are evaluated using NS2 simulations to analyze network performance in terms of quality of service parameters.
DYNAMIC CONGESTION CONTROL IN WDM OPTICAL NETWORKcscpconf
This paper is based on Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) optical networking. In this optical networking, prior to data transfer, lightpath establishment between source and
destination nodes is usually carried out through a wavelength reservation protocol. This wavelength is reserved corresponding to a route between the source and destination and the
route is chosen following any standard routing protocol based on shortest path. The backward reservation protocol is implemented initially. A fixed connected and weighted network is
considered. The inputs of this implementation are the fixed network itself and its corresponding shortest path matrix. After this initial level of implementation, the average node usage over a time period is calculated and various thresholds for node usage are considered. Above threshold value, request arriving at that path selects its next shortest path. This concept is
implemented on various wavelengths. The output represents the performance issues of dynamic congestion control.

This document proposes algorithms to maximize network lifetime in wireless sensor networks using cooperative MAC protocols. It formulates the problems of minimizing transmission power and maximizing network lifetime as cross-layer optimization problems considering routing, relay selection, and power allocation. Distributed algorithms are presented that solve these problems for both direct transmission and cooperative transmission modes. The algorithms select routes and relay nodes to minimize power consumption or equalize node lifetimes while meeting requirements for transmission success probability and rate.
This document compares different wavelength assignment algorithms in WDM networks. It proposes a new Least Used Wavelength Conversion algorithm that aims to reduce blocking probability. The algorithm uses least-used wavelength assignment until blocking occurs, then introduces wavelength conversion to reduce blocking. Simulation results show the proposed algorithm has lower blocking probability than first-fit, random, most-used and best-fit algorithms. Blocking probability is evaluated under different network loads and number of wavelengths, demonstrating that blocking decreases with more wavelengths or lower loads.
Approaches And Controllers To Solving The Contention Problem For Packet Switc...Rachel Doty
This document summarizes approaches and controllers for solving contention problems in optical packet switching (OPS) networks. It discusses both contention resolution and avoidance schemes. Contention resolution schemes like wavelength conversion, fiber delay line buffering, deflection routing, and retransmission attempt to resolve collisions reactively after they occur. Contention avoidance schemes such as multi-fiber architecture, additional wavelengths, and controlled traffic transmission try to proactively reduce the number of potential collision events. The document also reviews using neural networks as learning approaches for contention control in OPS networks by mapping packet switching onto an input request matrix that can be processed by a neural network controller.
An energy aware scheme for layered chain in underwater wireless sensor networ...IJECEIAES
Extending the network lifetime is a very challenging problem that needs to be taken into account during routing data in wireless sensor networks in general and particularly in underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN). For this purpose, the present paper proposes a multilayer chain based on genetic algorithm routing (MCGA) for routing data from nodes to the sink. This algorithm consists to create a limited number of local chains constructed by using genetic algorithm in order to obtain the shortest path between nodes; furthermore, a leader node (LN) is elected in each chain followed by constructing a global chain containing LNs. The selection of the LN in the closest chain to the sink is as follows: Initially, the closest node to sink is elected LN in this latter because all nodes have initially the same energy value; then the future selection of the LN is based on the residual energy of the nodes. LNs in the other chains are selected based on the proximity to the previous LNs. Data transmission is performed in two steps: intra-chain transmission and inter-chain transmission. Furthermore, MCGA is simulated for different scenarios of mobility and density of nodes in the networks. The performance evaluation of the proposed technique shows a considerable reduction in terms of energy consumption and network lifespan.

WRAP is a medium access control (MAC) protocol for wavelength-routed passive optical networks (WR-PONs) that does not require a separate control channel, carrier sensing, or centralized scheduling. Each node has a single tunable transmitter and fixed receiver. Access is regulated through wavelength allocations made by destination nodes in response to requests. Simulations test three allocation algorithms and show the Preferential/Random algorithm provides better performance than alternatives. WRAP performance is also compared to two other applicable protocols, showing WRAP enables high utilization over a wide range of traffic conditions while guaranteeing minimum bandwidth between nodes.

Energy Saving DSR and Probabilistic Rebroadcast Mechanism are used to Increas...IJTET Journal
Abstract- MANETs are infrastructure less and can be set up anytime anywhere. Due to high mobility of nodes in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), there exist frequent link breakages which lead to frequent path failures and route discoveries. The overhead of a route discovery cannot be neglected. In a route discovery, broadcasting is a fundamental and effective data broadcasting mechanism, where a mobile node blindly rebroadcasts the first received route request packets unless it has a route to the destination, and thus it causes the broadcast storm problem and without consider the nodes energy level of route selection it leads to reduce the network lifetime. In this paper proposed to focus is on a two mechanism ESDSR and Neighbor coverage based Probabilistic rebroadcast to overcome those problems. A Energy Saving Dynamic Source Routing in MANETs (ESDSR) which will efficiently utilize the battery power consideration in the route selection time of mobile nodes in such a way that the network will get more life time and Neighbor coverage based Probabilistic rebroadcast mechanism, which can significantly decrease the number of retransmissions so as to reduce the routing overhead, and can also improve the routing performance. The simulation was carried out using the NS-2 network simulator.
Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks: Improved Energy Efficiency and Coverage ...CSCJournals
This paper proposes a new method for collecting distributed data in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) that can improve the energy efficiency and network coverage; especially in remote areas. In multi-hop communication, sink nodes are responsible for collecting and forwarding data to base stations. The nodes that are located near a sink node usually deplete their battery faster than other nodes because they are responsible for aggregating the data from other sensor nodes. Several studies have proved the advantages of using mobile sink nodes to reduce energy consumption. Nonetheless, the need for compatible and efficient routing algorithms cannot be understated. Accordingly, a hybrid routing algorithm based on the Dijkstra�s and Rendezvous algorithms is proposed. To improve the energy efficiency and coverage, Energy Efficient Hybrid Unmanned Vehicle Based Routing Algorithm (E2HUV) is proposed to create a routing path for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that can be used as mobile sinks in WSNs. Performance results show that the E2HUV algorithm offers better efficiency as compared to currently existing algorithms.

The Rapid growth of technology and infrastructure has made our lives easier. The
advent of technology has also increased the traffic hazards and the road accidents take place
frequently which causes huge loss of life and property because of the poor emergency facilities.
Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could get accident information and
reach in time. Our project will provide an optimum solution to this draw back. A piezo electric
sensor can be used as a crash or rollover detector of the vehicle during and after a crash. With
signals from a piezo electric sensor, a severe accident can be recognized. According to this
project when a vehicle meets with an accident immediately piezo electric sensor will detect the
signal or if a car rolls over. Then with the help of GSM module and GPS module, the location
will be sent to the emergency contact. Then after conforming the location necessary action will
be taken. If the person meets with a small accident or if there is no serious threat to anyone’s
life, then the alert message can be terminated by the driver by a switch provided in order to
avoid wasting the valuable time of the medical rescue team.

ABSTRACT
In this paper we investigate hybrid rerouting and minimization of incurred service disruption period due to
rerouting in Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) transparent optical network. One limitation of such a
network is the wavelength continuity constraint which does not allow a circuit to be placed on a non
wavelength-continuous route. The impact of this constraint might have a severe consequence on the
performance of transparent optical networks especially in terms of rejection ratio ant it is especially severe when
traffic demands are unpredictable and characterized by random arrivals and departures. To alleviate the impact
of these constraints, either wavelength conversion or traffic rerouting can be used. Since, in the foreseeable
future, wavelength conversion is expected to remain an expensive technology, traffic rerouting is an attractive
alternative solution. Thus, we here propose to employ hybrid rerouting to improve the network performances.
Hybrid rerouting combines passive and active rerouting. Through simulation results, the performances of the
proposed algorithm in terms of rejection ratio are demonstrated to be promising while rerouting a small number
of already established lightpaths using Lightpath ReRouting (LRR). By rerouting a small number of existing
lightpaths using LRR, we hope that the incurred service disruption period due to rerouting is minimized.

I. INTRODUCTION
Multimedia applications such as peer-to-
peer live media streaming, distance education,
video-on-demand and video conference require
networks with large amount of bandwidth.
Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) based
optical net-working architectures using optical cross-
connects (OXCs) are promising solutions [1]. An
optical fiber, which uses WDM technology is
capable of providing a large amount of bandwidth
(nearly 50 Tb/s) [2]. Each fiber link can support a
number of wavelength channels by using WDM. In a
WDM network, data traffic is transported from one
node to another in the form of optical pulses carried
over an optical path, called lightpath. Today, a
lightpath can carry approximately 40 Gbits/s of data
traffic, and its holding period is usually very long.
The problem of establishing lightpaths, with the
objective of optimizing the network resource
utilization is known as the Routing and Wavelength
Assignment (RWA) problem [3]. The RWA problem
has been extensively investigated in the literature
and most of the proposed approaches considers
either networks with wavelength conversion
capabilities [4], [5] or networks without any
wavelength conversion [6],[7], [8], [9], [10]. Using
wavelength converters potentially allows the
network to support a larger set of lightpaths.
However, such converters remain too expensive [6].
Nowadays, WDM transparent optical
networks, where all the switching, routing and
intelligent control functions can be handled more
effectively in the optical domain, turn out to be an
efficient solution to overcome many problems arisen
in traditional electronic networks such as the
electronic bottleneck problem. These networks, also
known as WDM all-optical networks [11], are
widely recognized as the most promising candidates
for next generation telecommunication networks that
are expected to fulfill the tremendous bandwidth
demand and enable the deployment of new network
services. In such a network, a lightpath connecting
the source node to the destination node of a lightpath
demand and spanning a set of network fiber-links is
established subject to the following two constraints:
Wavelength clash constraint: The
wavelength clash constraint states that a wavelength
may be used only once per fiber at a given instant.

Wavelength continuity constraint: A
lightpath is set up by allocating the same wavelength
on all the fiber links it traverses from its source node
to its destination node.
The Wavelength continuity constraint
reduces the possibility of successfully finding a free
wavelength on a path and thus may force the
lightpath to get blocked. Wavelength conversion is
one technique to alleviate the inefficiency caused by
wavelength continuity constraints but increases
significantly the network design cost. Rerouting is a
useful technique which also helps to increase the
overall network resources utilization efficiency.
Rerouting (or repacking) is a concept
originally introduced in the design of circuit-
switched telephone networks [12]. It has been
applied to WDM optical networks over the two past
decades [7], [8], [9], [10]. Rerouting is defined as
the action of rearranging an established circuit (or
virtual path in ATM networks, lightpath in WDM
networks) from one path to another path without
changing the source and destination nodes. There are
two ways to rearrange an existing lightpath [13]:
Wavelength ReRouting (WRR) which keeps the
original path of the lightpath to be rerouted but
reassigns a different wavelength to the fiber
links along the path.
Lightpath ReRouting (LRR) which consists of
finding a new path with possibly another
wavelength to replace the old path.
In [8] authors demonstrate that LRR
induces a service disruption period higher than that
of WRR.
A comprehensive survey of rerouting
techniques can be found in [14]. Rerouting in a
WDM all-optical network can be divided into two
categories with respect to the timestamp of initiating
the rerouting procedure:
The first is passive rerouting: rerouting
procedure is initiated when an incoming lightpath
demand is about to be rejected due to lack of
resources. It aims at rearranging a certain number of
existing lightpaths to free a wavelength-continuous
route for the incoming lightpath demand.
The second category is active rerouting,
also called intentional rerouting, which reroutes
dynamically existing lightpaths to a more suitable
physical path according to some predefined criteria,
without affecting other lightpaths, so as to achieve a
better blocking performance.
In this paper we focus on hybrid rerouting,
which combines passive and active rerouting to see
whether a combination of these two rerouting
concepts can further improve the blocking
performance and minimize the incurred service
disruption period due to rerouting when Random
Lightpath Demands (RLDs) are considered.
The remainder of this paper is organized as
follows. A summary of the related work is presented
in Section 2. Then we explain in details the proposed
algorithm in Section 3. The simulations are
conducted and the results are discussed in Section 4.
Finally, Section 5 concludes the paper.
II. RELATED WORK
A number of RWA schemes applying
rerouting to alleviate the effect of the wavelength
continuity constraint when there is no wavelength
conversion have been proposed so far in the
literature. Most of these schemes are based on
passive rerouting concept. In [7], [8], authors first
introduced the passive wavelength rerouting concept
by proposing a wavelength rerouting scheme called
Move To Vacant Wavelength Retuning (MTV-WR).
The basic idea of this algorithm is that, in case a
RLD gets blocked with normal assignment process,
a few established lightpaths may be reassigned, if
possible, to other wavelengths to enable the new
RLD to get a wavelength-continuous route from its
source to destination. While reassigning an existing
lightpath it maintains the original path of the
lightpath. Parallel MTV-WR deals with the rerouting
of multiple lightpaths at the same time. The main
concern of this algorithm is to minimize the rejection
ratio and the service disruption period. A time
optimal passive wavelength rerouting algorithm
based on the Parallel MTV-WR rerouting scheme
was presented later in [9]. Recently, a new passive
lightpath rerouting scheme called Sequential
Routing with Lightpath Rerouting (SeqRwLR) is
proposed in [15] to improve the rejection ratio while
keeping a small service disruption period.
All of the aforementioned rerouting
algorithms use the passive rerouting concept i.e they
only perform rerouting when a new RLD is to be
blocked. In [10] and [17], authors proposed two
active rerouting schemes which dynamically adjust
physical paths of existing lightpaths according to
some predefined criteria. The first scheme called
Dynamic Least Congested Routing (DLCR) reroutes
dynamically existing lightpaths to the vacant least
congested route if a better load balancing can be
achieved. The basic idea of the second algorithm is
to reroute dynamically an existing lightpath to one of
its K-shortest path with the highest weight value and
the difference between the weight values is greater
than the pre-defined threshold. The weight value
associated to a path can be calculated by a pre-
defined weight function. The design of the weight
function could be very complicated. Usually it
should consider lots of factors, e.g., the path hop-
count, and the free wavelength distributions. Authors
assume that a large weight value means a good
candidate path [17]. Recently, new active lightpath
rerouting schemes called the Timer-Based Active

Lightpath Rerouting algorithm (TB-ALR) and the
Sequential Routing with Active Lightpath Rerouting
algorithm (SeqRwALR), respectively, are proposed
in [18]. The basic idea of both algorithms is to
dynamically reroute some already established
lightpaths to more appropriate physical paths so as to
reduce the network resources consumption. The TB-
ALR algorithm initiates the rerouting procedure at
some predefined time instants whereas the
SeqRwALR algorithm initiates the rerouting
procedure at the end time of an established lightpath
demand when its lightpath is released. Simulation
results show that the two proposed active rerouting
algorithms provide better blocking performances
than previously presented passive rerouting
algorithms but they introduce a higher service
disruption period since they use only LRR. In [19],
authors investigated hybrid rerouting. The proposed
algorithm called Sequential Routing with Hybrid
Lightpath Rerouting algorithm (SeqRwHLR). The
basic idea of this algorithm is to dynamically reroute
some already established RLDs to shorter physical
paths so as to reduce the network resources
consumption and perform a simple passive WRR
procedure if a new incoming RLD is to be blocked
due to lack of resources. The authors demonstrated
that hubrid rerouting works much better than passive
rerouting and incurs a service disruption period
lower than that incurred by active rerouting.
III. THE PROPOSED ALGORITHM
This paper proposes a hybrid rerouting
algorithm, namely, Sequential Routing with Timer-
Based Hybrid Lightpath Rerouting (SeqRwTBHLR)
algorithm to alleviate the inefficiency brought by the
wavelength continuity constraint in WDM all-optical
networks without any wavelength conversion
capabilities. Lightpath demands are assumed to be
with random arrivals and departures. The basic idea
behind this algorithm is to combine passive
rerouting and active rerouting to hopefully improve
the network rejection ratio and minimize the
incurred service disruption period due to rerouting.
The SeqRwTBHLR algorithm computes the RWA
for the RLDs sequentially that is demand by demand
at their arrival dates. When an incoming RLD cannot
be set up in the absence of network resources
between its source and destination nodes, the
SeqRwTBHLR algorithm performs passive WRR
procedure aiming hopefully at freeing a wavelength-
continuous route to service the new RLD. WRR
concept is used here since it has the following
attractive features. First, it has simple switching
control because the old and new paths of rerouted
lightpaths share the same switching nodes. Second,
it provides shorter service disruption period that
should be only of the order of microseconds [8].
Furthermore, our proposed algorithm dynamically
reroutes some already established lightpaths from
longer paths to vacant shorter ones so as to reduce
the network resources consumption. This should
hopefully lead to a better resource utilization
efficiency. The SeqRwTBHLR algorithm allows
active LRR of an existing RLD only once during its
life period so as to reduce the service disruption
period. The active LRR procedure is initiated
periodically during the life period of an established
RLD. Indeed, a timer is cocked at the setup time of
the arriving RLD and the active LRR procedure is
launched whenever the timer expires. In the
following, we first define the notations used in the
subsequent subsections. We then describe the
routing and rerouting procedures in details.

3.2. The routing procedure
The SeqRwTBHLR algorithm’s routing
procedure is based on the algorithm described in [8].
The approach is to transform the network to a graph.
The graph’s vertices correspond to the network
nodes whereas the edges correspond to the
fiberlinks. Each edge in the graph is associated a
weight label representing the cost of routing a new
lightpath on the corresponding fiber-link. To reduce
the computational complexity and to simplify the
notation, we decompose the graph into a few disjoint
subgraphs, each corresponding to the network on a
particular wavelength. The routing algorithm finds
the shortest path on each subgraph and then chooses
the least costly one among all the individual
subgraphs. Smallest wavelength index is used to
break a tie. The minimum-cost wavelength and its
associated shortest path, if the routing of the demand
is feasible, are selected according to the following
three steps:
3.2.1. Step1: Graph transformation
The network ( , )G with the
wavelength set is transformed into a
collection of disjoint subgraphs
( , ),G
, each corresponding
to the network on a particular wavelength. For
each wavelength , the subgraph
( , )G
is obtained by generating a
vertex i
and an edge ,i j
if i and
,i j , respectively. Thus the new graph
is ,G
where:
: ,
, : , ,

3.2.2. Step 2: Cost Labeling
,c i j
is the cost of using wavelength
on link ,i j . The weight function of each
edge of the graph is determined by whether a
channel is free or busy, i.e.,
is free o n lin k ( , )
,
if i j
c i j

Where is a tiny positive value.
3.2.3. Step 3: Route Searching:
For each , the routing algorithm computes
the shortest loop-free path with finite cost on each
subgraph ( , )G
according to the
algorithm described in [16]. Let be the set of all
computed shortest paths. Two cases may happen:
, no shortest paths with finite cost exist
and the passive WRR procedure, described in
subsection 3.3.1, will be considered.
, which means that there is at least one
available path-free wavelength along one
shortest path connecting the source node to the
destination node of the RLD to be set up. The
least costly path and its corresponding
wavelength are selected to break a tie. It may
happen that two or multiple shortest paths have
the same cost. In that case, the wavelength with
the smallest index is used.
3.3. The rerouting procedures
3.3.1. The passive WRR procedure
We assume that a new RLD numbered i
arrives at time t and that the routing procedure fails
to establish it. The passive WRR procedure is hence
launched to hopefully free a path-free wavelength
for the incoming RLD after rerouting a minimum
number of existing RLDs to a new vacant
wavelength on the same path. It proceeds in three
steps.
Step 1: We need the following notations to
explain the principles of the first step. Assume
that an existing lightpath u U (U is the set
of existing lightpaths in the network), passes
through the sequence of directed links

on the wavelength ( )u . Define
( ),g u u U as the retuning variable:
( )g u if the lightpath u can be retuned

otherwise. A returnable lightpath u is
( )g u N u ll [8].
After identifying all the retunable lightpaths on same
paths, step 2 begins.
Step 2: It constructs an auxiliary graph by
creating crossover edges for every retunable
lightpath. A crossover edge between nodes
1
n and 2
n for a retunable lightpath p is created,
if there exists a path of length two or more
between 1
n and 2
n comprising only the edges
of p. The cost for an idle edge is a tiny positive
constant while the cost for a non-retunable
edge and for an already rerouted edge on new
physical path is infinite. Cost for a retunable
edge associated with retunable lightpath u is
u
c ( u
c number of WDM channel to be
rerouted) which is a positive weighting factor
indicating the penalty of rerouting an existing
lightpath u to accommodate the new RLD.
Step 3: The least costly shortest path and
associated wavelength will be sought for
serving the new RLD. If the resulting minimum
cost is finite, the new RLD can be successfully
accommodated after rerouting one or several
existing lightpaths which are determined by the
first phase of rerouting. Those existing
lightpaths overlapping with the new RLD
should be rerouted to the vacant wavelength on
the same path as indicated by the retuning
variable ( )g u .
If no path with a finite cost can be found, the new
RLD is definitively rejected.
3.3.2. The active LRR procedure:
When a new arriving RLD numbered i is
successfully established on path i
P , a rerouting
timer is started. This timer starts at a predetermined
value and counts down over time. When the
rerouting timer expires, the active LRR procedure is
launched. If the existing RLD has not been already
rerouted by the passive WRR procedure, two
different situations may happen:
If i i
i.e the difference between the
number of hops of i
P and that of the new
vacant path i
R is higher than the pre-defined
rerouting threshold . The new path i
R is
considered to be more suitable to carry the
active RLD. The active RLD numbered i is
hence rerouted from i
P to i
R . The cost of the
edges on i
R is updated to and that of the
edges on the released path i
P is updated to .
If i i
, we here assume that it is not
worthy to reroute the active RLD numbered i to
i
R and no rerouting is performed. The timer is
reinitialized to and the active LRR
procedure is once again launched when the
timer expires.
Transmission of the existing lightpaths to
be rerouted must be temporarily shut-down to
protect data from being lost or misrouted resulting in
long service disruption incurred by the longer
propagation delay for transmitting signaling
messages in all-optical wide-area networks.
Therefore, in such networks minimization of the
incurred service disruption is imperative.
In order to shorten the duration of the
service disruption period, one may notice that our
proposed algorithm allows wavelength rerouting of
an existing RLD several times but rerouting of an
existing RLD on new physical path is allowed only
once during its life period. This is because that, as
theoretically demonstrated in [26], the service
disruption period is lower for rerouting a RLD on
new wavelength on the same physical path than for
rerouting an existing RLD on new physical path and
eventually a new wavelength.
IV. NUMERICAL RESULTS
To evaluate the performance of the
proposed Timer-Based hybrid lightpath rerouting
algorithm, we simulate it on the network topologies
shown in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. The
following assumptions are used. RLDs arrive
according to a Poisson process with common arrival
rate r and once accepted, will hold the network
resources for exponentially distributed times with
mean holding time equal to 1 much larger than the
network-wide propagation delay and the connection
setup delay. The source and destination nodes of the
connection requests arriving at the network are
chosen according to a random uniform distribution
in the interval [1, 21] for the 21- node network and
in [1, 29] for the 29-node network. Each fiber
supports W = 13 wavelengths. Each node has enough
transmitters and receivers such that a new
connection request will not be blocked due to lack of
transmitters and receivers. A blocked connection is
cleared and will not retry.

small values of and give better performances
in terms of rejection ratio. But with the decrease of

with the decrease of , the average number of

gain obtained thanks to rerouting, we also plot on the
same figure (first data curve) the average rejection
ratio obtained by a traditional no-rerouting algorithm
called the Sequential RWA algorithm (SeqR) which
computes the RWA for the arriving RLDs on the fly
without any rerouting according to the routing
procedure described in Subsection 3.2.

From Fig 4, we notice that smaller values
of and lead to a better rejection ratio gain.
But, if the value of and are too small, the
average number of rerouted RLDs increases
resulting in higher overall service disruption period
incurred due to rerouting. From the preceding
observations, one should notice that a trade-off
arises between the rejection ratio gain and the
rerouting timer’s predetermined value and the
rerouting threshold . A reasonable tradeoff is
observed for 5 hops and 0.042 , i.e, if
the average lightpath holding time is one day, then
can be set to 1 hour. By setting the value of
to 0.042 and that of to 5, we achieve an average
rejection ratio gain equal to 11.9% (respectively
11.2% for the 29-node network) while keeping the
service disruption period at a very low level since
the average ratio of rerouted RLDs is 32.1%
(respectively 27.2% for the 29-node network) and
only 15.7% of which are rerouted on new physical
paths (respectively 14.4% for the 29-node network).
Furthermore, we notice that the three
curves showing the variation of the average ratio of
rerouted RLDs are so close when 5 and in
contrast the curves representing the average rejection
ratio gain are not enough close. Indeed, we notice a
significant reduction in terms of average rejection
ratio gain ( 3 % ) when 0.125 and
0.25 for a slight reduction in the average
ratio of rerouted RLDs ( 1% ) compared to the
case 0.042 . These results consolidate, once
again, our choice for the values of and .
4.2. Rejection ratio
As already mentioned, we set, in the
following, the value of to 5 and that of to
0.042 and propose to study the performances of our
proposed algorithm, in comparison with those
obtained by the traditional no-rerouting algorithm
(SeqR) in order to assess the gain obtained thanks to
rerouting, and the following four algorithms:
The Parallel Move To Vacant Wavelength
Retuning algorithm (Parallel MTV-WR)
described in [8]. The Parallel MTV-WR
algorithm is a passive wavelength rerouting
algorithm that performs wavelength rerouting if
an arriving RLD is to be rejected due to lack of
resources.
The Sequential Routing with Lightpath
Rerouting algorithm (SeqRwLR) described in
[15]. The SeqRwLR algorithm is a passive
lightpath rerouting algorithm which initiates the
rerouting procedure only when an incoming
RLD is to be blocked due to lack of resources.
The Timer-Based Active Lightpath Rerouting
(TB-ALR) algorithm described in [18]. The TB-
ALR algorithm is an active lightpath rerouting
algorithm that dynamically reroutes some
already established RLDs from longer paths to
vacant shorter ones so as to reduce the network
resources consumption and therefore provides a
better network usage. It initiates the rerouting
procedure every time a timer expires
The Sequential Routing with Hybrid Lightpath
Rerouting algorithm (SeqRwHLR) described in
[19]. The SeqRwHLR algorithm establishes the
RLDs sequentially. When an incoming RLD
cannot be set up in the absence of path-free
wavelengths between its source and destination
nodes, it performs passive rerouting procedure
aiming hopefully at freeing a path-free
wavelength to service the new RLD.
Furthermore, it reroutes some active lightpaths
from longer paths to vacant shorter ones so as to
reduce the network resources consumption
when an existing RLD leaves and its lightpath is
released.

to traffic loading per node, r. From a first
observation of the curves presented in this figure we
can conclude that algorithms performing rerouting
(be it passive, active or hybrid) improve the rejection
ratio significantly compared to the no-rerouting case.
On the average, the rejection ratio is reduced up to

13% with the SeqRwHLR algorithm (respectively
12% for the 29-node network), 12% with the
SeqRwTBHLR algorithm (respectively 11.2% for
the 29-node network), 10.1% with the I-MTVSP
algorithm (respectively 10.4% for the 29-node
network), 5% with the SeqRwLR algorithm
(respectively 4% for the 29-node network) and 2%
with the Parallel MTV-WR algorithm (respectively
1.2% for the 29-node network).
We can also observe that the passive
rerouting algorithms (the Parallel MTV-WR and the
SeqRwLR algorithms) have the worst connection
requests rejection ratios. This is due to the fact that
active rerouting can utilize wavelength resources
more efficiently. In fact, these two algorithms
perform only passive rerouting whereas all the other
rerouting algorithms perform either active or hybrid
lightpath rerouting. Furthermore, performing only
WRR results in lower rejection ratio gain. Also,
performing lightpath rerouting when a new RLD is
to be blocked due to lack of network resources, may
lead to rerouting several existing RLDs. These RLDs
to be rerouted may use longer paths and hence may
consume more network resources. This may block
up the establishment of future arriving RLDs.
We also notice that hybrid lightpath
rerouting algorithms are able to yield the smallest
rejection ratios. This is due to the fact that hybrid
rerouting combines passive wavelength rerouting
and active lightpath rerouting and hence provides a
better blocking performance. Indeed, reducing
network resources consumption using active
rerouting and performing passive wavelength
rerouting when a new incoming RLD is to be
blocked due to lack of resources lead obviously to a
better rejection ratio.
Moreover, we notice that the SeqRwHLR
algorithm outperforms slightly the SeqRwTBHLR
algorithm. On the average, the former rejects 1%
(respectively 0.8% for the 29-node network) fewer
requests than the latter. This is mainly due to the fact
that the SeqRwHLR algorithm initiates the active
rerouting procedure at the departure of an existing
RLD when its network resources are released and
hence network resources reduction can be so
impressive resulting in establishing furthermore
incoming RLDs either without rerouting or by
performing passive wavelength rerouting. Whereas,
the SeqRwTBHLR algorithm launches the rerouting
procedure at some predefined time instants which do
no correspond necessarily to the departure times of
already established RLDs. This causes the failure of
the active rerouting procedure when no network
resources are released and eventually the failure of
the passive wavelength rerouting procedure. The
impact of this becomes especially severe when the
number of accepted RLDs increases in the network.
4.3. Rejection Ratio Gain
Fig 6 shows the average rejection ratio gain
versus the traffic loading per node. We notice that
the rejection ratio gain increases with the traffic load
before it falls down under heavy traffic load. In fact,
under low traffic load, our proposed algorithm still
manages to satisfy a maximum number of arriving
RLDs either by reducing network resources
consumption by rerouting dynamically some of the
established RLDs on shorter new physical paths or
by partially rearranging some already established
RLDs to set up a RLD to be rejected due to lack of
resources. Whereas when r increases, the average
rejection ratio gain falls down. This is because the
saturation regime of the network is achieved and it
becomes increasingly difficult to find new vacant
shorter paths, satisfying the rerouting threshold
constraint, on which the established RLDs can be
rerouted in order to set up more RLDs and
impossible to accommodate more RLDs even by
performing passive rerouting as no network
resources are left.
Note that the SeqRwTBHLR algorithm
achieves a maximum rejection ratio gain equal to
14.9% (respectively 14.6% for the 29-node network)
under the aforementioned simulation parameters.

From this Figure one may bring out the
following main conclusions.
On the average, the Parallel MTV-WR and
the TB-ALR algorithms require fewer RLDs to be
rerouted than the others algorithms. But let us
remind that the Parallel MTV-WR algorithm
performs only WRR to minimize the incurred
service disruption due to rerouting. On the opposite,
the TB-ALR algorithm reroutes existing RLDs on
new physical paths and its incurred disruption
should be important. These observations can explain
the fact that the TB-ALR algorithm outperforms the
Parallel MTV-WR which presents the worst
rejection ratio.
Also we notice that the SeqRwLR
algorithm requires to reroute more existing RLDs
than all the others algorithms whereas, this algorithm
reroutes only 7.5% of existing RLDs on new
physical paths. Therefore its incurred service
disruption period should be little.
Hybrid lightpath rerouting algorithms
require to reroute more RLDs than active lightpath
rerouting algorithm but reroutes fewer RLDs on new
physical paths than the TB-ALR. This is mainly due
to the imposed rerouting rule. Let us remind that an
active RLD rerouted by the active rerouting
procedure cannot be rerouted by the passive
rerouting procedure and vis-versa.
Our proposed algorithm reroutes less RLDs
on new physical paths than the SeqRwHLR
algorithm. This should hopefully lead to a shorter
service disruption period.
For small values of r, active lightpath
rerouting algorithm requires more active RLDs to be
rerouted than passive and hybrid rerouting
algorithms. Whereas hybrid and passive rerouting
algorithms reroute slightly the same number of
existing RLDs. Under high traffic load and unlike
passive and hybrid rerouting algorithms, the TB-
ALR algorithm reroutes fewer existing RLDs than
passive and hybrid rerouting algorithms. This can be
explained by the fact that when the network reaches
its saturation regime, it becomes difficult to reroute
an active RLD to a new path with hops lower
than the number of hops on its already used path.
That’s why hybrid rerouting algorithms have to
reroute more RLDs using WRR. Moreover, passive
rerouting algorithms require to reroute a large
number of existing RLDs under high traffic load
when it becomes difficult to set up an arriving RLD
without rerouting existing RLDs as the amount of
available network resources become very low.
V. CONCLUSION
In this paper, we proposed a simple hybrid
lightpath rerouting algorithm for WDM transparent
optical networks when considering random traffic.
Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm
provides important rejection ratio gain. Moreover, it
reroutes a minimum number of existing RLDs using
LRR. We hope, thus, that it achieves minimum
service disruption period.
Our forthcoming studies will investigate the
RWA problem with signal-quality constraint
applying hybrid rerouting.
