Using traffic flow for cluster formation in VANETMohammadAlmalag
The document presents an approach for cluster formation in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) based on traffic flow. The approach uses sensors like GPS and lane detection to calculate metrics like lane weight, network connectivity level, average distance level, and average velocity level to determine a clusterhead level. Simulations of the approach on a 3km highway with two intersections showed it produced more stable clusters than other algorithms, with longer-lasting clusterheads over varying transmission ranges and speed limits. The approach performs better than other clusterhead selection algorithms for VANETs.
GreenSwirl: Combining Traffic Signal Control and Route Guidance for Reducing ...Naoki Shibata
Jiaxing Xu, Weihua Sun, Naoki Shibata and Minoru Ito : "GreenSwirl: Combining Traffic Signal Control and Route Guidance for Reducing Traffic Congestion," in Proc. of IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference 2014 (IEEE VNC 2014), pp. 179-186.
Serious traffic congestion is a major social problem in large cities. Inefficient setting of traffic signal cycles, especially, is one of the main causes of congestion. GreenWave is a method for controlling traffic signals which allows one-way traffic to pass through a series of intersections without being stopped by a red light. GreenWave was tested in several cities around the world, but the results were not satisfactory. Two of the problems with GreenWave are that it still stops the crossing traffic, and it forms congestion in the traffic turning into or out of the crossing streets. To solve these problems, we propose a method of controlling traffic signals, GreenSwirl, in combination with a route guidance method, GreenDrive. GreenSwirl controls traffic signals to enable a smooth flow of traffic through signals times to turn green in succession and through non-stop circular routes through the city. The GreenWave technology is extended thereby. We also use navigation systems to optimize the overall control of the city's traffic. We did a simulation using the traffic simulator SUMO and the road network of Manhattan Island in New York. We confirmed that our method shortens the average travel time by 10%-60%, even when not all cars on the road are equipped to use this system.

Efforts Of Singapore In Controlling Traffic Congestion & PollutionANAND G
Congestion pricing is proposed as the main solution to control traffic congestion in cities. It involves surcharging drivers during peak traffic periods to reduce demand. The objectives are to make drivers aware of the costs imposed by congestion and to pay for the additional congestion they create. Critics argue it is an additional tax and can negatively impact businesses. Electronic road pricing systems in Singapore have been successful in reducing traffic by 13% and increasing average speeds by 20% during operational hours.

Purchasing power parity a unit root, cointegration and var analysis in emergi...Giwrgos Loukopoulos
The document analyzes the validity of the absolute purchasing power parity (PPP) hypothesis for 4 advanced and 4 emerging countries from 1993 to 2014. It applies unit root tests, cointegration tests, and vector autoregression (VAR) models including impulse response functions and variance decomposition. The main findings are: 1) Unit root tests show PPP may hold for some countries and methods but not others. 2) Cointegration tests do not support PPP for any country. 3) VAR models show real exchange rate shocks take 9.76-77.39 months to halve and half-life estimates vary widely by country.
Creational patterns deal with object creation and aim to create objects in a suitable manner. There are three main creational patterns: the factory pattern, which provides a consistent interface for creating properly configured objects; the abstract factory pattern, which is a factory for factories and handles more complex situations; and the singleton pattern, which ensures a single instance of an object and consistency of data by restricting object instantiation.

Representational State Transfer (REST) is an architectural style for distributed hypermedia systems like the World Wide Web. The key goals of REST include scalability, generality of interfaces, independent deployment of components, and use of intermediary components. REST uses a stateless, client-server architecture and relies on standard HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE to allow clients to access and modify resources identified by URIs. Resources are representations that can be acted on and transferred between components. [END SUMMARY]
This document discusses Cognitive Load Theory and how it relates to the usability of electronic health records (EHRs). It explains that cognitive load is the mental effort required for problem-solving and learning. Working memory is limited, so cognitive load must not exceed working memory capacity. The cognitive load imposed by EHR use comes from the intrinsic load of clinical tasks as well as the extraneous load of poor interface design. The document provides examples of how EHR interfaces can be improved by reducing extraneous load through simpler layouts, predictable structures, and workflows that match clinical thinking processes. It also discusses managing cognitive load by breaking large tasks into smaller chunks and limiting new learning to times outside of patient visits.
Can't wait for 2010? Here's a number of web design trends to prepare yourself already. Presentation for Boondoggle & Rabobank Corporate Communications.
In this presentation by Lucid Smart Pill we discuss the limitations of the working memory. Cognitive Load refers to the amount of brain power required to learn new information, solve a problem or complete a task. Reducing or minimising cognitive load will help people solve problems or perform tasks more with more ease & less strain, usually resulting in more desirable outcomes.

The document discusses congestion in data networks. It defines congestion as occurring when the number of packets being transmitted approaches the network's handling capacity. This can cause packets to be lost if buffers fill up. Mechanisms for congestion control include backpressure from congested nodes to slow down incoming traffic, choke packets sent to sources to cut back transmission, and implicit or explicit signaling of congestion levels to sources. Frame relay and ATM networks employ various techniques for traffic management, policing, and scheduling to control congestion and meet quality of service guarantees for different connections.
ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is a connection-oriented networking technology that transmits data in fixed-size cells and can support different types of data and applications with quality of service guarantees. ATM uses virtual connections identified by virtual path and channel identifiers to transport cells through a network of ATM switches. The ATM architecture includes physical, ATM, and adaptation layers to encapsulate data for transmission and ensure interoperability between network elements.

Congestion Control in Computer Networks - ATM and TCPAttila Balazs
This document discusses congestion control in networks using ATM and TCP protocols. It defines network congestion and outlines various congestion control possibilities including admission control, traffic access control, packet scheduling, buffer management, and flow control. It then describes the key concepts and congestion control mechanisms for ATM, including call admission control, the GCRA algorithm, and use of resource management cells. It also outlines TCP congestion control using additive increase/multiplicative decrease and slow start/fast retransmit, and evaluates the pros and cons of ATM and TCP approaches.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a cell-switching and multiplexing technology that uses fixed-length packets called cells to carry different types of traffic like voice, video, and data. ATM works by segmenting data into these fixed-size cells which are then transmitted through virtual connections set up across an ATM network and reassembled at their destination. It provides benefits like high performance, Quality of Service guarantees, and the ability to handle different traffic types.
Traffic management provides optimal utilization of network resources by managing network traffic and providing service guarantees to user connections. It includes functions such as traffic contract management, traffic shaping, traffic policing, priority control, flow control, and congestion control. Connection admission control is used to determine whether new connection requests can be accepted while ensuring sufficient resources and quality of service for existing connections. Traffic shaping techniques such as leaky bucket algorithm alter traffic characteristics to make them more predictable and conforming to network requirements.
This document summarizes key points from Chapter 3 of the textbook "Wireless Mobile Computer Networks" by William Stallings. It discusses different types of communication networks including LANs, WANs, and MANs. It also covers circuit switching versus packet switching, components of public telecommunications networks, asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), and examples of ATM service categories.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a streamlined packet transfer interface that transfers data in discrete chunks like packet switching. It uses fixed size packets called cells with minimal error and flow control. ATM supports multiple logical connections over a single physical interface and uses virtual channel connections (VCCs) and virtual path connections (VPCS) to bundle connections. ATM provides different service categories like constant bit rate (CBR) for fixed rate applications and real-time variable bit rate (rt-VBR) for time sensitive variable rate applications.

ATM is a connection-oriented, high-speed, low-delay switching and transmission technology that uses short and fixed-size packets, called cells, to transport information.
The document discusses various topics related to congestion control and quality of service in computer networks. It defines congestion and explains congestion control techniques like open-loop prevention using policies around retransmission, windows, acknowledgements, and admission. It also covers closed-loop removal techniques like back pressure, choke points, and implicit/explicit signaling. Quality of service techniques like scheduling, shaping, and reservation are explained. Integrated services and differentiated services models for providing QoS in IP networks are summarized.
This document discusses different types of communication networks including traditional and high-speed LANs and WANs, as well as MANs. It describes key characteristics of these networks such as speed, distance, scope, and data rates. The document also covers switching techniques used in networks including circuit switching, packet switching, and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). It provides examples and diagrams to illustrate how these different switching techniques work.
Frame Relay is a virtual circuit wide-area network technology designed in the late 1980s that operates at the physical and data link layers. It allows for bursty data transmission and higher transmission speeds than traditional WANs. Frame Relay uses virtual circuits identified by a Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI) to transmit data between nodes. It supports both permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) and switched virtual circuits (SVCs). Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a network protocol that transmits data in fixed length cells over virtual paths and circuits to provide connection-oriented services between endpoints.

XPDS13: On Paravirualizing TCP - Congestion Control on Xen VMs - Luwei Cheng,...The Linux Foundation
While datacenters are increasingly adopting VMs to provide elastic cloud services, they still rely on traditional TCP for congestion control. In this talk, I will first show that VM scheduling delays can heavily contaminate RTTs sensed by VM senders, preventing TCP from correctly learning the physical network condition. Focusing on the incast problem, which is commonly seen in large-scale distributed data processing such as MapReduce and web search, I find that the solutions that have been developed for *physical* clusters fall short in a Xen *virtual* cluster. Second, I will provide a concrete understanding of the problem, and reveal that the situations that when the sending VM is preempted versus when the receiving VM is preempted, are different. Third, I will introduce my recent attempts on paravirtualizing TCP to overcome the negative effect caused by VM scheduling delays.

The document discusses various techniques for congestion control in computer networks. It describes how congestion occurs when the packet handling capacity of the network is exceeded. Explicit signaling techniques notify end systems of growing congestion so they can reduce transmission rates. Implicit signaling relies on end systems detecting increased delays or packet drops as implicit indicators of congestion. Common approaches include backpressure, choke packets, and adding congestion information to packet headers. Frame relay and ATM networks employ techniques such as committed information rates and explicit congestion notification to manage traffic and avoid congestion collapse.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

6. Key Performance Issues-Key Performance Issues-
Latency/Speed EffectsLatency/Speed Effects
E.g. data rate 150Mbps
Takes (53 x 8 bits)/(150 x 106
) =2.8 x 10-6
seconds to
insert a cell
Transfer time depends on number of intermediate
switches, switching time and propagation delay.
Assuming no switching delay and speed of light
propagation, round trip delay of 48 x 10-3
sec across USA
A dropped cell notified by return message will arrive
after source has transmitted N further cells
N=(48 x 10-3

characteristics
Virtual path connection (VPC) are
groupings of virtual channel connections
(VCC)
30. ApplicationsApplications
User-to-user applications
– VPC between UNI pair
– No knowledge of QoS for individual VCC
– User checks that VPC can take VCCs’ demands
User-to-network applications
– VPC between UNI and network node
– Network aware of and accommodates QoS of VCCs

Peak to peak cell delay variation
All affected by resources devoted to VPC
If VCC goes through multiple VPCs,
performance depends on consecutive VPCs and
on node performance
– VPC performance depends on capacity of VPC and
traffic characteristics of VCCs
– VCC related function depends on
switching/processing speed and priority
32. VCCs and VPCs ConfigurationVCCs and VPCs Configuration
33. Allocation of Capacity to VPCAllocation of Capacity to VPC
Aggregate peak demand
– May set VPC capacity (data rate) to total of VCC peak rates
Each VCC can give QoS to accommodate peak demand
VPC capacity may not be fully used
Statistical multiplexing
– VPC capacity >= average data rate of VCCs but < aggregate
peak demand
– Greater CDV and CTD
– May have greater CLR
– More efficient use of capacity
– For VCCs requiring lower QoS
– Group VCCs of similar traffic together
34. Connection Admission ControlConnection Admission Control
User must specify service required in both
directions

Two levels requested by user
– Priority for individual cell indicated by CLP
bit in header
– If two levels are used, traffic parameters for
both flows specified
High priority CLP = 0
All traffic CLP = 0 + 1
– May improve network resource allocation
37. Usage Parameter ControlUsage Parameter Control

If two level cell loss priority cell with:
– CLP=0 and conforms passes
– CLP=0 non-compliant for CLP=0 traffic but compliant for
CLP=0+1 is tagged and passes
– CLP=0 non-compliant for CLP=0 and CLP=0+1 traffic
discarded
– CLP=1 compliant for CLP=0+1 passes
– CLP=1 non-compliant for CLP=0+1 discarded
48. Selective Cell DiscardSelective Cell Discard
Starts when network, at point beyond

Discard low priority cells to protect high
priority cells
No distinction between cells labelled low
priority by source and those tagged by
UPC
49. Traffic ShapingTraffic Shaping
GCRA is a form of traffic policing
– Flow of cells regulated
– Cells exceeding performance level tagged or
discarded
Traffic shaping used to smooth traffic flow
– Reduce cell clumping
– Fairer allocation of resources
– Reduced average delay
51. Explicit Forward CongestionExplicit Forward Congestion
IndicationIndication
Essentially same as frame relay
If node experiencing congestion, set
forward congestion indication is cell
headers
– Tells users that congestion avoidance should
be initiated in this direction
– User may take action at higher level
52. Congestion Control Algorithms-Congestion Control Algorithms-
Binary FeedbackBinary Feedback
Use only EFCI, CI and NI bits
Switch monitors buffer utilization
When congestion approaches, binary notification
– Set EFCI on forward data cells or CI or NI on FRM or
BRM
Three approaches to which to notify
– Single FIFO queue
– Multiple queues
– Fair share notification
53. Single FIFO QueueSingle FIFO Queue
When buffer use exceeds threshold (e.g. 80%)
– Switch starts issuing binary notifications
– Continues until buffer use falls below threshold
– Can have two thresholds
One for start and one for stop
Stops continuous on/off switching
– Biased against connections passing through more
switches
54. Multiple QueuesMultiple Queues
Separate queue for each VC or group of VCs
Separate threshold on each queue
Only connections with long queues get binary
notifications
– Fair
– Badly behaved source does not affect other VCs
– Delay and loss behaviour of individual VCs separated
Can have different QoS on different VCs
55. Fair ShareFair Share
Selective feedback or intelligent marking
Try to allocate capacity dynamically
E.g.
fairshare =(target rate)/(number of connections)
Mark any cells where CCR>fairshare
56. Explicit Rate FeedbackExplicit Rate Feedback
SchemesSchemes
Compute fair share of capacity for each VC
Determine current load or congestion
Compute explicit rate (ER) for each connection
and send to source
Three algorithms
– Enhanced proportional rate control algorithm
EPRCA
– Explicit rate indication for congestion avoidance
ERICA
– Congestion avoidance using proportional control
CAPC
57. Enhanced Proportional RateEnhanced Proportional Rate
Control Algorithm(EPRCA)Control Algorithm(EPRCA)
Switch tracks average value of current load on
each connection
– Mean allowed cell rate (MARC)
– MACR(I)=(1-α)*(MACR(I-1) + α*CCR(I)
– CCR(I) is CCR field in Ith FRM
– Typically α=1/16
– Bias to past values of CCR over current
– Gives estimated average load passing through switch
– If congestion, switch reduces each VC to no more
than DPF*MACR
DPF=down pressure factor, typically 7/8
ER<-min[ER, DPF*MACR]
58. Load FactorLoad Factor
Adjustments based on load factor
LF=Input rate/target rate
– Input rate measured over fixed averaging
interval
– Target rate slightly below link bandwidth (85
to 90%)
– LF>1 congestion threatened
VCs will have to reduce rate
59. Explicit Rate Indication forExplicit Rate Indication for
Congestion Avoidance (ERICA)Congestion Avoidance (ERICA)
Attempt to keep LF close to 1
Define:
fairshare = (target rate)/(number of connections)
VCshare = CCR/LF
= (CCR/(Input Rate)) *(Target Rate)
ERICA selectively adjusts VC rates
– Total ER allocated to connections matches target rate
– Allocation is fair
– ER = max[fairshare, VCshare]
– VCs whose VCshare is less than their fairshare get
greater increase
60. Congestion Avoidance UsingCongestion Avoidance Using
Proportional Control (CAPC)Proportional Control (CAPC)
If LF<1 fairshare<-fairshare*min[ERU,1+(1-LF)*Rup]
If LF>1 fairshare<-fairshare*min[ERU,1-(1-LF)*Rdn]
ERU>1, determines max increase
Rup between 0.025 and 0.1, slope parameter
Rdn, between 0.2 and 0.8, slope parameter
ERF typically 0.5, max decrease in allottment of fair share
If fairshare < ER value in RM cells, ER<-fairshare
Simpler than ERICA
Can show large rate oscillations if RIF (Rate increase factor) too
high
Can lead to unfairness
61. GRF OverviewGRF Overview
Simple as UBR from end system view
– End system does no policing or traffic shaping
– May transmit at line rate of ATM adaptor
Modest requirements on ATM network
No guarantee of frame delivery
Higher layer (e.g. TCP) react to congestion causing
dropped frames
User can reserve cell rate capacity for each VC
– Application can send at min rate without loss
Network must recognise frames as well as cells
If congested, network discards entire frame
All cells of a frame have same CLP setting
– CLP=0 guaranteed delivery, CLP=1 best efforts
64. Tagging and PolicingTagging and Policing
Tagging identifies frames that conform to
contract and those that don’t
– CLP=1 for those that don’t
Set by network element doing conformance check
May be network element or source showing less important
frames
– Get lower QoS in buffer management and scheduling
– Tagged cells can be discarded at ingress to ATM
network or subsequent switch
– Discarding is a policing function
65. Buffer ManagementBuffer Management
Treatment of cells in buffers or when arriving
and requiring buffering
If congested (high buffer occupancy) tagged cells
discarded in preference to untagged
Discard tagged cell to make room for untagged
cell
May buffer per-VC
Discards may be based on per queue thresholds
66. SchedulingScheduling
Give preferential treatment to untagged cells
Separate queues for each VC
– Per VC scheduling decisions
– E.g. FIFO modified to give CLP=0 cells higher
priority
Scheduling between queues controls outgoing
rate of VCs
– Individual cells get fair allocation while meeting
traffic contract
68. GFR Conformance DefinitionGFR Conformance Definition
UPC function
– UPC monitors VC for traffic conformance
– Tag or discard non-conforming cells
Frame conforms if all cells in frame conform
– Rate of cells within contract
Generic cell rate algorithm PCR and CDVT specified for
connection
– All cells have same CLP
– Within maximum frame size (MFS)
69. QoS Eligibility TestQoS Eligibility Test
Test for contract conformance
– Discard or tag non-conforming cells
Looking at upper bound on traffic
– Determine frames eligible for QoS guarantee
Under GFR contract for VC
Looking at lower bound for traffic
Frames are one of:
– Nonconforming: cells tagged or discarded
– Conforming ineligible: best efforts
– Conforming eligible: guaranteed delivery
