Asynchronous neighbor discovery with unreliable link in wireless mobile networks
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
In wireless mobile networks, neighbor discovery is fundamental to many useful applications. The limited energy of mobile devices stresses the need for effective and energy-saving asynchronous neighbor discovery protocols. The neighbor discovery would fail due to some uncontrollable factors such as hardware errors or sudden interruptions, which are ...
Sensing and monitoring of information diffusion in complex online social networks
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
Sensing and monitoring information diffusion in online social networks is a complex problem of prominent importance, typically requiring significant sensing resources to address it properly. In this paper, we propose an inference approach for an information diffusion process where information is considered to belong to different classes, characteri...
An efficient coverage hole-healing algorithm for area-coverage improvements in mobile sensor networks
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
Maximizing network coverage is among the key factors in designing efficient sensor-deployment algorithms for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this study, we consider a WSN in which mobile sensor nodes (SNs) are randomly deployed over a two-dimensional region with the existence of coverage holes due to the absence of any SNs. To improve the netwo...
Hybrid-triggered state feedback H∞ control for networked control systems with stochastic nonlinearity and quantization
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
This paper is concerned with the state feedback H∞ control problem for hybrid-triggered networked control systems (NCSs) with stochastic nonlinearity and state quantization. In order to establish a higher utilization of the network resources, a hybrid-triggered transmission scheme (HTTS) and measurement size reduction scheme are introduced. Firstly...
An approach of robust power control for cognitive radio networks based on chance constraints
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
The changing and fluctuations of channel gains are inevitable in wireless communication. In this paper, a robust power control scheme for cognitive radio networks is proposed with consideration of uncertain channel gains. With the uncertainty, an optimal power control problem is formulated, which keeps the outage probability both of cognitive and p...
MiFo: A novel edge network integration framework for fog computing
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
Fog computing has been recently proposed to move certain cloud computing services down to edge networks especially for mobile applications, aiming at improving the throughput and delay through the collaboration of mobile devices at edge wireless networks. Yet, the current edge wireless networks are the bottleneck that prohibits mobile devices to ef...

A budget constrained scheduling algorithm for executing workflow application in infrastructure as a service clouds
Published in Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications
Cloud computing technology, which is a new model of service provisioning in distributed systems, has been raised as a way to execute workflow applications. To profit from this technology for executing workflow applications, it is necessary to develop workflow scheduling algorithms that consider different QoS parameters such as execution time and co...
