In this study, we construct a simulated bootstrap platform to provide the discussion of open challenges and solutions for deploying IoT in Future Internet. The service providers and operators can estimate their migration to IoT by referring to our experience and experiment results.","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116110074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, a speculative algorithm is proposed to choose the next coordinator of association. In this paper, we focus on the consumed energy average and the changing coordinator procedure delay average of moving nodes in the network.","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133015455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Physical-Layer Network Coding (PNC) is a promising technique that can improve the achievable data flow rates through higher packet transmission rates, thereby increasing the overall throughput. In this paper, we study the performance of the PNC transmission technique in unidirectional linear flow networks, and compare it with that of the traditional transmission technique. We first derive the bit-error rate (BER) that the PNC transmission scheme achieves, and then using that, we evaluate the end-to-end flow throughput of unidirectional flows. Our results show that PNC has a great potential for enhancing the achievable throughput, especially under medium to high signal-to-noise ratios. We also validate the derived BER results using simulations.","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130524306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Supposing the data stored in the storage devices is of high duplication and similarity, the system administrator cannot guarantee that every node (peer) in the cloud computing system can maintain the best status for data integration. Moreover, when the number of nodes keeps increasing, the number of files will be multiplied, which results to not only the system administrator's heavy workload, but also the waste of hardware resources. Finally, the flexibility and quickness of cloud storage system is gone, and what left is a lot of duplicate and redundant data. Therefore, in order to avoid the system burden caused by duplicate data, we propose novel data center management architecture: Index Name Server (INS), which integrates de-duplication and access point selection optimization techniques to enhance the performance of the cloud storage system. With the attempt to attain load balancing, we use several specific INS parameters to dynamically monitor the parameters, like IP information and busy level index, to avoid the network congestion or the long waiting time during data transmission.","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"401 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131714494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

That has similar performance and almost the same overall structure as those of an OFDMA system. Its advantage over OFDMA is that the SC-FDMA signal has lower peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). SC-FDMA has drawn great attention as an attractive alternative to OFDMA, especially in the uplink communications where lower PAPR greatly benefits the mobile terminal in terms of transmitted power efficiency. In this paper, we have given the proposal of Non Binary SC-FDMA, replacing binary number by octal number system. The most prominent result that we have obtained using non-binary SC-FDMA, compared to binary case is further reduction of BER and peak power of SC-FDMA signals which have been shown by mathematical analysis, and are simulated for different channels using Interleaved FDMA (IFDMA), and localized FDMA (LFDMA).","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115382538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the feasibility conditions of interference alignment, we have established equivalent conditions involving ranks of the interference and desired signal matrices and have proposed optimization of beamforming and zero-forcing matrices using ranks. Since minimization of rank of a matrix is a non-convex problem, it is approximated by a convex envelop of the rank which is the nuclear norm of the matrix. To maximize sum degrees of freedom for K users, we minimize the nuclear norm of sum of all interferences or simply minimizing the maximum nuclear norm of all interference matrices from all users. The nuclear norm of the desired signal matrix is constrained to be equal to the desired degrees of freedom, which guarantees a full rank matrix. We have developed the necessary and sufficient Kuhn-Tucker conditions for the optimization problems. We have also shown the convexity of our proposed optimization problems.","PeriodicalId":281865,"journal":{"name":"2012 Computing, Communications and Applications Conference","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121818619","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A clear dependence of the absorbed dose with the temperature was observed for the iron salt, in particular at liquid nitrogen temperature. This model has a temperature-dependent source term that is a linear function of the radiation dose intensity. Finally, the agreement of the theoretical predictions with the experimental results suggests that the model is reliable for predicting the behavior of the frozen solutions not addressed experimentally in this paper for dose evaluations.

And the users' energy consumption is reduced by decreasing the transition times between sleeping and active status in the use of discontinuous reception (DRX) mechanism which is applied for terminal's battery power saving in LTE.
