Route-over routing (ROR) and mesh-under routing (MUR) are the two schemes presented by 6LoWPAN working group. In this paper, the optimal fragmentation schemes are proposed to improve the end-to-end packet delivery rate (PDR) and reduce energy consumption in packet delivery for ROR and MUR. The proposed schemes are able to find the optimal number of fragments so that energy consumption is minimized while keeping PDR larger than a preset probability. Numerical results show that the proposed schemes are energy efficient while guaranteeing the preset PDR.","PeriodicalId":392558,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128111734","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}

Butterfly network model depicts the basic component unit of wireless local area networks (WLANs).

According to the differences of numbers of the buffered packets for upstream flows in the coding node's FIFO output queue, it can increase coding opportunity as largely as possible by dynamically adjusting the contention windows of the MAC layers of upstream nodes, thus improves network performance. Performance analysis and simulation test proved that MBNC can greatly improve network throughput.","PeriodicalId":392558,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133460322","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}

In which, we take the three basic actions: following, retweeting and commenting into consideration. Based on the weight and networks of them, we construct a weighted network, then employ Weighted PageRank and Hypertext Induced Topic Selection algorithm to calculate user influence.

The collection and analysis of user information is a core in the management system of UN. However, users' high-dimensional data affects the performance greatly because it brings in a long response delay when matching user information with strategy rules. An efficient dimensionality reduction method is important to improve the matching efficiency on high-dimensional data. This paper introduces a statistic computational method based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for the reduction of user information. The method converts multiple indicators into fewer overall indicators by taking the advantage of the relations among attributes. Then, we apply this algorithm in the user information management system of UN and make several experiments to evaluate and analyze its performance. Experimental results show that the time of querying and matching is reduced by the proposed method on the condition of not losing much information of original attributes. It proves that this method reduces the dimension effectively and can be applied in the high-dimensionality user information management system.","PeriodicalId":392558,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127833240","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}

With the comparison of the two predicted values with the real measured one, the Particle Filter shows high efficiency and better accurate than Extended Kalman Filter. The simulation results show that the accuracy of PF is high. The budget result of PF is more close to the real values.
