A new online multi-layer integrated routing (MLIR) scheme that combines IP (electrical) layer routing with WDM (optical) layer routing is investigated. It is a highly efficient and cost-effective routing scheme viable for the next generation integrated optical Internet. A new simplified weighted graph model for the integrated optical Internet consisted of optical routers with multi-granularity optical-electrical hybrid switching capability is firstly proposed. Then, based on the proposed graph model, we develop an online integrated routing scheme called differentiated weighted fair algorithm (DWFA) employing adaptive admission control (routing) strategies with the motivation of service/bandwidth differentiation, which can jointly solve multi-layer routing problem by simply applying the minimal weighted path computation algorithm. The major objective of DWFA is fourfold: 1) Quality of service (QoS) routing for traffic requests with various priorities; 2) blocking fairness for traffic requests with various bandwidth granularities; 3) adaptive routing according to the policy parameters from service provider; 4) lower computational complexity. Simulation results show that DWFA performs better than traditional overlay routing schemes such as optical-first-routing (OFR) and electrical-first-routing (EFR), in terms of traffic blocking ratio, traffic blocking fairness, average traffic logical hop counts, and global network resource utilization. It has been proved that the DWFA is a simple, comprehensive, and practical scheme of integrated routing in optical Internet for service providers.

Recently, many active queue management (AQM) algorithms have been proposed to address the performance degradation. of end-to-end congestion control under tail-drop (TD) queue management at Internet routers. However, these AQM algorithms show performance improvement only for limited network environments, and are insensitive to dynamically changing network situations. In this paper, we propose an adaptive queue management algorithm, called PID-controller, that uses proportional-integral-derivative (PID) feedback control to remedy these weak-Dalles of existing AQM proposals. The PID-controller is able to detect and control congestion adaptively and proactively to dynamically changing network environments using incipient as well as current congestion indications. A simulation study over a wide range of IP traffic conditions shows that PID-controller outperforms other AQM algorithms such as Random Early Detection (RED) [3] and Proportional-Integral (PI) controller [9] in terms of queue length dynamics, packet loss rates, and link utilization.

The WiMedia alliance has specified a distributed medium access control (WiMedia MAC) protocol based on ultra wideband (UWB) for high data rate WPANs (HR-WPANs). The merits of WiMedia MAC such as distributed nature and high data rate make it a favorite candidate in HR-WPAN. Although QoS parameters such as the range of service rates are provided to a traffic stream, the WiMedia MAC is not able to use the QoS parameters and to determine or adjust a service rate using the QoS parameters for the traffic stream. In this paper, we propose a fair and adaptive resource allocation method that allocates time slots to isochronous streams according to QoS parameters and the current traffic load condition in a fully distributed manner. Although the traffic load condition changes, each device independently recognizes the changes and calculates fair and maximum allowable service rates for traffic streams. From the numerical and simulation results, it is proved that the proposed method achieves high capacity of traffic streams and fair QoS provisioning under various traffic load condition.

In this paper, we propose a new neural Buffered Leaky Bucket algorithm for preventing the degradation of network performance caused by congestion and dealing with the traffic congestion in ATM networks. We networks. We justify the validity of the suggested method through performance comparison in aspects of cell loss rate and mean transfer delay under a variety of traffic conditions requiring the different QoS(Quality of Service). also, the cell scheduling algorithms such as DWRR and DWEDF used for multiplexing the incoming traffics are induced to get the delay time of the traffics fairly. The network congestion information from cell scheduler is used to control the predicted traffic loss rate of Neural Leaky Bucket, and token generation rate is changed by the predicted values. The prediction of traffic loss rate by neural networks can effectively reduce the cell loss rate and the cell transfer delay of next incoming cells and be applied to other traffic control systems. Computer simulation results performed for traffic prediction show that QoSs of the various kinds of traffics are increased.

An Adaptive Usage Parameter Control(UPC) mechanism using a Variable Token Pool(VTP) which is kind of preventive traffic control in the Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM) networks is described. The VTP mechanism can monitor violations of the average bit rate and burst duration as well as peak bit rate for the ON-OFF type traffic. The VTP can vary the token pool size by monitoring burst duration and silence duration for a long term. It also improves the sensitivity against the violation of burst duration and average bit rate and enables to response for the violating traffic situation quickly. The variable token pool size is varied in step size by every burst duration and silence duration. Two important parameters for controlling token pool size are Down_size and Up_size. We compare the performance of LB and JW mechanism with the proposed VTP mechanism by computer simulations. We have known that the proposed method is more effective than the previous mechanisms. It is shown that the cell loss rate of the VTP quite depends on the value of Down_size and Up_size. The two parameters should be decided as a propr value according to traffic situations.

In general, because error rate of wireless link is higher than that of wired link, DLC layer protocol for wired network with low error rate is not proper for wireless environments. In addition, the conventional DLC layer protocol for wireless network is optimized for the low-speed data service, so it is difficult to use conventional DLC protocol in the current mobile communication environments handing high-speed and multimedia services. Therefore, a DLC layer protocol that is suitable to current wireless communication environments is required. In this paper, we propose a novel error control scheme that supports a variety of traffic attribute and is applicable to high-speed and multimedia data service in WATM. The proposed scheme provides enhanced throughput performance for real-time traffic by using modified ASR ARQ without ACK and reduces loss rate by using FEC in the case of high error condition. Also, for non real-time traffic, the use of ASR ARQ without ACK enhances throughput performance and delay time is decreased by using FEC in the case of high error rate channel. As a result of simulation, the proposed scheme has better performance than conventional ASR ARQ protocol in view of delay and throughput.

The Japanese developed the first Car navigation system in 1981 with the advent of Honda, which was known as the car inertial navigation system. Now days, It is possible to search the shortest route to and from places and arrival time using the internet via cell phone to the driver based on GIS and GPS. However, even with a good navigation system, it losses the shortest route when there is an average speed of the vehicle being between S-15 kilometers. Therefore, in order to improve the vehicle waiting time and average vehicle speed, we are suggesting an optimal green time algorithm using fuzzy adaptive control, where there are different traffic intersection lengths, and lanes. In this paper, to be able to assist the driver and forecast the optimal traffic information with regards to the road conditions; dangerous roads, construction work and estimation of arrival time at their destination using internet.

This paper proposes a control-based approach for duty cycle adaptation in wireless sensor networks. The proposed method, QCon, controls duty cycle through queue management in order to achieve high performance under variable traffic rates. To minimize energy consumption while meeting delay requirement, we design a feedback controller, which adapts the sleeping time according to dynamically changing traffic by constraining the queue length at a predetermined value. Based on control theory, we analyze the adaptive behavior of QCon and derive conditions for system stability. Results from asymptotic analysis and simulations indicate that QCon outperforms existing scheduling protocol by achieving more energy savings while satisfying delay requirement.

In this paper, a multiaccess network protocol for high-speed communication is proposed, which enables multimedia sevices with integrating the existing networks. We examine the traffic control mechanisms and configurations for the network architecture and compare with various protocols which are suitable to high speed LAN/MAN and propose an adaptive access control mechanism. ATMR has low channel utilization due to window size reset time, and that MetaRing is very sensitive over the change of traffic load. This suggested protocol, however, has quite a good performance for that situation by adding adaptive parameter condition. This mechanism may introduce a model of small-scaled Broadband Integrated Service Network and be used as an internetworking system for the ATM network.

Recently, according to traffic accident statistics, traffic accidents occurring at night are as frequent as those during daytime, but their death rate is 1.5 times higher than that of daytime traffic accidents. This problem originates that the insufficient range of vision security of a driver causes the inappropriate accident confrontation. Therefore, in this paper, a microcontroller-based digital control method for the superior performance in headlight system is presented for optimal control that can adapt complex transient state, steady state and various environments. Specially in vehicles# headlight, its fundamental purpose is to implement the artificial headlight system which automatically controls the lighting patterns most adaptive to driving, road and weather conditions. Therefore we aimed at the development of headlight system, focused on the implementation of an artificial vehicle, of more advanced convenience and safety for drivers.
