This paper proposes a design of SARPE(Speed and Azimuth based Routing Protocol for Emergency) system which transfers an emergency message rapidly and accurately by minimizing path disconnection with a vehicle's speed and azimuth in case of accidents. The SARPE system accomplishes the path search based on an azimuth in order to minimize unnecessary messages and workload. It also selects the paths with the lowest probability that the path disconnection will happen by using the difference between the speed(maximum, minimum) of intermediate nodes and the average speed of a source node and destination node. Therefore, this paper minimizes the path resetting work happening due to path disconnection and transfers an emergency message rapidly and accurately.

Multipath routing protocols with unmanned aerial vehicles have been proposed to improve reliability in tactical ad hoc networks. Most of existing studies tend to establish the paths with multiple metrics. However, these approaches suffer from link loss and congestion problems according to the network condition because they apply same metric for both ground and air path or employ the simple weight value to combine multiple metrics. To overcome this limitation, in this study, we propose new routing metrics for path over unmanned aerial vehicles and use the multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) method to determine the weight factors between multiple metrics. For the case studies, we extend the ad-hoc on-demand distance vector protocol and propose a strategy for modifying the route discovery and route recovery procedure. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism is able to achieve high end-to-end reliability and low end-to-end delay in tactical ad hoc networks.

The tactical network is system based on wireless networking technologies that ties together surveillance reconnaissance systems, precision strike systems and command and control systems. Several alternative paths exist in the network because it is connected as a grid to improve its survivability. In addition, the network topology changes frequently as forces and combatants change their network access points while conducting operations. However, most Internet routing standards have been designed for use in stable backbone networks. Therefore, tactical networks may exhibit a deterioration in performance when these standards are implemented. In this paper, we propose Priority based Multi-Path routing with Local Optimization(PMPLO) for a tactical backbone network. The PMPLO separately manages the global and local metrics. The global metric propagates to other routers through the use of a routing protocol, and it is used for a multi-path configuration that is guaranteed to be loop free. The local metric reflects the link utilization that is used to find an alternate path when congestion occurs, and it is managed internally only within each router. It also produces traffic that has a high priority privilege when choosing the optimal path. Finally, we conducted a simulation to verify that the PMPLO can effectively distribute the user traffic among available routers.

무선 ad-hoc 네트워크란 기반 시설의 도움 없이 노드들 간의 수평적인 통신을 제공하는 임시적인 네트워크이다. 이러한 네트워크 환경에서는 각 노드의 네트워크 창가 밀 이탈이 동적으로 가능하다. 현재 이러한 환경에서 높은 이동성을 지원하는 동시에 라우팅 오버헤드를 최소화하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존에 제안된 무선 ad-hoc 라우팅 프로토콜들은 부하균형 메커니즘을 지원하지 않으므로 특정 노드에 많은 부하가 발생할 수 있다. 이로 인해 종단 간 지연시간이 길어지며 네트워크의 신뢰성이 낮아질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제의 해결을 위해 각 노드가 자신의 부하를 측정하고, 경로 요청 시 노드의 부하 정보를 이용해서 부하가 적은 경로를 선택하도록 한다. 또한 데이터 전송 중에 해당 경로의 부하를 확인하여, 보조 경로를 이용하거나 새로운 경로를 검색하여 경로의 혼잡을 해결함으로써 종단 간 지연시간 및 네트워크의 신뢰성을 향상시키는 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법은 특정 노드에 라우팅 오버헤드가 집중되는 것을 방지하며 이로 인해 종단 간 지연시간을 줄이고 네트워크의 신뢰성 을 향상시킨다.

Vehicular Adhoc Network는 accident warning, road condition message와 같은 도로상의 정보를 vehicle-to-vehicle 통신을 통해 주어진 목적지까지 얼마나 빠르고 정확하게 전송하는 것이 주요 이슈이다. 무선 센서 네트워크의 많은 타입들 중에서 VANET 환경에 적합한 source 기반의 라우팅 프로토콜은 불안정한 이동 네트워크의 역할을 충실히 수행할 수 있다. Source 라우팅 기법들을 연구하는데 road topology와 map 정보가 사용되며, 본문에서는 도로의 상황과, 라우팅이 직접 수행되는 영역을 부분으로 나누어 각 영역에 속한 이동 노드를 파악하여 다중 경로 라우팅 방안을 제시하여 error 발생과 link fail에 대한 신속한 대처를 수행한다.

This paper proposes a new multipath-based routing protocol on MANETs with Fast-Recovery of failures. The proposed protocol establishes the primary and secondary paths between a source and a destination considering the end-to-end packet reception reliability of routes. The primary path is used to transmit messages, and the secondary path is used to recover the path when detecting failures on the primary path. If a node detects a link failure during message transmission, it can recover the path locally by switching from the primary to the secondary path. By allowing the intermediate nodes to recover locally the route failure, the proposed protocol can reduce the number of packet loss and the amount of control packets for setting up new paths. The simulation result using QualNet simulator shows that the proposed protocol was about 10-20% higher than other protocols in terms of end-to-end message delivery ratio and the fault recovery time in case of link fault was about 3 times faster than the other protocols.

Software defined network (SDN) can effectively improve the performance of traffic engineering and will be widely used in backbone networks. Therefore, new energy-saving schemes must take SDN into consideration; this action is extremely important owing to the rapidly increasing energy consumption in telecom and Internet service provider (ISP) networks. Meanwhile, the introduction of SDN in current networks must be incremental in most cases, for technical and economic reasons. During this period, operators must manage hybrid networks in which SDN and traditional protocols coexist. In this study, we investigate the energy-efficient traffic engineering problem in hybrid SDN/Internet protocol (IP) networks. First, we formulate the mathematical optimization model considering the SDN/IP hybrid routing mode. The problem is NP-hard; therefore, we propose a fast heuristic algorithm named hybrid energy-aware traffic engineering (HEATE) as a solution. In our proposed HEATE algorithm, the IP routers perform shortest-path routing by using distributed open shortest path first (OSPF) link weight optimization. The SDNs perform multipath routing with traffic-flow splitting managed by the global SDN controller. The HEATE algorithm determines the optimal setting for the OSPF link weight and the splitting ratio of SDNs. Thus, the traffic flow is aggregated onto partial links, and the underutilized links can be turned off to save energy. Based on computer simulation results, we demonstrate that our algorithm achieves a significant improvement in energy efficiency in hybrid SDN/IP networks.

With the development of sensing devices and wireless communication technologies, wireless sensor networks are composed of a large number of sensor nodes that are equipped with limited computing performance and restricted communication capabilities. Besides, the sensor nodes are deployed in hostile or unattended environments. Therefore, the wireless sensor networks are vulnerable to security. In particular, the fatal damage may be occurred when data are exposed in real world applications. Therefore, it is important for design requirements to be made so that wireless sensor networks provide the strong security. However, because the conventional security schemes in wired networks did not consider the limited performance of the sensor node, they are so hard to be applied to wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a secure multipath transmission scheme based on one-way hash functions in wireless sensor networks considering the limited performance of the wireless sensor nodes. The proposed scheme converts a sensor reading based on one of one-way hash functions MD5 in order to make it harder to be cracked and snooped. And then, our scheme splits the converted data and transfers the split data to the base station using multi-path routing. The experimental results show that our proposed scheme consumes the energy of just about 6% over the existing security scheme.

Although the dense interconnection datacenter networks (DCNs) (e.g. FatTree) provide multiple paths and high bisection bandwidth for each server pair, the single-path TCP (SPT) and ECMP which are widely used currently neither achieve high bandwidth utilization nor have good load balancing. Due to only one available transmission path, SPT cannot make full use of all available bandwidth, while ECMP's random hashing results in many collisions. In this paper, we present OFPT, an OpenFlow based Parallel Transport framework, which integrates precise routing and scheduling for better load balancing and higher network throughput. By adopting OpenFlow based centralized control mechanism, OFPT computes the optimal path and bandwidth provision for each flow according to the global network view. To guarantee high throughput, OFPT dynamically schedules flows with Seamless Flow Migration Mechanism (SFMM), which can avoid packet loss in flow rerouting. Finally, we test OFPT on Mininet and implement it in a real testbed. The experimental results show that the average network throughput in OFPT is up to 97.5% of bisection bandwidth, which is higher than ECMP by 36%. Besides, OFPT decreases the average flow completion time (AFCT) and achieves better scalability.
