We present a force-based genetic algorithm for self-spreading mobile nodes uniformly over a geographical area. Wireless mobile nodes adjust their speed and direction using a genetic algorithm, where each mobile node exchanges its genetic information of speed and direction encoded in its chromosomes with the neighboring nodes. Simulation experiments show encouraging results for the performance of our force-based genetic algorithm with respect to normalized area coverage.
Traffic between a source-destination pair is then split between the primary and secondary LSPs using an ABR-like explicit-rate feedback gathered from the network. Taking into consideration the packet reordering effect of packet-based load balancing schemes, we propose a novel traffic splitting mechanism that operates on a per-flow basis. We show using a variety of scenarios that deploying Bow.hased multipath traffic engineering not only provides significantly and consistently better throughput than that of a single path hut is also void of any packet reorderings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
