Upon the occurrence of a phenomenon of interest in a wireless sensor network, multiple sensors may be activated, leading to data implosion and redundancy. Data aggregation and/or fusion techniques exploit spatio-temporal correlation among sensory data to reduce traffic load and mitigate congestion. However, this is often at the expense of loss in Information Quality (IQ) of data that is collected at the fusion center. In this work, we address the problem of finding the least-cost routing tree that satisfies a given IQ constraint. We note that the optimal least-cost routing solution is a variation of the classical NP-hard Steiner tree …


Artificial Intelligence – I: A Two-Step Approach For Improving Efficiency Of Feedforward Multilayer Perceptrons Network, Shoukat Ullah, Zakia Hussain Aug 2009

Artificial Intelligence – I: A Two-Step Approach For Improving Efficiency Of Feedforward Multilayer Perceptrons Network, Shoukat Ullah, Zakia Hussain

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

An artificial neural network has got greater importance in the field of data mining. Although it may have complex structure, long training time, and uneasily understandable representation of results, neural network has high accuracy and is preferable in data mining. This research paper is aimed to improve efficiency and to provide accurate results on the basis of same behaviour data. To achieve these objectives, an algorithm is proposed that uses two data mining techniques, that is, attribute selection method and cluster analysis. The algorithm works by applying attribute selection method to eliminate irrelevant attributes, so that input dimensionality is reduced …


Efficient Scheduling For Sdmg Cioq Switches, Mei Yang, S. Q. Zheng Jan 2006

Efficient Scheduling For Sdmg Cioq Switches, Mei Yang, S. Q. Zheng

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

Combined input and output queuing (CIOQ) switches are being considered as high-performance switch architectures due to their ability to achieve 100% throughput and perfectly emulate output queuing (OQ) switch performance with a small speedup factor S. To realize a speedup factor S, a conventional CIOQ switch requires the switching fabric and memories to operate S times faster than the line rate. In this paper, we propose to use a CIOQ switch with space-division multiplexing expansion and grouped input/output ports (SDMG CIOQ switch for short) to realize speedup while only requiring the switching fabric and memories to operate at the line …


Poster Session A: Address Auto-Configuration In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Olsr, M.U. Saleem, Shoaib Mukhtar Aug 2005

Poster Session A: Address Auto-Configuration In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Olsr, M.U. Saleem, Shoaib Mukhtar

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks is dynamic multi-hop network that is formed by a set of mobile wireless nodes that are sharing the same bandwidth. So every node possibly acts as a host as well as a router. In traditional networks, hosts can depend on the central servers like DHCP for IP assignment and management, but it cannot be extended to MANET due to its distributed and dynamic nature. Many solutions have been proposed, amongst them some are try to extend the stateless configuration of IPv6 for MANET; others distribute IP addresses among nodes (using binary distribution). Most of these proposed …
