A Pilot Study Into Mapping Atypical Supply Networks, Mark Edwards, Pauline J. Ross, Lee Styger Jan 2018

A Pilot Study Into Mapping Atypical Supply Networks, Mark Edwards, Pauline J. Ross, Lee Styger

Sydney Business School - Papers

A system can only be improved if it is measured. In order to adequately measure a system, that system needs to be mapped and all key inter-nodal linkages, constraints and pathways recorded. Commercial supply chains demonstrate similar characteristics to other systems. Much has been written about mapping supply systems, where typically, the product or service is tracked from the originating source such as a raw materials supplier to the end customer of the product such as the consumer. There is however, another classification of supply system, where the payment for the product or service is not undertaken by the end …


A Configurable Time-Controlled Clustering Algorithm For Wireless Sensor Networks, S. Selvakennedy, Sukunesan Sinnappan Jan 2005

A Configurable Time-Controlled Clustering Algorithm For Wireless Sensor Networks, S. Selvakennedy, Sukunesan Sinnappan

Future large-scale sensor networks may comprise thousands of wirelessly connected sensor nodes that could provide an unimaginable opportunity to interact with physical phenomena in real time. These nodes are typically highly resource-constrained. Since the communication task is a significant power consumer, there are various attempts to introduce energy-awareness at different levels within the communication stack. Clustering is one such attempt to control energy dissipation for sensor data routing. Here, we propose the time-controlled clustering algorithm to realise a network-wide energy reduction by the rotation of clusterhead role, and the consideration of residual energy in its election. A realistic energy model …


The Time Controlled Clustering Algorithm For Optimised Data Dissemination In Wireless Sensor Networks, S. Selvakennedy, Sukunesan Sinnappan Jan 2005

As the communication task is a significant power consumer, there are many attempts to improve energy efficiency. Node clustering, to reduce direct transmission to the base station, is one such attempt to control data dissemination. Here, we derived the optimal number of clusters for TCCA clustering algorithm based on a realistic energy model using results in stochastic geometry.
