In the social scene of opportunistic networks, message applications find suitable relay nodes or certain transmission destinations from the surrounding neighbors through specific network addresses of users. However, at the dawn of big data and 5G networks, the variational location information of nodes is difficult to be available to mobile devices all the time, and a long wait for the destination may cause severe end-to-end delay. To improve the transmission environment, this study constructs an efficient routing-delivery scheme (Predict and Forward) based on node profile for the opportunistic networks. The node profile effectively characterizes nodes by analyzing and comparing their attributes instead of network addresses, such as physical characteristics, places of residence, workplaces, occupations or hobbies. According to the optimal stopping theory, this algorithm implements the optimal transmission for Prelearn messages by dividing the complex data transmission process into two different phases (Predict and Forward). Through simulations and the comparison of routing algorithms in opportunistic networks, the proposed strategy increases the delivery ratio by 80% with the traditional methods on average, and the average end-to-end delay in this algorithm is the lowest.

The ZigBee wireless sensor network is an important supporting technology of IoT (Internet of Things). For the reason that various applications of IoT may incur heavy traffic on the network of ZigBee, and the existing methods of constructing ZigBee topology routing tree fail to consider both the link configuration and the busy-degree of the node, so the existing routing algorithm should be optimized to advance the performance of the whole network. Aiming at the above shortcomings, this paper takes the busy-degree of the node, link quality and number of hops into account, and proposes a compositive weighted routing (CWR) algorithm. Experimental results on NS2 show us that the algorithm can improve the packet average arriving rate, decrease the packet average end-to-end delay and keep energy balance among nodes.

The thermal problem is a challenge in recent Network on Chip (NoC) designs due to its great impact on the network performance and reliability, especially for 3D NoC. In this work, we design a virtual channel based fully adaptive routing algorithm for the runtime 3D NoC thermal-aware management. For throttling information collection, instead of transmitting the topology information of the whole network, we use a 12 bits register to reserve the router state for one hop away instead of transmitting the topology information of the whole network. It saves the hardware cost largely and decreases the network latency. To ensure deadlock and livelock free and minimize the hardware overhead, we only use two virtual channels for each horizontal channel to achieve full adaptivity and high routability. For path selection, we design a strategy that takes priority to the distance, but also consider path diversity and traffic state. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm shows better network latency and throughput with low power compared with traditional algorithms.

Network-on-Chip(No C) is a promising replacement of bus architecture due to its better *** state-of-the-art No Cs, each packet contains several fixed-length flits, which facilitates allocations of network resources but brings in many unused bits. In this paper, we propose a novel technique called Stealth-ACK to effectively address the above problem. Stealth-ACK leverages unused bits in head flits of non-ACK packets to carry and stealthily transmit ACK information. Such stealth transmissions of ACK information effectively reduce not only the amount of dedicated ACK packets on No C, but also the number of unused bits in head flits of non-ACK packets, which significantly reduces wastes on No C bandwidth. Experimental results show that Stealth-ACK averagely increases the throughput of 16 × 16 2-D mesh No C by 11.9%, and averagely reduces the No C latency by 34.8% on application traces of SPLASH-2. Moreover, Stealth-ACK only requires trivial hardware modification to basic router architectures, which incurs negligible power consumption and area cost.

Hierarchical routing resources play vital role in FPGA routing. Better routability options can be obtained using segmented approach of wires thus enabling routing optimization. Source and sink logic blocks can be connected via wire segments such that the overall wire length and switching transistors inside the switch box can be saved over an extent. This paper presents an experimental approach of study of wire segments types affecting the routability. Widely used segment types are considered for experiments. A routing algorithm containing the cost equation based on routing segment types is proposed. Results show that at least 15% less critical path delay can be achieved tested against 12 largest MCNC benchmark circuits.

With the development of microelectronic devices and the radio, the application of WSN is more popular and can be applied in the various areas, which has attracted scholars. However, the requirements of performance for WSNs are becoming great in terms of reducing the energy consumption and prolonging the network lifetime. In the paper, an energy-efficiency routing scheme based on clusters with a mobile sink which consist of six parts is proposed. Through the simulation, we have demonstrated that the proposed routing algorithm has a higher performance which can reduce energy consumption on WSNs.

In order to optimize the timeliness and pertinence of message delivery in emergency rescue scenarios and improve the service performance of emergency communications network, we propose a location-assistant content distribution scheme based on delay tolerant network. First of all, considering that the movement patterns of rescue teams tend to follow a predetermined course of action, we design a location-based group mobility model. Due to the intermittent network connectivity and variety of emergency service, a content-classification-based publish/subscribe architecture and a GenericSpray routing algorithm based on the prediction of overlap opportunity in spatio-temporal positions are proposed. Furthermore, we also give a cache management strategy based on the content significance. Since locationassistant content distribution scheme can predict the overlap of activity between rescue teams through the course of action, not only can the number of copy forwarding and message delivery delays be significantly reduced but also the priority delivery of important messages can be ensured by message classification. Simulation experiments show that compared with the traditional delay tolerant network routing algorithm and the classic first-in-first-out caching strategy, location-assistant content distribution scheme improves the performance of message delivery rate, transmission delay, and control overhead significantly.

routing algorithms can improve network performance by maximizing routing adaptiveness but can be problematic in the presence of endpoint congestion. Tree-saturation is a well-known behavior caused by endpoint congestion. Adaptive routing can, however, spread the congestion and result in thick branches of the congestion tree - creating Head-of-Line (HoL) blocking and degrading performance. In this work, we identify how ignoring virtual channels (VCs) and their occupancy during adaptive routing results in congestion trees with thick branches as congestion is spread to all VCs. To address this limitation, we propose Footprint routing algorithm - a new adaptive routing algorithm that minimizes the size of the congestion tree, both in terms of the number of nodes in the congestion tree as well as branch thickness. Footprint achieves this by regulating adaptiveness by requiring packets to follow the path of prior packets to the same destination if the network is congested instead of forking a new path or VC. Thus, the congestion tree is dynamically kept as slim as possible and reduces HoL blocking or congestion spreading while maintaining high adaptivity and maximizing VC buffer utilization. We evaluate the proposed Footprint routing algorithm against other adaptive routing algorithms and our simulation results show that the network saturation throughput can be improved by up to 43% (58%) compared with the fully adaptive routing (partially adaptive routing) algorithms.

Realizing barrier synchronization in multi-/many-core processors with high efficiency becomes more and more challenging as the number of cores integrated in a single chip keeps growing. Quite a few barrier solutions have been proposed, while they provide limited improvements for synchronizing large amounts of cores or incur unfavorable restrictions on performing concurrent barriers. This paper presents Hy Bar, a hardware barrier based on a hybrid switching No C which adopts packet switching and circuit switching methods in two sub-networks respectively. Dedicated channels in the circuit-switching sub-network are dynamically built and removed when barrier requests traverse the packet-switching sub-network according to a modified dimensionorder routing algorithm. The efficiency of inter-core communication for concurrent barriers is improved by merging barrier arrival requests and broadcasting release requests along the circuit channels. The execution time of synthetic cases, benchmark kernels and parallel applications using various barrier solutions are evaluated in an RTL-based simulation platform. Experimental results show that our proposal provides about 15%–50%performance improvement compared to previous solutions, while the hardware overhead is marginal under SMIC40 nm technology. Moreover, Hy Bar introduces a minor efficiency loss for concurrent barriers with no limitation on their layouts of participating cores in the on-chip network.
