Topology modeling is a challenging topic in the design and development of tools that simulate the behavior of interconnection networks. During the last years we have seen the birth of several simulation tools and frameworks modeling interconnects, some of them doing brilliant efforts to do the code re-usable and extensible. The main differences among these simulation tools and frameworks is the level of granularity and abstraction of their network models. Different network models may generate duplicated efforts in modeling certain aspects of them, such as the network topology or the routing algorithm. If the topology generation and routing algorithm modeling were separated from the modeling of other network aspects, then the simulator developers could focus on developing non-existing models and new functionality, without wasting time in doing a work previously done by other simulation tool developers. In this paper we describe TopGen, an external library that can be integrated with any tool that simulates interconnection networks. TopGen provides a compendious of well-known network topologies that can be used to interconnect the network components, such as end nodes, channels, switches and routers. It also provides the corresponding knowledge to apply a compendious of routing algorithms to the modeled network topologies. TopGen also supports the definition of customized topologies that are not the standard ones, thanks to a special interface used for this purpose. We also provide details on how to integrate TopGen with a network simulator, by means of a simple API. Finally, we describe several use cases of the TopGen library.

With the development of technology and applications in space delay-tolerant networks(SDTNs), increasing attention has been paid on the routing technologies between different DTN nodes. This paper proposes a novel hybrid multiple copy routing(HMCR) algorithm that can be applied not only to deterministic space scenarios but also to opportunistic space scenarios. HMCR combines contact graph and delivery probability metrics to make forwarding decisions. In order to verify the new HMCR algorithm’s performance, research work has been carried out to prove its availability in SDTNs. The analysis and simulation results show that, compared with other algorithms such as contact graph routing(CGR), Epidemic, and PRo PHET, the new HMCR algorithm performs well in the areas of message delivery ratios, average end-to-end delays, and transmission overhead, which proves to be suitable for highly dynamic SDTNs.

A constrained optimization framework of a flexible demand responsive transport system is considered. An intelligently administered scheme consisting of unmanned vehicles, requiring no prior seat reservation is introduced ensuring high quality door-to-door services at reduced costs. A decentralized decision making scheme comprised of various model based adaptive control patterns is developed. At any time optimized use of the available vehicle capacity is achieved while keeping cars as busy as possible. Vehicle itineraries are smartly defined according to their current state, traffic conditions and demand as well customer preferences. Tolerated passenger detours are respected while taking into consideration the related client waiting time. The asynchronous system behavior is modeled based on theory and methodology of discrete event dynamic systems (DEDS). Discrete event simulations permit evaluation of the system performance as well optimal tuning of the involved control algorithms. After identification of the desirable DEDS states the system is guided to controllable events infinitely often. As a case study, the city of Paris is considered. A comparative study is conducted appraising the suggested vehicle fleet versus a scheme consisting of self-service autonomous vehicles (SSAV). Metrics on cars, clients and network are presented such as trip durations, client waiting time and queue lengths at nodes, vehicle occupancy etc.

DPillar has recently been proposed as a server-centric datacenter network and is combinatorially related to (but distinct from) the well-known wrapped butterfly network. We explain the relationship between DPillar and the wrapped butterfly network before proving that the underlying graph of DPillar is a Cayley graph;hence, the datacenter network DPillar is node-symmetric. We use this symmetry property to establish a single-path routing algorithm for DPillar that computes a shortest path and has time complexity O(k), where k parameterizes the dimension of DPillar (we refer to the number of ports in its switches as n). Our analysis also enables us to calculate the diameter of DPillar exactly. Moreover, our algorithm is trivial to implement, being essentially a conditional clause of numeric tests, and improves significantly upon a routing algorithm earlier employed for DPillar. Furthermore, we provide empirical data in order to demonstrate this improvement. In particular, we empirically show that our routing algorithm improves the average length of paths found, the aggregate bottleneck throughput, and the communication latency. A secondary, yet important, effect of our work is that it emphasises that datacenter networks are amenable to a closer combinatorial scrutiny that can significantly improve their computational efficiency and performance.
In Wireless Mesh Networks, nodes often have a limited battery supply to use for the sending and reception of transmissions. By allowing nodes to relay messages for other nodes, the distance that needs to be bridged ca...
