With the development of multiple processors SoC (system on chip), there are more and more challenges to the design of NoC (network-on-chip), one of which is to design energy-efficient NoC architecture, due to its large power consumption. Multi-NoC (multiple network-on-chip) has been proposed to save leakage power for its advantages in power gating network components. In this paper, we propose a hybrid Multi-NoC design, called HM-Mesh. HM-Mesh adopts a hybrid CMesh and Mesh architecture, and leverages CMesh network to respect its power efficiency at low network utilization. HMMesh is able to adaptively schedule packets to different subnets according to the network load, and smartly perform power gating to achieve good energy efficiency. The experimental results show that HMMesh delivers an average of 4.87% higher performance than Catnap, the state of the art power efficient Multi-NoC design. More importantly, HM-Mesh consumes an average of 29.2% less power than that of Catnap.
According to the notion that the existing delay scheduling algorithm is lacking in consideration of the load of nodes, if the assignment data to be processed is set on one or several nodes, it will easily lead to an i...

Nowadays, the demands for Workflow applications are blooming increasingly to address the resources and VM instance hour minimization issues. Some provoking constraints acting as a breakthrough has steered us towards investigating the secret's of cloud dominance such as (1) to achieve end-to-end deadlines; (2) Minimized VM instance allotment to a particular application; (3) Minimizing the application's makespan by establishing application performance schedule; (4) Determining a VM process schedule. Initially, it is necessary to determine the lower and upper bounds for end-to-end deadliness. In response to that, we develop a heuristic Slack-Distance Minimization (SDM) algorithm for ensuring the first two conditions. After determining the application performance schedule and appropriate VM instances, it is necessary to minimize the instance hours by using our proposed Resource Hour Minimization (RHM) algorithm. The investigational outcome proves that the proposed SDM algorithm is an outstanding one when compared to other algorithms like HEFT and MOHEFT. Furthermore, the comparisons were made in the presence and absence of the RHM algorithm for ensuring the minimized execution instance hours.

Most research on the mathematical modelling of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have focussed mainly on the optimization aspects, such as those relating to sensor placements, data routing, reliability, etc. Surprisingly the issue relating to performance analysis of data processing and transmission at the nodes, have not received as much attention. A considerable amount of delay to data actually happens at the nodes as a result of queue build up. Hence, understanding the role of queueing in WSN modelling is very important. In this paper we study the literature of queueing as applied to WSNs and provide insight to the current state of the art and directions for the future. The utilization of queueing theory in WSNs is broadly classified into four categories, namely, congestion control methods, power allocation schemes, network performance evaluation techniques and scheduling schemes.

High downlink and uplink speeds are achievable with the aid of LTE. Providing this technology in real life requires scheduling algorithms that will effect the concepts such as throughput and fairness. In this paper some new averaging methods for proportional fair algorithm are proposed. Simulation results show that arithmetic mean method can increase spectral efficiency and fairness performance of proportional fair scheduler.

In most of the current commercial Clouds, resources are billed based on a time interval equal to one hour, as is the case of virtual machine (VM) instances on Amazon EC2. Such time interval is usually long, and yet the user has to pay for the whole last hour, even if he/she has only used a fraction of it, contradicting the pay-as-you-go model of Clouds. In this paper, we analyse the advantages of adopting alternative scheduling policies that exploit idle last time intervals, in terms of service cost to Cloud users and operating costs to Cloud providers. Using a real-life astronomy workflow application, constrained by user-defined Deadline and Budget quality of service (QoS) parameters, a set of online state-of-the-art-based scheduling algorithms try different execution and resource provisioning plans. Our results show that exploitation of partially idle last time intervals can reduce the cost of service to the end user, and augments providers competitiveness up to 21.6% through energy efficiency improvement and consequent lowering of operational costs.

For LTE-A TDD systems supporting DL heavy asymmetry traffic, the number of downlink (DL) subframes are much higher than that of uplink (UL) subframes. The HARQ feedbacks of multiple DL tranport blocks may be transmitted in one UL subframe. Time-bundling is a technique proposed to reduce the HARQ signaling overhead by combining multiple ACK/NACKs into one using `AND' operation. In this paper, we propose a window-based HARQ time-bundling scheme to further enhance the legacy scheme. An analytical model is provided to analyze the performance of proposed scheme. We will show that the proposed scheme can reduce the signaling overhead and the analytical model can accurately estimate the performance of the proposed scheme.

This paper investigates information services in vehicular networks via cooperative infrastructure-to-vehicle (I2V), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. In particular, we consider the cooperation among multiple roadside units (RSUs) in a bidirectional roadway scenario in providing data services. The primary objective is to best explore the channel efficiency for I2V/V2V communications to maximize the system performance. Specifically, we formulate the problem, propose a Maximum Service (MS) algorithm which combines the following three approaches. First, a hybrid I2V/V2V data dissemination scheduling policy is proposed to enable data services in the RSU's coverage. Second, a cooperative V2V data sharing mechanism out of the RSUs' coverage is proposed by assigning server-vehicles (SVs) to offload RSUs' workload. Third, a data dissemination policy for SVs is proposed to further enhance overall system performance. Finally, we build the simulation model, give a comprehensive performance evaluation to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed solution.
