Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) experience frequent link disconnections due to non-uniform node distribution and mobility. Thus, end-to-end path establishment-based routing protocols cause frequent transmission failures in MANETs, resulting in heavy control messages for path reestablishment. While location-based MANET routing protocols, such as Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), use location information to forward messages in a hop-by-hop routing fashion without an end-to-end path establishment procedure, such protocols encounter communication void problems when message forwarding to the next hop fails due to the absence of a relay node. Therefore, to solve this problem, this paper proposes a Delay Tolerant-GPSR (DT-GPSR) protocol, which combines Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) technology with the GPSR protocol. The performance of DT-GPSR is compared with the performances of the original GPSR and PRoPHET routing protocols through simulation using NS-2. The simulation results confirm that DT-GPSR outperforms GPSR and PRoPHET in terms of the message delivery ratio and message delivery delay.

An Ad-hoc network which is composed of mobile nodes only should be able to distribute the traffic load evenly to the network so that the network could utilize its resources effectively However, most of researches have been concentrated in channel establishment level, not in channel reestablishment level. In this paper, the existing AODV routing protocol has been modified and upgraded to disperse the traffic load more quickly A node which uses the modified AODV routing protocol proposed in this paper broadcasts a control message to adjacent nodes, which announces congestion around the node. In order to verify the performance improvement of the proposed protocol, simulation study has been carried out by using ns2 simulator.

BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) is a best well-known tool in a bioinformatics area. BLAST quickly compares input sequences with annotated huge sequence databases and predicts their functions. It helps biologists to make it easy to annotate newly found sequences with reduced experimental time, scope, and cost. However, as the amount of sequences is increasing remarkably with the advance of sequencing machines, performance of BLAST has been a critical issue and tried to solve it with several alternatives. In this paper, we propose a new PC-Based Cluster system (E-Cluster), a new physical data design methodology (logical partitioning technique) and a query routing technique (intra-query routing). To verify our system, we measure response time, speedup, and efficiency for various sizes of sequences in NR (Non-Redundancy) database. Experimental result shows that proposed system has better speedup and efficiency (maximum 600%) than those o( conventional approaches such as SMF machines, clusters, and grids.

Previous studies on overlay ad hoc multi-casting are mainly divided into two categories: hierarchical structure-based multicast schemes and non-hierarchical structure-based multicast schemes. They do not reflect their real-time location information for routing updates. This can be a cause of low performance on energy consumption, throughput, and latency. For improving the problems, we propose an implicit cluster based overlay ad hoc multicast scheme with analysis of related work, and then we evaluate performance through computer simulation.

This paper proposes a vehicle ad-hoc network (VANET) routing algorithm to reduce the probability of routing path discontinuity in urban intersections. In urban intersections, the vehicles may frequently change their moving directions. It can cause the disconnection of routing path and the increase of a packet transmission delay. In order to resolve this problem, the proposed routing algorithm exploits the information of moving directions in urban intersections. In this way, the proposed algorithm can reduce the probability of the local maximum which causes the increase of the number of routing hops and packet transmission delay. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the local maximum probability by 10% and increase the successful packet transmission ratio by 5% compared to the conventional VANET routing algorithms.

During periods of large data transmission, routing selection methods are used to efficiently manage data traffic and improve the speed of transmission. One approach in routing selection is AntNet that applies the Ant algorithm in transmissions with uniform probability. However, this approach uses random selection, which can cause excessive data transmission rates and fail to optimize data This paper presents the use of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to efficiently route and disperse data transmissions, during periods with "unnecessary weight increases for random selection". This new algorithm for improved performance provides highly accurate estimates of the transmission time and the transmission error rate.

In the Ad-hoc networks, the limitation on the availability of power for operation is a significant bottleneck, given the requirements of portability, weight, and size of mobile devices. Hence, the use of routing metrics that consider the capabilities of the power sources of the network nodes contributes to the efficient utilization of energy. This paper presents a QoS routing protocol that minimize the power consumed by a packet in traversing from source node to the destination node. Results obtained of simulation show that, with our approach we can reduce the power consumption of nodes and increases the life time of the network.

In this paper, we propose a new routing scheme based on multi-path routing which provides uniform energy consumption for all nodes. This scheme adds a new type of root node for constructing multi-path. The sink node delegates some partial roles to these root nodes. Such root nodes carry out path establishment independently. As a result, each nodes consume energy more uniformly and the network life-time will be extended. Through simulation, we confirmed that energy consumption of the whole network is scattered and the network life-time is extended. Moreover, we show that the proposed routing scheme improves the performance of network compared to previous routing strategies as the number of source nodes increases.

In this paper, we present a MMPR (Minimizing the Maximum Used Power Routing) Algorithm in a MANET (Mobile ad hoc network) by modifying the route selection algorithm in well-known routing MANET protocol. In the previous route selection algorithms, the metric for cost function is the minimal hop which does not consider the energy status. MMPR uses the metric with used energy The node that want to know the route for some destination begins calculating the route cost function with alpha which is the maximum used energy in the known route. If the new route that contains the node whose used energy is greater than previous known alpha is known to the node that want to send a packet in some moment, the probability of selecting the new route is lower. Experimental results with MMPR show higher performance in both the maximum used energy and the number of dead nodes than that of the CMMBCR (Conditional Max-Min Battery Routing).

In this paper, a new modified and optimized AntNet algorithm which can be implemented efficiently onto network processor is proposed. The AntNet that mimics the activities of the social insect is an adaptive agent-based routing algorithm. This method requires a complex arithmetic calculating system. However, since network processors have simple arithmetic units for a packet processing, it is very difficult to implement the original AntNet algorithm on network processors. Therefore, the proposed AntNet algorithm is a solution of this problem by decreasing arithmetic executing cycles for calculating a reinforcement value without loss of the adaptive performance. The results of the simulations show that the proposed algorithm is more suitable and efficient than the original AntNet algorithm for commercial network processors.
