In wireless sensor networks, the transmission success ratio would be decreased when the scale of the WSNs increased. To defeat this problem, we propose a multipath routing based on opportunistic routing for improving end-to-end reliability in large-scale wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme exploits the advantages of existing opportunistic routing and achieves high end-to-end success ratio by branching like a multipath routing through local decision without information of the whole network. As a result of the simulation result, the proposed scheme shows a similar or higher end-to-end transmission success ratio and less energy consumption rather than the existing scheme.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of a lot of sensor nodes having limited transmission range. So multi-hop transmission is used for communication among nodes but the multi-hop transmission degrade the end-to-end reliability. Multipath routing and opportunistic routing are typical approaches for guaranteeing end-to-end reliability in WSNs. The existing protocols improve the reliability effectively in small networks but they suffer from rapid performance degradation in large networks. In this paper, we propose the opportunistic multipath routing protocol for guaranteeing end-to-end reliability in large WSNs. Applying multipath routing and opportunistic routing simultaneously is very hard because their conflicting routing features. The proposed protocol applies these approaches simultaneously by section-based routing thereby enhancing end-to-end reliability. Additionally, the proposed protocol guarantees required reliability by the concept of section reliability. The section reliability over a certain level might satisfy required end-to-end reliability. Our simulation results show that the proposed protocol is more suitable for guaranteeing reliability than existing protocols in large-scale WSNs.

Wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) require real-time quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees to be provided by the network. The end-to-end delay is very critical metric for QoS guarantees in WMSNs. In WMSNs, due to the transmission errors incurred over wireless channels, it is difficult to obtain reliable delivery of data in conjunction with low end-to-end delay. In order to improve the end-to-end delay performance, the system has to drop few packets during network congestion. In this article, our proposal is based on optimization of end-to end delay for WMSNs. We optimize end-to-end delay constraint by assuming that each packet is allowed fixed number of retransmissions. To optimize the end-to-end delay, first, we compute the performance measures of the system, such as end-to-end delay and reliability for different network topologies (e.g., linear topology, tree topology) and against different choices of system parameters (e.g., data rate, number of nodes, number of retransmissions). Second, we study the impact of the end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio on indoor and outdoor environments in WMSNs. All scenarios are simulated with multiple run-times by using network simulator-2 (NS-2) and results are evaluated and discussed.

Internet of Things (IoT) networks composed of a large number of sensors and actuators generate a huge volume of data and control commands, which should be enforced by strong data reliability. The end-to-end data reliability of IoT networks is an essential industrial enabler. Blockchain technology can provide strong data reliability and integrity within IoT networks. We designed a lightweight end-to-end blockchain network that applies to common IoT applications. Its enhanced modular architecture and lightweight consensus mechanism guarantee its practical applicability for general IoT applications. In addition, the proposed blockchain network is highly software compatible because it adopts the Hyperledger development environment. Directly embedding the proposed blockchain middleware platform in small computing devices proves its practicability.

Microelectronics device performance and its reliability are directly related to and controlled by its constituent materials and their microstructure. Specific processes used to form and shape the materials microstructure need to be controlled in order to achieve the ultimate device performance. Examples of front-end and back-end ULSI processes, packaging process, and novel optical storage materials are given to illustrate such process-structure-property-reliability relationship. As more novel materials are introduced to meet the new requirements for device shrinkage, such under-standing is indispensable for future generation process development and reliability assessment.

This paper presents results of vibration analysis of a end-winding of large generator for fossil power plant. A finite element analysis using a commercial S/W is performed to calculate alternating electromagnetic forces, mainly of 120㎐ in 60㎐ machines, acting on the end-winding, and then to calculate forced response of the end-winding under electromagnetic forces. Also, this paper presents analytical and experimental modal analysis results of generator end-winding to validate FE model. We calculated forced response of end-winding on 120㎐, double rotating frequency. These results will be used to evaluate structural reliability of end-winding and applied to update model.

In recent years, many applications in WSN have increasingly interested in data transfer reliability. In this paper, we propose a dynamic grouping transfer mechanism which maintains both reliability and energy efficiency in transmission from a source to a sink. The proposed scheme considers channel error of each node. Then it uses an end-to-end ACK transmission in a group and a hop-by-hop ACK transmission between groups. Consequently this mechanism minimize the cost of packet transfer along with enhancing the network lifetime and reliability.

In this paper, we propose an autonomous driving system using an end-to-end model to improve lane departure and misrecognition of traffic lights in a vision sensor-based system. End-to-end learning can be extended to a variety of environmental conditions. Driving data is collected using a model car based on a vision sensor. Using the collected data, it is composed of existing data and data with outlayers removed. A class was formed with camera image data as input data and speed and steering data as output data, and data learning was performed using an end-to-end model. The reliability of the trained model was verified. Apply the learned end-to-end model to the model car to predict the steering angle with image data. As a result of the learning of the model car, it can be seen that the model with the outlayer removed is improved than the existing model.

Electromagnetic forces generate vibrations in the end-winding of large generators. A finite element analysis using a commercial S/W is performed to calculate electromagnetic force of end-winding in two pole generator for 500 MW fossil power plant. Also, this paper presents analytical and experimental modal analysis results of generator end- winding. Using validated FE model, 3D electromagnetic model which computes the forces on the end-winding is coupled with a 3D mechanical model which calculates the dynamic displacement and stress under electromagnetic forces. These results will be used to evaluate reliability of end-winding and applied to update model.
