Many routing protocols have been proposed for low-power and ad-hoc networks to deliver command or data among nodes and recently, various researches are carried out about networking scheme considering reliability and scalability. In low-power networking technology, the performance of network layer is closely connected with the operation of data link layer and mesh routing mechanisms based on TDMA MAC are considered for reliability and scalability. This paper proposes mesh routing algorithm utilizing the characteristics of TDMA MAC and topological addressing in TDMA based low-power and ad-hoc networks and implementation results are presented.

With the advancement in the area of cloud storage services as well as a tremendous growth of social networking sites, permission for one web service to act on the behalf of another has become increasingly vital as social Internet services such as blogs, photo sharing, and social networks. With this increased cross-site media sharing, there is a upscale of security implications and hence the need to formulate security protocols and considerations. Recently, OAuth, a new protocol for establishing identity management standards across services, is provided as an alternative way to share the user names and passwords, and expose personal information to attacks against on-line data and identities. Moreover, OwnCloud provides an enterprise file synchronizing and sharing that is hosted on user's data center, on user's servers, using user's storage. We propose a secure Social Networking Site (SSN) access based on OAuth implementation by combining two novel concepts of OAuth and OwnCloud. Security analysis and performance evaluation are given to validate the proposed scheme.

In the forthcoming public ATM/B-ISDN, the efficient resource management with pre-planned transit networking which public domain NNI signaling is essential to maintain high network utilization and to assure QoS to the multimedia service users. For this purpose the transit networks must be managed according to the bearer service capability which is defined by ATM Forum and ITU-T. In this paper, we introduce an implementation of ATM transit networking with ATM VP-XC(Virtual Path cross-connect) and US(Network Management System). The functions of ATM VP-XC and NMS have been simulated with OPNET 6.1 modules. We implemented the F4 OAM functions of ATM VP connection according to the ITU-T 1.610 recommendation. Also, the ATM VP transit networking is managed by the NMS according to the connection management architecture of the TWN(Telecommunications Management Network) /TINA ( Telecommunications Information Networking Architecture).

Most chemical companies try to maximize their energy efficiencies due to high oil price and reinforcement of environmental regulation. An individual factory continuously has tried to reduce energy consumption or carbon dioxide discharge for high profit. Nevertheless, it is found that waste heat is disposed with forms of low or medium pressure steams. It can be improved by the aspect of entire industrial complex. Therefore, we have developed a steam network optimization method using Steam Networking Matrices(SNMs) in this research. Results from an illustrative example show that energy consumption can be reduced by optimizing steam exchange networks.

In this paper, a distributed power and end-to-end rate control algorithm is proposed in the presence of licensed users. By Lagrangian duality theory, the optimal power and rate control solution is given for the unlicensed users while satisfying the interference temperature limits to licensed users. It is obtained that transmitting with either 0 or the maximum node power is the optimal scheme. The synchronous and asynchronous distributed algorithms are proposed to be implemented at the nodes and links. The convergence of the proposed algorithms are proved. Finally, further discussion on the utility-based fairness is provided for the proposed algorithms. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm can limit the interference to licensed user under a predefined threshold.

Objective : This study investigated the mediating effect of social networks on the relationship between social networking service (SNS) dependence and healthy lifestyle among university students. Methods : Data from 374 university students were collected via online surveys. Sociodemographic data, SNS dependence, social networks, and healthy lifestyle were assessed. Mediation analysis using bootstrapping was conducted to examine the mediating effect of social networks on the relationship between SNS dependence and healthy lifestyle. Results : A total of 374 university students participated in this study. The average age of the participants was 21.8 years (standard deviation = 2.1), and 70.3% were females. Mediation analysis revealed that SNS dependence had a direct effect on healthy lifestyle (β = -.078, standard error [SE] = .052, p = .128), which was not statistically significant. However, a statistically significant indirect effect was observed through social networks (β = -.052, SE = .020, p = .011). The total effect of SNS dependence on a healthy lifestyle was significant (β = -.130, SE = .053, p = .014). Conclusion : Social networks play a critical role in promoting a healthy lifestyle. Health professionals should prioritize interventions to address SNS dependence and leverage social networks to encourage healthier behaviors.

The semiconductor equipments generate necessary data through communication networks for the effective manufacturing processes and automation of semiconductor equipments. For transferring data between semiconductor equipments and sending data to monitor equipments, several standards for communication protocols have been proposed. Communication networks in semiconductor manufacturing systems will transmit a lot of data traffic, which can be vulnerable in data delay and network failure. Therefore, it is required that data traffic need to be distributed. To accomplish this objective, we recommend the use of a redundant and valuable communication path which is constructed by a wireless sensor network. In this paper, the directed diffusion method for wireless sensor networking is suggested for networking semiconductor equipments. It is shown that how the directed diffusion is employed to connect semiconductor equipments. Also, we show how to implement the SECS of semiconductor equipments communication protocols based on the directed diffusion.

This paper considers a two-user Gaussian interference channel with energy harvesting transmitters. Different than conventional battery powered wireless nodes, energy harvesting transmitters have to adapt transmission to availability of energy at a particular instant. In this setting, the optimal power allocation problem to maximize the sum throughput with a given deadline is formulated. The convergence of the proposed iterative coordinate descent method for the problem is proved and the short-term throughput maximizing offline power allocation policy is found. Examples for interference regions with known sum capacities are given with directional water-filling interpretations. Next, stochastic data arrivals are addressed. Finally, online and/or distributed near-optimal policies are proposed. Performance of the proposed algorithms are demonstrated through simulations.

To achieve secure communication in current ZigBee networks, encrypted messages using security keys need to be shared among devices. A link key shared by two devices is used for unicast communications, where the master key is the starting point for establishing a link key. The ZigBee protocol has some limitations in end-to-end key establishment, which are discussed and an improved end-to-end key establishment scheme is presented.
