In Sensor Networks, the problem of finding the optimal routing path dynamically, which passes through all terminals or nodes once per each, may come up. Providing a generalized scheme of approximations that can be applied to the kind of problems, and formulating the bounds of the run time and the results of the algorithm made from the scheme, one may evaluate mathematically the routing path formed in a given network. This paper, dealing with Euclidean TSP(Euclidean Travelling Sales Person) that represents such problems, provides the scheme for constructing the approximated Euclidean TSP by parallel computing, and the ground for determining the difference between the approximated Euclidean TSP produced from the scheme and the optimal Euclidean TSP.

In this paper, a multi-hop transmission protocol based on parallel communication of secondary users (SUs) is proposed. The primary multi-hop network coexists with a set of SUs by cooperative spectrum sharing. The main optimization target of our protocol is the overall performance of the secondary system with the guarantee of the primary outage performance. The energy consumption of the primary system is reduced by the cooperation of SUs. The aim of the primary source is to communicate with the primary destination via a number of primary relays. SUs may serve as extra decode-and-forward relays for the primary network. When an SU acts as a relay for a primary user (PU), some other SUs that satisfy the condition for parallel communication are selected to simultaneously access the primary spectrum for secondary transmissions. For the proposed protocol, two opportunistic routing strategies are proposed, and a search algorithm to select the SUs for parallel communication is described. The throughput of the SUs and the PU is illustrated. Numerical results demonstrate that the average throughput of the SUs is greatly improved, and the end-to-end throughput of the PU is slightly increased in the proposed protocol when there are more than seven SUs.

The subject of navigation has drawn a large interest in the last few years. The navigation within a city is to find the path between two points, source location and destination location. In many cities, solving the routing problem is very essential as to find the route between different locations (starting location (source) and an ending location (destination)) in a fast and efficient way. This paper considers streets with diagonal streets. Such streets pose a problem in determining the directions of the route to be followed. The paper presents a solution for the path planning using the reconfigurable mesh (R-Mesh). R-Mesh is a parallel platform that has very fast solutions to many problems and can be deployed in moving vehicles and moving robots. This paper presents a solution that is very fast in computing the routes.

The benefits of network coding in all-optical multicast networks have been widely demonstrated. In this paper, we mainly discuss the multicast service efficiently provisioning problem in the network coding enabled elastic optical networks (EONs). Although most research on routing and spectrum allocation (RSA) has been widely studied in the elastic optical networks (EONs), rare research studies RSA for multicast in the network coding enabled EON, especially considering the time delay constraint. We propose an efficient heuristic algorithm, called Network Coding based Multicast Capable-Multipath Routing and Spectrum Allocation (NCMC-MRSA) to solve the multipath RSA for multicast services in the network coding enabled EON. The well-known layered graph approach is utilized for NCMC-MRSA, and two request ordering strategies are utilized for multiple multicast requests. From the simulation results, we observe that the proposed algorithm NCMC-MRSA performs more efficient spectrum utilization compared with the benchmark algorithms. NCMC-MRSA utilizing the spectrum request balancing (SRB) ordering strategy shows the most efficient spectrum utilization performance among other algorithms in most test networks. Note that we also observe that the efficiency of NCMC-MRSA shows more obvious than the benchmark algorithm in large networks. We also conduct the performance comparisons of two request ordering strategies for NCMC-MRSA. Besides, we also evaluate the impact of the number of the linkdisjoint parallel w paths on the spectrum utilization performance of the proposed algorithm NCMC-MRSA. It is interesting to find that the change of the parameter w in a certain range has a significant impact on the performance of NCMC-MRSA. As the parameter w increases to a certain value, the performances of NCMC-MRSA cannot be affected by the change of w any more.

Networks-on-chip (NoC) is emerging as a key technology to overcome severe bus traffics in ever-increasing complexity of the Multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoC); however traditional electrical interconnection based NoC architecture would be faced with technical limits of bandwidth and power consumptions in the near future. In order to cope with these problems, a hybrid optical NoC architecture which use both electrical interconnects and optical interconnects together, has been widely investigated. In the hybrid optical NoCs, wormhole switching and simple deterministic X-Y routing are used for the electrical interconnections which is responsible for the setup of routing path and optical router to transmit optical data through optical interconnects. Optical NoC uses circuit switching method to send payload data by preset paths and routers. However, conventional hybrid optical NoC has a drawback that concurrent transmissions are not allowed. Therefore, performance improvement is limited. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm that uses circuit switching and adaptive algorithm for the electrical interconnections to transmit data using multiple paths simultaneously. We also propose an efficient method to prevent livelock problems. Experimental results show up to 60% throughput improvement compared to a hybrid optical NoC and 65% power reduction compared to an electrical NoC.

In order to solve the difficulties of parameter settings in SA algorithm, an improved practical SA algorithm is proposed by employing the threading techniques, appropriate software structures, and dynamic adjustments of temperature parameters. Threads provide a mechanism to realize a parallel processing under a disperse environment by controlling the flux of internal information of an application. Thread services divide a process by multiple processes leading to parallel processing of information to access common data. Therefore, efficient search is achieved by multiple search processes, different initial conditions, and automatic temperature adjustments. The proposed are methods are evaluated, for three types of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) (random-tour, fractal-tour, and TSPLIB test data)are used for the performance evaluation. The experimental results show that the computational time is 5％ decreased comparing to conventional SA algorithm, furthermore there is no need for manual parameter settings. These results also demonstrate that the proposed method is applicable to real-world vehicle routing problems.

On demand of many users, basic networks of a parallel computer system are required to have a property that can embed various topologies. Bisectional interconnection network is known to satisfy this property, and it can embed various topologies optimally. Nowadays one is very interested in the hypercube as a message pssing multicomputer system, so it is very important to implement a hypercube in bisectional network. In this paper, a hypercube is implemented in a versatile bisecional netork, and its routing and broadcasting algorithm are proposed. Conventional bisectional network can accomodata linear array, complete binary tree and mesh structure as its topology. Now hypercube is implemented to be utilized as a general purpose supercomputercommunication architecture. The proposed routing and broadcasting algorithm embedded in bisectional network are general purpose algorithms which satisfy property of conventional hypercube.

The Gamma Network contains the redundant path thereby is provides the ability to tolerate the faults occured. However, in case of identical the source and destination number, only a single path exists, therefore there is no way of connecting for the fault situation. In addition, for the dynamic packet routing strategy, it shoed perform backtracking analysis to find the redundant path. In this paper we proposed a new network, Dual Network, to resolve these drawbacks. The Dual Network uses switching elements about the same network size as the Gamma Network except first and last stage, and it is more efficient than the Gamma Network, for it has reduced the switching stage by one. And since is used a destination tag routing scheme for the control algorithm, it has on advantage of becoming of simpler and faster routing control.

We proposed a XMESH(crossed-mesh) topology as a suitable interconnection for the massively parallel computer architectures, and presented performance analysis of the proposed interconnection topology. Horizontally, the XMESH has the same links as those of the toroidal mesh(TMESH) or toroid, but vertically, it has diagonal cross links instead of the vertical links. It reveals desirable interconnection characteristics for the massively parallel computers as the number of nodes increases, while retaining the same structural advantages of the TMESH such as the symmetric structure, periodic placement of subsystems, and constant degree, which are highly recommended features for VLSI/WSI implementations. Furthermore, n*k XMESH can be easily expanded without increasing the diameter as long as n.leq.k.leq.n+4. Analytical performance evaluations show that the XMESH has a shorter diameter, a shorter mean internode distance, and a higher message completion rate than the TMESH or the diagonal mesh(DMESH). To confirm these results, an optimal self-routing algorithm for the proposed topology is developed and is used to simulate the average delay, the maximum delay, and the throughput in the presence of contention. In all cases, the XMESH is shown to outperform the TMESH and the DMESH regardless of the communication load conditions or the number of nodes of the networks, and can provide an attractive alternative to those networks in implementing massively parallel computers.

One of the big differences between Network-on-Chip (NoC) and the existing parallel processing system based on an off-chip network is that data packet routing is performed using a centralized control scheme. In such an environment, the best-effort packet routing problem becomes a real-time assignment problem in which data packet arriving time and processing time is the cost. In this paper, the Hungarian algorithm, a representative computational complexity reduction algorithm for the linear algebraic equation of the allocation problem, is implemented in the form of a hardware accelerator. As a result of logic synthesis using the TSMC 0.18um standard cell library, the area of the circuit designed through case analysis for the cost distribution is reduced by about 16% and the propagation delay of it is reduced by about 52%, compared to the circuit implementing the original operation sequence of the Hungarian algorithm.
