In Wireless Sensor Network, various routing protocols were employed by our Research and Development community to improve the energy efficiency of a network as well as to control the traffic by considering the terms, i.e. Packet delivery rate, the average end-to-end delay, network routing load, average throughput, and total energy consumption. While maintaining network connectivity for a long-term duration, it's necessary that routing protocol must perform in an efficient way. As we discussed Optimized Link State Routing protocol between all of them, we find out that this protocol performs well in the large and dense networks, but with the decrease in network size then scalability of the network decreases. Whenever a link breakage is encountered, OLSR is not able to periodically update its routing table which may create a redundancy problem. To resolve this issue in the OLSR problem of redundancy and predict link breakage, an enhanced protocol, i.e. S-OLSR (More Scalable OLSR) protocol has been proposed. At the end, a comparison among different existing protocols, i.e. DSR, AODV, OLSR with the proposed protocol, i.e. S-OLSR is drawn by using the NS-2 simulator.

Bitcoin is the first application utilizing the blockchain, but it has limitations in terms of scalability. The concept of Lightning Network was recently introduced to address the scalability problem of Bitcoin. In this paper, we found that the real-world Bitcoin Lightning Network shows the scale-free property. Therefore, the Bitcoin Lightning Network can be vulnerable to the intentional attacks targeting some specific nodes in the network while it is still robust to the random node failures. We experimentally analyze the robustness of the Bitcoin's Lightning Network via the simulation of network attack model. Our simulation results demonstrate that the real-world Lightning Network is vulnerable to target attacks that destroy a few nodes with high degree.

In this paper, we propose a multiresolution progressive image transmission with spatial and bit-rate scalabilities using a $2{\times}2$ DCT. The multiresolition image represented by a $2{\times}2$ DCT is used for the progressive image transmission with spatial and bit-rate scalabilities. Because the proposed progressive image transmission method supports both spatial and bit-rate scalabilities, it can be adaptively applied to the receiver's scalability requests. We compare the proposed progressive transmission with that of the higher-order convolution-based Wavelet method. Comparisons show that the proposed method needs much less computations, but insignificant loss of image quality.

Many reliable group communication algorithms were presented to satisfy predetermined message ordering properties in small or medium-scale distributed systems. However, the previous algorithms with their strong reliability properties may be unappropriate for large-scale systems. To address this issue, some epidemic-style group communication algorithms were proposed for considerably improving scalability while guaranteeing the reasonably weaker reliability property than the existing ones. The algorithms are all designed for ensuring the atomic order message delivery property. But, some distributed applications such as multimedia systems and collaborative work, may require only the weaker message ordering property, i.e., causal order delivery. This paper proposes an efficient epidemic-style group communication algorithm ensuring causal order delivery to provide the indigenous scalability of the epidemic-style approach.

Real-time video communication applications over Internet should be able to support such functionality as scalability because of the unpredictable and varying channel bandwidth between server and client. To accommodatethe wide variety of channel bitrates, a new scalable coding tool, namely the Fine Granular Scalability (FGS) coding tool has been reduce the adopted In the MPEG-4 video standard. This paper presentsa new FGS algorithm with matching Pursuit that can reduce the computational complexity of ordinal matching pursuit-based algorithm. The Proposed coding algorithm can make trade-off between Picture Quality and computationalcomplexity. Our simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm can reduce the computational cumplexity up to 1/5 compared to the conventional FGS method while retaining a similar picture quality.

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.

The core of the cloud computing technology is the data center in that the networking technology is important. Cloud data centers are comprised of tens or even hundreds of thousands of physical servers, so networking technology is required for high-speed data transfer. These networking technologies also require scalability, fault tolerance, and agility. For these requirements, many multi-path based schemes have been proposed. However, it was mainly used for load balancing of traffic and select a path randomly. In this paper, a scheme that can construct a multipath using software defined networking technology and transmit the traffic in parallel by using the multipath to achieve a fast transmission speed, solve the scalability problem and fault tolerance is proposed.

Multimedia services(i.e. teleconferencing and Video on demand) have been developed on MBone. The video and audio data of them require Real-Time service using QoS(Quality of Service) guarantees. RSVP(Resource reSerVation Protocol) on the Internet has been suggested to support QoS guarantees. But currently, it has two problems : complexity and scalability. To solve these problems, this paper describes the design and implement of teleconferencing system with QoS guarantees by simplifying the resource reservation processing to solve the RSVP's complexity and scalability.

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) provide high-speed backbone networks without any wired cable. Many researchers have tried to increase network throughput by using multi-channel and multi-radio interfaces. A multi-radio multi-channel WMN requires channel assignment algorithm to decide the number of channels needed for each link. Since the channel assignment affects routing and interference directly, it is a critical component for enhancing network performance. However, the optimal channel assignment is known as a NP complete problem. For high performance, most of previous works assign channels in a centralized manner but they are limited in being applied for dynamic network environments. In this paper, we propose a simple flow estimation algorithm and a hybrid channel assignment algorithm. Our flow estimation algorithm obtains aggregated flow rate information between routers by packet sampling, thereby achieving high scalability. Our hybrid channel assignment algorithm initially assigns channels in a centralized manner first, and runs in a distributed manner to adjust channel assignment when notable traffic changes are detected. This approach provides high scalability and high performance compared with existing algorithms, and they are confirmed through extensive performance evaluations.
