A non-linear congestion network model for planning internal movement in the Hajj

A non-linear congestion network model is developed for the Hajj case. The Hajj is one of the World's largest mass movements, according to religious rituals. Every year about two and a half million people gather to perform religious rituals. The objective of the model is to minimize traffic congestion and overcrowding of holy sites. The constraints of the model are religious, spatial and time constraints. The model developed and applied for this case assisted in easing overcrowding and planning for expansions in routes and holy sites. The model is effective in providing quantitative background for general policy decision on the Hajj transportation.     

Control and recovery from rare congestion events in a large multi-server system

We develop deterministic fluid approximations to describe the recovery from rare congestion events in a large multi-server system in which customer holding times have a general distribution. There are two cases, depending on whether or not we exploit the age distribution (the distribution of elapsed holding times of customers in service). If we do not exploit the age distribution, then the rare congestion event is a large number of customers present. If we do exploit the age distribution, then the rare event is an unusual age distribution, possibly accompanied by a large number of customers present. As an approximation, we represent the large multi-server system as an M/G/∞ model. We prove that, under regularity conditions, the fluid approximations are asymptotically correct as the arrival rate increases. The fluid approximations show the impact upon the recovery time of the holding-time distribution beyond its mean. The recovery time may or not be affected by the holding-time distribution having a long tail, depending on the precise definition of recovery. The fluid approximations can be used to analyze various overload control schemes, such as reducing the arrival rate or interrupting services in progress. We also establish large deviations principles to show that the two kinds of rare events have the same exponentially small order. We give numerical examples showing the effect of the holding-time distribution and the age distribution, focusing especially on the consequences of long-tail distributions.

Chapter 1 Introduction: Extensions and new developments in DEA

The extensions, new developments and new interpretations for DEA covered in this paper include: (1) new measures of efficiency, (2) new models and (3) new ways of implementing established models with new results and interpretations presented that include treatments of congestion, returns-to-scale and mix and technical inefficiencies and measures of efficiency that can be used to reflect all pertinent properties. Previously used models, such as those used to identify allocative inefficiencies, are extended by means of assurance region approaches which are less demanding in their information requirements and underlying assumptions. New opportunities for research are identified in each section of this chapter. Sources of further developments and possible sources for further help are also suggested with references supplied to other papers that appear in this volume and which are summarily described in this introductory chapter.     

Adaptive load distribution approach based on congestion control scheme in ad-hoc networks

The ‘load distribution’ proposition in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) is accomplishing great stimulation. This is because of the phenomenal facets it possesses including advanced network resilience, reliability and performance. Though there are other leading network layer routing protocols, but they radically utilise single-path communication paradigm, which is why they fail in achieving efficient load distribution in a network. Via this paper, we propose an efficient cross-layer adaptive load distribution approach to capitalise network’s channel utilisation and to rapidly adapt to dynamic wireless channel characteristic changes. The proposed method modifies the load balanced congestion adaptive routing (LBCAR) protocol and is developed using dynamic load distribution technique, by pioneering (i) novel parameters, which report for the availability of route pertaining to minimum traffic load and better link lifetime and also adapt according to varying available network resources; (ii) an absolute dynamic method to lessen the redundant route oscillations which further reduces the routing instabilities. The simulation results demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method and yields better results in comparison to LBCAR and standard instead of dynamic ource outing, it is dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol.     

Geographical routing and participant collaboration model based communication mechanism of WSAN

The communication mechanism of wireless sensor and actor network (WSAN) was studied.Firstly,a proactive location management mechanism based on the update messages sent by mobile actors to sensors and the actors’ scope limited by Voronoi diagram was proposed.Thus,sensors predicted the movement of actors using Kalman filtering of the previously received updates.Then,an optimal energy-aware forwarding rule based on geographical routing was presented for sensor-actor communication,and the delay of the data delivery process was controlled using the power control and the network congestion was dealed with by forcing multiple actors to share the traffic generated in the event area.Finally,based on the characteristics of multiple concurrent events,a model for actor-actor coordination was proposed to coordinate their movements in order to optimally accomplish the tasks.Performance simulation results show that the proposed cooperative communication mechanism for WSAN can effectively reduce end-to-end delays,energy consumption and percentage of packet drops.
