Energy efficient multi-target tracking in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011)Tracking multiple targets in an energy efficient way is an important challenge in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). While most of the prior work consider tracking multiple targets as execution of single target tracking ... -
IP/MPLS over OTN over DWDM multilayer networks: optimization models, algorithms, and analyses
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-05-24)Over the past decade, multilayer network design has received significant attention in the scientific literature. However, the explicit modeling of IP/MPLS over OTN over DWDM in which the OTN layer is specifically considered ... -
Network partition for switched industrial ethernet using combined search heuristics
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-06-06)A large industrial company needs a cost efficient telecommunication network to support heavy telecommunication needs among its different departments which are distributed in various locations. Because of the huge amount ... -
A new constraint-based algorithm to learn Bayesian network structure from data: Control of Spurious Pairwise Information (CSPI)
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-06-01)A Bayesian network is a directed acyclic graphical representation of a set of variables. This representation occupies the middle ground between a causal network and a simple list of pairwise correlations by including ... -
Quality of service and channel-aware packet bundling for capacity improvement in cellular networks
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-05-26)We study the problem of multiple packet bundling to improve spectral efficiency in cellular networks. The packet size of real-time data, such as VoIP, is often very small. However, the common use of time division ... -
Scheduling schemes for throughput optimization in wireless adhoc networks using directional antennas
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-06-09)This thesis presents a scheme for scheduling of wireless adhoc networks by using directional antennas using the concept of frequency reuse. The idea of wireless adhoc network communication is taken one step further by ... -
Topic network: a semantic model for effective learning
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-06-08)There has been tremendous interest in sharing and retrieving information through the Web. A search engine can be used to retrieve relevant web documents. However, the sheer volume of results returned often requires ...
