Abstract

One of the most important problems of clustering algorithms in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) is the relatively low stability in generated clusters which are resulted by rapid clusters destruction and high energy consumption in performing the re-clustering processes. Many algorithms have been provided to increase the clusters stability of which the most significant are weight-based algorithms. In weight-based algorithms, only limited information of each node is used to determine its weight and it causes that the best possible option for cluster-head is not selected. The purpose of this paper is providing one weight-based algorithm in which each node's weight determination is performed not only by using its node information but also its neighbor’s nodes information and this work is performed by determining the links' weight between nodes that provide connections between nodes. Via this method, the best possible options can be selected as cluster-head. In simulations and performed experiments, it is revealed that the generated clusters by our proposed algorithms have very high stability.

Abstract

In m-out-of-n system, if m-out-of-n modules agree, system can report consensus; otherwise, the system fails. On the other hand, in predictive hybrid system if there is no agreement, a history record of previous successful result(s) is used to predict the output. In order to analyze the availability of predictive hybrid redundancy system, Markov modeling is utilized. By using Markov model of the system in steady state, the availability is derived and compared with m-out-of-n system. The results of simulation demonstrated that the availability of predictive hybrid system is higher than m-out-of-n system especially for large m.
