Abstract The current resource allocation in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication faces several challenges, such as low user utilization, unbalanced resource allocation, and extended adaptive allocation time. We propose an adaptive allocation algorithm for mobile cloud communication resources in 5G vehicular networks to address these issues. This study analyzes the components of the 5G vehicular network architecture to determine the performance of different components. It is ascertained that the communication modes in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication include in-band and out-of-band modes. Furthermore, this study analyzes the single-hop and multi-hop modes in… More >

Abstract We are investigating the distributed optimization problem, where a network of nodes works together to minimize a global objective that is a finite sum of their stored local functions. Since nodes exchange optimization parameters through the wireless network, large-scale training models can create communication bottlenecks, resulting in slower training times. To address this issue, CHOCO-SGD was proposed, which allows compressing information with arbitrary precision without reducing the convergence rate for strongly convex objective functions. Nevertheless, most convex functions are not strongly convex (such as logistic regression or Lasso), which raises the question of whether this… More >

Abstract Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely used for various practical applications due to their simplicity and versatility. The quality of service in WSNs is greatly influenced by the coverage, which directly affects the monitoring capacity of the target region. However, low WSN coverage and uneven distribution of nodes in random deployments pose significant challenges. This study proposes an optimal node planning strategy for network coverage based on an adjusted single candidate optimizer (ASCO) to address these issues. The single candidate optimizer (SCO) is a metaheuristic algorithm with stable implementation procedures. However, it has limitations in More >

Abstract Two novel improved variants of reptile search algorithm (RSA), RSA with opposition-based learning (ORSA) and hybrid ORSA with pattern search (ORSAPS), are proposed to determine the proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controller parameters of an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) system using a novel objective function with augmented flexibility. In the proposed algorithms, the opposition-based learning technique improves the global search abilities of the original RSA algorithm, while the hybridization with the pattern search (PS) algorithm improves the local search abilities. Both algorithms are compared with the original RSA algorithm and have shown to be highly… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Software-defined networking (SDN) algorithms are gaining increasing interest and are making networks flexible and agile. The basic idea of SDN is to move the control planes to more than one server’s named controllers and limit the data planes to numerous sending network components, enabling flexible and dynamic network management. A distinctive characteristic of SDN is that it can logically centralize the control plane by utilizing many physical controllers. The deployment of the controller—that is, the controller placement problem (CPP)—becomes a vital model challenge. Through the advancements of blockchain technology, data integrity between nodes can be… More >

Abstract Smart grids and their technologies transform the traditional electric grids to assure safe, secure, cost-effective, and reliable power transmission. Non-linear phenomena in power systems, such as voltage collapse and oscillatory phenomena, can be investigated by chaos theory.
