SMAC protocol is a famous energy-efficient MAC protocol. Based on SMAC protocol, we find that the boundary nodes in the cluster-shaped synchronization structure bring energy consumption seriously, and provide a virtual cluster aggregation (VCA) algorithm. Because the bounder node follows multiple schedules in one cycle, it may deplete earlier and cause segmentation in wireless sensor networks. The algorithm reduces energy consumption of boundary nodes and extends the lifetime of entire sensor network by merging different virtual clusters, but increases the data transmission delay. Because the sensor nodes have the fixed duty cycle, the larger the coverage area of network is, the greater the data transmission delay increases. We propose the dynamic duty cycle (DDC) algorithm to solve this effect. When the network load and data transmission delay increase, the DDC algorithm exponentially changes the duty cycle of the node to reduce latency. The simulation results show that the performance of SMAC with the VCA and DDC algorithm obtains improvement significantly.展开更多

文摘Energy efficiency stands as an essential factor when implementing deep reinforcement learning(DRL)policies for robotic control systems.Standard algorithms,including Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient(DDPG),primarily optimize task rewards but at the cost of excessively high energy consumption,making them impractical for real-world robotic systems.To address this limitation,we propose Physics-Informed DDPG(PI-DDPG),which integrates physics-based energy penalties to develop energy-efficient yet high-performing control policies.The proposed method introduces adaptive physics-informed constraints through a dynamic weighting factor(λ),enabling policies that balance reward maximization with energy savings.Our motivation is to overcome the impracticality of rewardonly optimization by designing controllers that achieve competitive performance while substantially reducing energy consumption.PI-DDPG was evaluated in nine MuJoCo continuous control environments,where it demonstrated significant improvements in energy efficiency without compromising stability or performance.Experimental results confirm that PI-DDPG substantially reduces energy consumption compared to standard DDPG,while maintaining competitive task performance.For instance,energy costs decreased from 5542.98 to 3119.02 in HalfCheetah-v4 and from1909.13 to 1586.75 in Ant-v4,with stable performance in Hopper-v4(205.95 vs.130.82)and InvertedPendulum-v4(322.97 vs.311.29).Although DDPG sometimes yields higher rewards,such as in HalfCheetah-v4(5695.37 vs.4894.59),it requires significantly greater energy expenditure.These results highlight PI-DDPG as a promising energy-conscious alternative for robotic control.

文摘In the manufacturing industry,reasonable scheduling can greatly improve production efficiency,while excessive resource consumption highlights the growing significance of energy conservation in production.This paper studies the problem of energy-efficient distributed heterogeneous permutation flowshop problem with variable processing speed(DHPFSP-VPS),considering both the minimum makespan and total energy consumption(TEC)as objectives.A discrete multi-objective squirrel search algorithm(DMSSA)is proposed to solve the DHPFSPVPS.DMSSA makes four improvements based on the squirrel search algorithm.Firstly,in terms of the population initialization strategy,four hybrid initialization methods targeting different objectives are proposed to enhance the quality of initial solutions.Secondly,enhancements are made to the population hierarchy system and position updating methods of the squirrel search algorithm,making it more suitable for discrete scheduling problems.Additionally,regarding the search strategy,six local searches are designed based on problem characteristics to enhance search capability.Moreover,a dynamic predator strategy based on Q-learning is devised to effectively balance DMSSA’s capability for global exploration and local exploitation.Finally,two speed control energy-efficient strategies are designed to reduce TEC.Extensive comparative experiments are conducted in this paper to validate the effectiveness of the proposed strategies.The results of comparing DMSSA with other algorithms demonstrate its superior performance and its potential for efficient solving of the DHPFSP-VPS problem.

文摘This paper presents an Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm for direct numerical simulation(DNS)of particle-laden flows.The algorithm is applicable to perform simulations of dilute suspensions of small inertial particles in turbulent carrier flow.The Eulerian framework numerically resolves turbulent carrier flow using a parallelized,finite-volume DNS solver on a staggered Cartesian grid.Particles are tracked using a point-particle method utilizing a Lagrangian particle tracking(LPT)algorithm.The proposed Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm is validated using an inertial particle-laden turbulent channel flow for different Stokes number cases.The particle concentration profiles and higher-order statistics of the carrier and dispersed phases agree well with the benchmark results.We investigated the effect of fluid velocity interpolation and numerical integration schemes of particle tracking algorithms on particle dispersion statistics.The suitability of fluid velocity interpolation schemes for predicting the particle dispersion statistics is discussed in the framework of the particle tracking algorithm coupled to the finite-volume solver.In addition,we present parallelization strategies implemented in the algorithm and evaluate their parallel performance.

文摘The limited energy and high mobility of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)lead to drastic topology changes in UAV formation.The existing routing protocols necessitate a large number of messages for route discovery and maintenance,greatly increasing network delay and control overhead.A energyefficient routing method based on the discrete timeaggregated graph(TAG)theory is proposed since UAV formation is a defined time-varying network.The network is characterized using the TAG,which utilizes the prior knowledge in UAV formation.An energyefficient routing algorithm is designed based on TAG,considering the link delay,relative mobility,and residual energy of UAVs.The routing path is determined with global network information before requesting communication.Simulation results demonstrate that the routing method can improve the end-to-end delay,packet delivery ratio,routing control overhead,and residual energy.Consequently,introducing timevarying graphs to design routing algorithms is more effective for UAV formation.
文摘Aiming to solve the steering instability and hysteresis of agricultural robots in the process of movement,a fusion PID control method of particle swarm optimization(PSO)and genetic algorithm(GA)was proposed.The fusion algorithm took advantage of the fast optimization ability of PSO to optimize the population screening link of GA.The Simulink simulation results showed that the convergence of the fitness function of the fusion algorithm was accelerated,the system response adjustment time was reduced,and the overshoot was almost zero.Then the algorithm was applied to the steering test of agricultural robot in various scenes.After modeling the steering system of agricultural robot,the steering test results in the unloaded suspended state showed that the PID control based on fusion algorithm reduced the rise time,response adjustment time and overshoot of the system,and improved the response speed and stability of the system,compared with the artificial trial and error PID control and the PID control based on GA.The actual road steering test results showed that the PID control response rise time based on the fusion algorithm was the shortest,about 4.43 s.When the target pulse number was set to 100,the actual mean value in the steady-state regulation stage was about 102.9,which was the closest to the target value among the three control methods,and the overshoot was reduced at the same time.The steering test results under various scene states showed that the PID control based on the proposed fusion algorithm had good anti-interference ability,it can adapt to the changes of environment and load and improve the performance of the control system.It was effective in the steering control of agricultural robot.This method can provide a reference for the precise steering control of other robots.

文摘The MAC protocol design for wireless sensor networks has been researched and developed for decades. SMAC protocol is a famous energy-efficient MAC protocol. Based on SMAC protocol, we find that the boundary nodes in the cluster-shaped synchronization structure bring energy consumption seriously, and provide a virtual cluster aggregation (VCA) algorithm. Because the bounder node follows multiple schedules in one cycle, it may deplete earlier and cause segmentation in wireless sensor networks. The algorithm reduces energy consumption of boundary nodes and extends the lifetime of entire sensor network by merging different virtual clusters, but increases the data transmission delay. Because the sensor nodes have the fixed duty cycle, the larger the coverage area of network is, the greater the data transmission delay increases. We propose the dynamic duty cycle (DDC) algorithm to solve this effect. When the network load and data transmission delay increase, the DDC algorithm exponentially changes the duty cycle of the node to reduce latency. The simulation results show that the performance of SMAC with the VCA and DDC algorithm obtains improvement significantly.

文摘A reduction in network energy consumption and the establishment of green networks have become key scientific problems in academic and industrial research.Existing energy efficiency schemes are based on a known traffic matrix,and acquiring a real-time traffic matrix in current complex networks is difficult.Therefore,this research investigates how to reduce network energy consumption without a real-time traffic matrix.In particular,this paper proposes an intra-domain energy-efficient routing scheme based on multipath routing.It analyzes the relationship between routing availability and energy-efficient routing and integrates the two mechanisms to satisfy the requirements of availability and energy efficiency.The main research focus is as follows:(1)A link criticality model is evaluated to quantitatively measure the importance of links in a network.(2)On the basis of the link criticality model,this paper analyzes an energy-efficient routing technology based on multipath routing to achieve the goals of availability and energy efficiency simultaneously.(3)An energy-efficient routing algorithm based on multipath routing in large-scale networks is proposed.(4)The proposed method does not require a real-time traffic matrix in the network and is thus easy to apply in practice.(5)The proposed algorithm is verified in several network topologies.Experimental results show that the algorithm can not only reduce network energy consumption but can also ensure routing availability.

文摘In recent years,fog computing has become an important environment for dealing with the Internet of Things.Fog computing was developed to handle large-scale big data by scheduling tasks via cloud computing.Task scheduling is crucial for efficiently handling IoT user requests,thereby improving system performance,cost,and energy consumption across nodes in cloud computing.With the large amount of data and user requests,achieving the optimal solution to the task scheduling problem is challenging,particularly in terms of cost and energy efficiency.In this paper,we develop novel strategies to save energy consumption across nodes in fog computing when users execute tasks through the least-cost paths.Task scheduling is developed using modified artificial ecosystem optimization(AEO),combined with negative swarm operators,Salp Swarm Algorithm(SSA),in order to competitively optimize their capabilities during the exploitation phase of the optimal search process.In addition,the proposed strategy,Enhancement Artificial Ecosystem Optimization Salp Swarm Algorithm(EAEOSSA),attempts to find the most suitable solution.The optimization that combines cost and energy for multi-objective task scheduling optimization problems.The backpack problem is also added to improve both cost and energy in the iFogSim implementation as well.A comparison was made between the proposed strategy and other strategies in terms of time,cost,energy,and productivity.Experimental results showed that the proposed strategy improved energy consumption,cost,and time over other algorithms.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm increases the average cost,average energy consumption,and mean service time in most scenarios,with average reductions of up to 21.15%in cost and 25.8%in energy consumption.
文摘Optimization is the key to obtaining efficient utilization of resources in structural design.Due to the complex nature of truss systems,this study presents a method based on metaheuristic modelling that minimises structural weight under stress and frequency constraints.Two new algorithms,the Red Kite Optimization Algorithm(ROA)and Secretary Bird Optimization Algorithm(SBOA),are utilized on five benchmark trusses with 10,18,37,72,and 200-bar trusses.Both algorithms are evaluated against benchmarks in the literature.The results indicate that SBOA always reaches a lighter optimal.Designs with reducing structural weight ranging from 0.02%to 0.15%compared to ROA,and up to 6%–8%as compared to conventional algorithms.In addition,SBOA can achieve 15%–20%faster convergence speed and 10%–18%reduction in computational time with a smaller standard deviation over independent runs,which demonstrates its robustness and reliability.It is indicated that the adaptive exploration mechanism of SBOA,especially its Levy flight–based search strategy,can obviously improve optimization performance for low-and high-dimensional trusses.The research has implications in the context of promoting bio-inspired optimization techniques by demonstrating the viability of SBOA,a reliable model for large-scale structural design that provides significant enhancements in performance and convergence behavior.

文摘Energy conservation is a significant task in the Internet of Things(IoT)because IoT involves highly resource-constrained devices.Clustering is an effective technique for saving energy by reducing duplicate data.In a clustering protocol,the selection of a cluster head(CH)plays a key role in prolonging the lifetime of a network.However,most cluster-based protocols,including routing protocols for low-power and lossy networks(RPLs),have used fuzzy logic and probabilistic approaches to select the CH node.Consequently,early battery depletion is produced near the sink.To overcome this issue,a lion optimization algorithm(LOA)for selecting CH in RPL is proposed in this study.LOA-RPL comprises three processes:cluster formation,CH selection,and route establishment.A cluster is formed using the Euclidean distance.CH selection is performed using LOA.Route establishment is implemented using residual energy information.An extensive simulation is conducted in the network simulator ns-3 on various parameters,such as network lifetime,power consumption,packet delivery ratio(PDR),and throughput.The performance of LOA-RPL is also compared with those of RPL,fuzzy rule-based energyefficient clustering and immune-inspired routing(FEEC-IIR),and the routing scheme for IoT that uses shuffled frog-leaping optimization algorithm(RISARPL).The performance evaluation metrics used in this study are network lifetime,power consumption,PDR,and throughput.The proposed LOARPL increases network lifetime by 20%and PDR by 5%–10%compared with RPL,FEEC-IIR,and RISA-RPL.LOA-RPL is also highly energy-efficient compared with other similar routing protocols.

文摘The Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a security mechanism developed to observe network traffic and recognize suspicious or malicious activities.Clustering algorithms are often incorporated into IDS;however,conventional clustering-based methods face notable drawbacks,including poor scalability in handling high-dimensional datasets and a strong dependence of outcomes on initial conditions.To overcome the performance limitations of existing methods,this study proposes a novel quantum-inspired clustering algorithm that relies on a similarity coefficient-based quantum genetic algorithm(SC-QGA)and an improved quantum artificial bee colony algorithm hybrid K-means(IQABC-K).First,the SC-QGA algorithmis constructed based on quantum computing and integrates similarity coefficient theory to strengthen genetic diversity and feature extraction capabilities.For the subsequent clustering phase,the process based on the IQABC-K algorithm is enhanced with the core improvement of adaptive rotation gate and movement exploitation strategies to balance the exploration capabilities of global search and the exploitation capabilities of local search.Simultaneously,the acceleration of convergence toward the global optimum and a reduction in computational complexity are facilitated by means of the global optimum bootstrap strategy and a linear population reduction strategy.Through experimental evaluation with multiple algorithms and diverse performance metrics,the proposed algorithm confirms reliable accuracy on three datasets:KDD CUP99,NSL_KDD,and UNSW_NB15,achieving accuracy of 98.57%,98.81%,and 98.32%,respectively.These results affirm its potential as an effective solution for practical clustering applications.

文摘In this paper,we propose a new privacy-aware transmission scheduling algorithm for 6G ad hoc networks.This system enables end nodes to select the optimum time and scheme to transmit private data safely.In 6G dynamic heterogeneous infrastructures,unstable links and non-uniform hardware capabilities create critical issues regarding security and privacy.Traditional protocols are often too computationally heavy to allow 6G services to achieve their expected Quality-of-Service(QoS).As the transport network is built of ad hoc nodes,there is no guarantee about their trustworthiness or behavior,and transversal functionalities are delegated to the extreme nodes.However,while security can be guaranteed in extreme-to-extreme solutions,privacy cannot,as all intermediate nodes still have to handle the data packets they are transporting.Besides,traditional schemes for private anonymous ad hoc communications are vulnerable against modern intelligent attacks based on learning models.The proposed scheme fulfills this gap.Findings show the probability of a successful intelligent attack reduces by up to 65%compared to ad hoc networks with no privacy protection strategy when used the proposed technology.While congestion probability can remain below 0.001%,as required in 6G services.
