By this method, the troublesome calculation of the correlation among the nodes, which is caused by the re-convergent fan-out in digital system, can be avoided and power estimation can be faster than simulation-based method in [1].展开更多

The EOBDD algorithm analyzes the common cause event (CCE) and the network structure when CCE takes place according to the stochastic graph and the CCF model of WSNs. After constructing the ordered binary decision diagram (OBDD) of the original network with node expansion, it uses a set of OBDD variables (SOV) to guide reliability computations along this OBDD. The two steps about OBDD can decrease the cost of OBDD constructions and storage. Furthermore, the efficient OBDD structure and Hash tables can greatly decrease redundant computations of isomorphs. The experiment results show that the EOBDD can be used to evaluate the reliability of WSN efficiently.展开更多

By this criterion it is easy and fast to determine which one is better when several. variable orders are given, especially when they differ 10% or more in resulted BDD size from each other. An adaptive variable order selection method, based on the short-time scaling criterion, is also presented. The experimental results show that this method is efficient and it makes the heuristic variable ordering methods more practical.展开更多
