Improved Load-Balanced Clustering for Energy-Aware Routing(ILBC-EAR)in WSNs

Sensors are considered as important elements of electronic devices.In many applications and service,Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs)are involved in significant data sharing that are delivered to the sink node in energy efficient man-ner using multi-hop communications.But,the major challenge in WSN is the nodes are having limited battery resources,it is important to monitor the consumption rate of energy is very much needed.However,reducing energy con-sumption can increase the network lifetime in effective manner.For that,clustering methods are widely used for optimizing the rate of energy consumption among the sensor nodes.In that concern,this paper involves in deriving a novel model called Improved Load-Balanced Clustering for Energy-Aware Routing(ILBC-EAR),which mainly concentrates on optimal energy utilization with load-balanced process among cluster heads and member nodes.For providing equal rate of energy consumption among nodes,the dimensions of framed clusters are measured.Moreover,the model develops a Finest Routing Scheme based on Load-Balanced Clustering to transmit the sensed information to the sink or base station.The evaluation results depict that the derived energy aware model attains higher rate of life time than other works and also achieves balanced energy rate among head node.Additionally,the model also provides higher throughput and minimal delay in delivering data packets.

Approximation Algorithm for the Balanced 2-Correlation Clustering Problem

The Correlation Clustering Problem(CorCP) is a significant clustering problem based on the similarity of data.It has significant applications in different fields,such as machine learning,biology,and data mining,and many different problems in other areas.In this paper,the Balanced 2-CorCP(B2-CorCP) is introduced and examined,and a new interesting variant of the CorCP is described.The goal of this clustering problem is to partition the vertex set into two clusters with equal size,such that the number of disagreements is minimized.We first present a polynomial time algorithm for the B2-CorCP on M-positive edge dominant graphs(M≥ 3).Then,we provide a series of numerical experiments,and the results show the effectiveness of our algorithm.

Genetic-Chicken Swarm Algorithm for Minimizing Energy in Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless Sensor Network(WSN)technology is the real-time applica-tion that is growing rapidly as the result of smart environments.Battery power is one of the most significant resources in WSN.For enhancing a power factor,the clustering techniques are used.During the forward of data in WSN,more power is consumed.In the existing system,it works with Load Balanced Cluster-ing Method(LBCM)and provides the lifespan of the network with scalability and reliability.In the existing system,it does not deal with end-to-end delay and deliv-ery of packets.For overcoming these issues in WSN,the proposed Genetic Algo-rithm based on Chicken Swarm Optimization(GA-CSO)with Load Balanced Clustering Method(LBCM)is used.Genetic Algorithm generates chromosomes in an arbitrary method then the chromosomes values are calculated using Fitness Function.Chicken Swarm Optimization(CSO)helps to solve the complex opti-mization problems.Also,it consists of chickens,hens,and rooster.It divides the chicken into clusters.Load Balanced Clustering Method(LBCM)maintains the energy during communication among the sensor nodes and also it balances the load in the gateways.The proposed GA-CSO with LBCM improves the life-span of the network.Moreover,it minimizes the energy consumption and also bal-ances the load over the network.The proposed method outperforms by using the following metrics such as energy efficiency,ratio of packet delivery,throughput of the network,lifetime of the sensor nodes.Therefore,the evaluation result shows the energy efficiency that has achieved 83.56%and the delivery ratio of the packet has reached 99.12%.Also,it has attained linear standard deviation and reduced the end-to-end delay as 97.32 ms.

Space decomposition based parallelization solutions for the combined finiteediscrete element method in 2D

The combined finiteediscrete element method （FDEM） belongs to a family of methods of computationalmechanics of discontinua. The method is suitable for problems of discontinua, where particles aredeformable and can fracture or fragment. The applications of FDEM have spread over a number of disciplinesincluding rock mechanics, where problems like mining, mineral processing or rock blasting canbe solved by employing FDEM. In this work, a novel approach for the parallelization of two-dimensional（2D） FDEM aiming at clusters and desktop computers is developed. Dynamic domain decompositionbased parallelization solvers covering all aspects of FDEM have been developed. These have beenimplemented into the open source Y2D software package and have been tested on a PC cluster. Theoverall performance and scalability of the parallel code have been studied using numerical examples. Theresults obtained confirm the suitability of the parallel implementation for solving large scale problems. 2014 Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Simplified Cluster Voltage Balancing Control Based on Zero-sequence Voltage Injection for Star-connected Cascaded H-bridge STATCOM

The cluster DC voltage balancing control adopting zero-sequence voltage injection is appropriate for the starconnected cascaded H-bridge STATCOM because no zerosequence currents are generated in the three-phase three-wire system.However,as the zero-sequence voltage is expressed in trigonometric form,traditional control methods involve many complicated operations,such as the square-root,trigonometric operations,and inverse tangent operations.To simplify cluster voltage balancing control,this paper converts the zero-sequence voltage to the dq frame in a DC representation by introducing a virtually orthogonal variable,and the DC components of the zero-sequence voltage in the dq frame are regulated linearly by proportional integral regulators,rather than being calculated from uneven active powers in traditional controls.This removes all complicated operations.Finally,this paper presents simulation and experimental results for a 400 V±7.5 kvar star-connected STATCOM,in balanced and unbalanced scenarios,thereby verifying the effectiveness of the proposed control.
