Energy saving proactive neighbor discovery algorithm in mobile low-duty-cycle wireless sensor network by Junbin LIANG, Xiang ZHOU, Taoshen LI

“…Mobile low-duty-cycle wireless sensor network is a new kind of wireless multi-hop network,which is self-organized by a large number of nodes that have mobile ability and are able to get into sleep for a long time.Such networks have wide application prospects in national defense,industry,agriculture and other fields that need long term monitoring in severe environments.However,the movement and the sleeping features of nodes lead to constantly change of network topology,which makes the nodes difficult to discover their neighbors quickly.Therefore,the nodes cannot achieve optimal distribution decisions.In order to solve this problem,a new proactive neighbor discovery algorithm was proposed.This algorithm made the nodes in the network take the initiative to find their neighbors when they woke up,and avoided the delay caused by long time waiting in the traditional passive neighbor discovery.In addition,by predicting the movement speed and distance of neighbors,the neighbor set at the next moment can be quickly determined,which can further reduce the delay and obtain more accurate neighbor discovery results.Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that compared with the existing algorithms,the algorithm can find all the neighbors in MLDC-WSN with less energy consumption and lower delay.…”

Comprehensive influence evaluation algorithm of complex network nodes based on global-local attributes by Weijin JIANG, Ying YANG, Tiantian LUO, Wenying ZHOU, En LI, Xiaowei ZHANG

“…Mining key nodes in the network plays a great role in the evolution of information dissemination, virus marketing, and public opinion control, etc.The identification of key nodes can effectively help to control network attacks, detect financial risks, suppress the spread of viruses diseases and rumors, and prevent terrorist attacks.In order to break through the limitations of existing node influence assessment methods with high algorithmic complexity and low accuracy, as well as one-sided perspective of assessing the intrinsic action mechanism of evaluation metrics, a comprehensive influence (CI) assessment algorithm for identifying critical nodes was proposed, which simultaneously processes the local and global topology of the network to perform node importance.The global attributes in the algorithm consider the information entropy of neighboring nodes and the shortest distance nodes between nodes to represent the local attributes of nodes, and the weight ratio of global and local attributes was adjusted by a parameter.By using the SIR (susceptible infected recovered) model and Kendall correlation coefficient as evaluation criteria, experimental analysis on real-world networks of different scales shows that the proposed method is superior to some well-known heuristic algorithms such as betweenness centrality (BC), closeness centrality (CC), gravity index centrality(GIC), and global structure model (GSM), and has better ranking monotonicity, more stable metric results, more adaptable to network topologies, and is applicable to most of the real networks with different structure of real networks.…”
