Abstract: Traditional parallel single string matching algorithms
are always based on PRAM computation model. Those algorithms
concentrate on the cost optimal design and the theoretical speed.
Based on the distributed string matching algorithm proposed by
CHEN, a practical distributed string matching algorithm architecture
is proposed in this paper. And also an improved single string matching
algorithm based on a variant Boyer-Moore algorithm is presented. We
implement our algorithm on the above architecture and the
experiments prove that it is really practical and efficient on distributed
memory machine. Its computation complexity is O(n/p + m), where n
is the length of the text, and m is the length of the pattern, and p is the
number of the processors.
Abstract: Sensor relocation is to repair coverage holes caused by node failures. One way to repair coverage holes is to find redundant nodes to replace faulty nodes. Most researches took a long time to find redundant nodes since they randomly scattered redundant nodes around the sensing field. To record the precise position of sensor nodes, most researches assumed that GPS was installed in sensor nodes. However, high costs and power-consumptions of GPS are heavy burdens for sensor nodes. Thus, we propose a fast sensor relocation algorithm to arrange redundant nodes to form redundant walls without GPS. Redundant walls are constructed in the position where the average distance to each sensor node is the shortest. Redundant walls can guide sensor nodes to find redundant nodes in the minimum time. Simulation results show that our algorithm can find the proper redundant node in the minimum time and reduce the relocation time with low message complexity.
Abstract: The group mutual exclusion (GME) problem is an
interesting generalization of the mutual exclusion problem. Several
solutions of the GME problem have been proposed for message
passing distributed systems. However, none of these solutions is
suitable for real time distributed systems. In this paper, we propose a
token-based distributed algorithms for the GME problem in soft real
time distributed systems. The algorithm uses the concepts of priority
queue, dynamic request set and the process state. The algorithm uses
first come first serve approach in selecting the next session type
between the same priority levels and satisfies the concurrent
occupancy property. The algorithm allows all n processors to be
inside their CS provided they request for the same session. The
performance analysis and correctness proof of the algorithm has also
been included in the paper.
Abstract: Clustering algorithms help to understand the hidden
information present in datasets. A dataset may contain intrinsic and
nested clusters, the detection of which is of utmost importance. This
paper presents a Distributed Grid-based Density Clustering algorithm
capable of identifying arbitrary shaped embedded clusters as well as
multi-density clusters over large spatial datasets. For handling
massive datasets, we implemented our method using a 'sharednothing'
architecture where multiple computers are interconnected
over a network. Experimental results are reported to establish the
superiority of the technique in terms of scale-up, speedup as well as
cluster quality.
Abstract: The group mutual exclusion (GME) problem is an
interesting generalization of the mutual exclusion problem. In the
group mutual exclusion, multiple processes can enter a critical
section simultaneously if they belong to the same group. In the
extended group mutual exclusion, each process is a member of
multiple groups at the same time. As a result, after the process by
selecting a group enter critical section, other processes can select the
same group with its belonging group and can enter critical section at
the moment, so that it avoids their unnecessary blocking. This paper
presents a quorum-based distributed algorithm for the extended
group mutual exclusion problem. The message complexity of our
algorithm is O(4Q ) in the best case and O(5Q) in the worst case,
where Q is a quorum size.
Abstract: One of the key research issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is how to efficiently deploy sensors to cover an area. In this paper, we present a Fishnet Based Dispatch Scheme (FiBDS) with energy aware mobility and interest based sensing angle. We propose two algorithms, one is FiBDS centralized algorithm and another is FiBDS distributed algorithm. The centralized algorithm is designed specifically for the non-time critical applications, commonly known as non real-time applications while the distributed algorithm is designed specifically for the time critical applications, commonly known as real-time applications. The proposed dispatch scheme works in a phase-selection manner. In this in each phase a specific constraint is dealt with according to the specified priority and then moved onto the next phase and at the end of each only the best suited nodes for the phase are chosen. Simulation results are presented to verify their effectiveness.
