<p>An ISP style network often has a particular traffic pattern not typically seen in other networks and which is a direct result of the ISP’s purpose, to connect internal clients with a high speed external link. Such a network is likely to consist of a backbone with the clients on one ‘side’ and one or more external links on the other. Most traffic on the network moves between an internal client and the external world via the backbone. But what about traffic between two clients of the ISP? Typical routing protocols will find the ‘best’ path between the two gateway routers at the edge of the client stub networks. As these routers connect the stubs to the ISP core, this route should be entirely within the ISP network. Ideally, from the ISP point of view, this traffic will go up to the backbone and down again but it is possible that it may find another route along a redundant backup path. Don Stokes of Knossos Networks has developed a protocol to sit on the client fringes of this ISP style of network. It is based on the distance vector algorithm and is intended to be subordinate to the existing interior gateway protocol running on the ISPs backbone. It manipulates the route cost calculation so that paths towards the backbone become very cheap and paths away from the backbone become expensive. This forces traffic in the preferred direction unless the backup path ‘shortcut’ is very attractive or the backbone link has disappeared. It is the analysis and development of the fringe routing protocol that forms the content of this ME thesis.</p>

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a comparison between reluctance synchronous machine-enabling work at high internal temperature (HT° machine) with laminated and solid rotor. Design/methodology/approach To obtain heat sources for the thermal model, calculations of the electromagnetic field were made using the Opera 3D program including effect of rotation and the resulting eddy current losses. To analyse the thermal phenomenon, the 3D coupled thermal-fluid (CFD) model is used. Findings The presented results show clearly that laminated construction is much better from a point of view of efficiency and temperature. However, solid construction can be interesting for high speed machines due to their mechanical robustness. Research limitations/implications The main problem, despite the use of parallel calculations, is the long calculation time. Practical implications The obtained simulation and experimental results show the possibility of building a machine operating at a much higher ambient temperature than it was previously produced for example in the vicinity of the aircraft turbines. Originality/value The paper presents the application of fully three-dimensional coupled electromagnetic and thermal analysis of new machine constructions designed for elevated temperature.

Background: Research is ongoing relating to the analysis of a set of issues that arise in connection with the creation of the operating on the basis of vacuum magnetic technologies a transcontinental high-speed land transport corridor, connecting the eastern regions of China with Russia. As part of the variation calculus task, the geopolitical, economic, social, logistic, geographic, geomorphological, seismological, topographic components of the project are considered, in which it is assumed that the high speed overland route will pass through the north-western part of the historical region of Dzungaria. Aim: Find the most optimal from the point of view of the above components the location of the most important section of high speed overland route passing through Central Asia. Methods: Variational methods for solving an optimization problem with the use of a computer math system. Results: After creating a fairly informative and versatile picture of the region in question, the foundations of the corresponding mathematical models are built. Conclusion: The New Dzungarian Gates is a key element in choosing the location of a high-speed overland route based on VMLT.

The key attribute that distinguishes Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET) from Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is scale. While MANET networks involve up to one hundred nodes and are short lived, being deployed in support of special-purpose operations, VANET networks involve millions of vehicles on thousands of kilometers of highways and city streets. Being mission-driven, MANET mobility is inherently limited by the application at hand. In most MANET applications, mobility occurs at low speed. By contrast, VANET networks involve vehicles that move at high speed, often well beyond what is reasonable or legally stipulated. Given the scale of its mobility and number of actors involved, the topology of VANET is changing constantly and, as a result, both individual links and routing paths are inherently unstable. Motivated by this latter truism, the authors propose a probability model for link duration based on realistic vehicular dynamics and radio propagation assumptions. The paper illustrates how the proposed model can be incorporated in a routing protocol, which results in paths that are easier to construct and maintain. Extensive simulation results confirm that this probabilistic routing protocol results in more easily maintainable paths.

3D ICs promise “more than Moore” integration by packing a lot of functionality into small form factors. Interposers along with TSVs play an important role in 3D integration from an electrical, thermal and mechanical point of view. The goal of this paper is to electrically model TSVs and 3D interposers by means of three 3D full wave electromagnetic simulations. A comparative analysis of various configurations of signal delivery networks in 3D interposers for high speed signal transmission is presented.

Recently, the flying ad-hoc network (FANETs) is a popular networking technology used to create a wireless network through unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In this network, the UAV nodes work as intermediate nodes that communicate with each other to transmit data packets over the network, in the absence of fixed an infrastructure. Due to high mobility degree of UAV nodes, network formation and deformation among the UAVs are very frequent. Therefore, effective routing is a more challenging issue in FANETs. This paper presents performance evaluations and comparisons of the popular topology-based routing protocol namely AODV and position-based routing protocol, namely LAR for high speed mobility as well as a verity of the density of UAV nodes in the FANETs environment through NS-2 simulator. The extensive simulation results have shown that LAR gives better performance than AODV significantly in terms of the packet delivery ratio, normalized routing overhead, end-to-end delay, and average throughput, which make it a more effective routing protocol for the highly dynamic nature of FANETs.

Train stop planning provides appropriate service for travel demand and stations and plays a significant role in railway operation. This paper formulates stop planning from the point of view of direct travel between origin-destination (O-D) stations and proposes an analytical method to theoretically derive optimal service frequencies for O-D demand on different levels. Considering different O-D demand characteristics and train service types, we introduce the concept of stop probability to present the mathematical formulation for stop planning with the objective of minimizing per capita travel time, which is solved by an iterative algorithm combined with local search. The resulting optimal stop probabilities can be used to calculate the required service frequency for each train type serving different demand categories. Numerical examples, based on three real-life high-speed railway lines, demonstrate the validity of the proposed method. The proposed approach provides a more flexible and practical way for stop planning that explicitly takes into account the importance of different stations and passenger travel characteristics.

Travel route options for passengers can provide data support for railway line planning, passenger flow organisation, and train operation establishment. A critical review of the literature indicates that previous studies mainly focused on choices offered by a single railway network path without much consideration of China’s normal-speed and high-speed integrated railway network and the effect of train timetable on passengers’ travel choice. In this study, a method based on generalised cost is proposed to discover the valid routes of passenger travel in the integrated network of China’s normal-speed and high-speed railways. After quantifying the effects of train fare, travel time, transfer, travel convenience, comfort, and other factors on the generalised expenses of passengers, this study presents a generalised cost determination method when individuals select an option from different seats of different trains of specific railway transport products. Theoretically, the valid routes considering the train schedule is defined, and a valid route search algorithm is designed using the deep traversal idea in a new valid route searching network. Considering the Lanzhou-Beijing passenger travel routes as an example, this study verifies the practicability of the generalised cost calculation method, as well as that of the valid routes search method.

A lot of time, effort and money has been and is being spent by operating companies and service companies in collecting data from many different sources, agglomerating that data, carrying out analytics on that data with the intention of turning that data into actionable insights that positively impact safety, environment, operations and profitability. This has been done with varying levels of success by approaching the problem from either an information technology (IT) or an operational technology (OT) point of view. What we are finding is that the best outcomes are achieved by having IT and OT domain experience with operational industry expertise within the same team. This has proven to be the case in other industries. There is also a need to understand edge and cloud actionable insights delivery in order to determine the optimal balance of edge and cloud delivery in a hybrid solution model. There is a continuum of analytics from high speed analytics at the edge, for such things as assisting regulatory control and real-time safety system diagnostics, to data lake analysis in the cloud, for planning, supply chain and business prioritisation and optimisation. Some analytics are best done at the edge; some are better done in the cloud. It’s a ‘horses for courses’ approach. The nature of the desired outcome, the required actionable insight and the nature of the data gathering are critical in determining the most effective approach. This paper discusses several examples of how this integrated IT OT approach took a desired outcome and turned it into an analytics platform that delivered significant value to the business. This paper cites examples of edge and cloud analytics that are enabled by integrating clever and sufficient industrial internet of things (IIoT) connectivity, which lead to actionable insights. These, in turn, ensured the correct action was effectively applied to the correct part(s) of the business operation, resulting in effective achievement of the desired outcome.
