In this paper, we propose a novel context-aware routing (CAR) approach that uses the cloud as an extra level of data-request processing to improve the network performance in terms of data delivery. Data delivery in the Internet of Things depends heavily on numerous factors, such as the amount of data, end-to-end in-network delay, and setup time. The CAR approach is significantly improving the current request-response model, especially while the exchanged in-network data amount increases and data are sent from source to destination in a peer-to-peer fashion. What we are trying to show in this paper, in particular, is the benefits of having a central context-aware server (in the cloud) in improving the end-user experience. Hence, the proposed CAR approach is a typical candidate for data-intensive cloud-based applications. It considers source and destination requirements in terms of data size, delay, link capacity, and available applications on the operating devices as well. Extensive simulations are performed, and achieved results show the efficiency of our approach against other competitive approaches in terms of in-network delay and packet delivery ratio.

Hybrid Approach for Mobile Couriers Election in Smart-cities
Al-Turjman, Fadi (2016-11-10)
In this paper we propose a hybrid heuristic approach for public data delivery under ultra-large-scale smart-city settings. In this approach, public transportation vehicles are going into election process to be utilized as Mobile Couriers (MCs) that read public Access Points (APs) data loads and relay it back to a central processing base-station. We also introduce a cost-based fitness function for the MCs election in the smart-city project which forms a real implementation for the Internet of Things (IoT) pa...
QUERY AGE OF INFORMATION IN COMMUNICATION NETWORKS
Ildız, Muhammed Emrullah; Uysal, Elif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2002-8-22)
We study a pull-based status update communication model where a source node submits update packets to a channel with random transmission delay, at times requested by a remote destination node. The objective is to minimize the average query-age-of-information (QAoI), defined as the age of information (AoI) measured at query instants that occur at the destination side according to a stochastic arrival process. In reference to a push-based problem formulation defined in the literature where the source decides ...
Evaluation of Terahertz Channel in Data Centers
MOLLAHASANİ, Shahram; Onur, Ertan (2016-04-29)
Designing data center network topologies with the objective of minimizing cost, increasing bisection bandwidth and decreasing latency is a difficult problem. The solutions in the literature mainly concentrate on wired networks and minimizing wiring costs thereof. Only a few proposals address the benefit of employing wireless communications in data centers due to spectrum and bandwidth limitations of current wireless communication technologies. By using terahertz communication in a data center as a complemen...
Optimizing age of information on real-life TCP/IP connections through reinforcement learning
Sert, Egemen; Sonmez, Canberk; Baghaee, Sajjad; Uysal, Elif (2018-07-05)
Age of Information (AoI) has emerged as a performance metric capturing the freshness of data for status-update based applications ( e.g. , remote monitoring) as a more suitable alternative to classical network performance indicators such as throughput or delay. Optimizing AoI often requires distinctly novel and sometimes counter-intuitive networking policies that adapt the rate of update transmissions to the randomness in network resources. However, almost all previous work on AoI to data has been theoretic...
Dependability design for distributed real-time systems with broadcast communication /
Kartal, Yusuf Bora; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
The operation of distributed systems relies on the timely exchange of message data via dependable communication networks. Previous works suggest hardware redundancy for potential faults in the underlying network infrastructure to achieve dependability. However, software faults and faults that cannot be resolved on the hardware level are not considered in the existing literature. This work proposes a new method for software fault-tolerant communication in distributed real-time systems with communication netw...
