Due to the merit without requiring charging cable, wireless power transfer technologies have drawn rising attention as a new method to replenish energy to Wireless Rechargeable Sensor Networks (WRSNs). In this paper, we study mobile charger scheduling problem for multi-node recharging with deadline-series. Our target is to maximize the overall effective charging utility, and minimize the traveling time as well. Instead of charging only once over a scheduling cycle, we incorporate the multiple charging strategy for multi-node charging with deadline constraint, where charging spots and tour are jointly optimized. Specifically, we formulate the effective charging utility maximization problem as to maximize a monotone submodular function subject to a partition matroid constraint, and propose a simple but effective 1/2 -approximation greedy algorithm. After that, we present the grid-based skip-substitute operation further to save the traveling time, which can increase the charging utility. Finally, we conduct the evaluation for the performance of our scheduling scheme. Comparing to the Early Deadline First scheme, the simulation and field experiment results show that our algorithm outperform EDF by 37.5% and 37.9%, respectively.

In the paradigm of mobile Ad hoc networks (MANET), forwarding packets originating from other nodes requires cooperation among nodes. However, as each node may not want to waste its energy, cooperative behavior can not be guaranteed. Therefore, it is necessary to implement some mechanism to avoid selfish behavior and to promote cooperation. In this paper, we propose a simple quid pro quo based reputation system, i.e., nodes that forward gain reputation, but lose more reputation if they do not forward packets from cooperative users (determined based on reputation), and lose less reputation when they chose to not forward packets from non-cooperative users. Under this framework, we model the behavior of users as an evolutionary game and provide conditions that result in cooperative behavior by studying the evolutionary stable states of the proposed game. Numerical analysis is provided to study the resulting equilibria and to illustrate how the proposed model performs compared to traditional models.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology is a promising solution for providing high-quality mobile services to ground users, where a UAV with limited service coverage travels among multiple geographical user locations (e.g., hotspots) for servicing t heir demands locally. How to dynamically determine a UAV swarms cooperative path planning to best meet many users spatio-temporally distributed demands is an important question but is unaddressed in the literature. To our best knowledge, this paper is the first to design and analyze cooperative path planning algorithms of a large UAV swarm for optimally servicing many spatial locations, where ground users demands are released dynamically in the long time horizon. Regarding a single UAVs path planning design, we manage to substantially simplify the traditional dynamic program and propose an optimal algorithm of low computation complexity, which is only polynomial with respect to both the numbers of spatial locations and user demands. After coordinating a large number $K$ of UAVs, this simplified dynamic optimization problem becomes intractable and we alternatively present a fast iterative cooperation algorithm with provable approximation ratio $1-(1-frac{1}{K})^{K}$ in the worst case, which is proved to obviously outperform the traditional approach of partitioning UAVs to serve different location clusters separately. To relax UAVs battery capacity limit for sustainable service provisioning, we further allow UAVs to travel to charging stations in the mean time and thus jointly design UAVs path planning over users locations and charging stations. Despite of the problem difficulty, for the optimal solution, we successfully transform the problem to an integer linear program by creating novel directed acyclic graph of the UAV-state transition diagram, and propose an iterative algorithm with constant approximation ratio.

Provided with mobile edge computing (MEC) services, wireless devices (WDs) no longer have to experience long latency in running their desired programs locally, but can pay to offload computation tasks to the edge server. Given its limited storage spa ce, it is important for the edge server at the base station (BS) to determine which service programs to cache by meeting and guiding WDs offloading decisions. In this paper, we propose an MEC service pricing scheme to coordinate with the service caching decisions and control WDs task offloading behavior. We propose a two-stage dynamic game of incomplete information to model and analyze the two-stage interaction between the BS and multiple associated WDs. Specifically, in Stage I, the BS determines the MEC service caching and announces the service program prices to the WDs, with the objective to maximize its expected profit under both storage and computation resource constraints. In Stage II, given the prices of different service programs, each WD selfishly decides its offloading decision to minimize individual service delay and cost, without knowing the other WDs desired program types or local execution delays. Despite the lack of WDs information and the coupling of all the WDs offloading decisions, we derive the optimal threshold-based offloading policy that can be easily adopted by the WDs in Stage II at the Bayesian equilibrium. Then, by predicting the WDs offloading equilibrium, we jointly optimize the BS pricing and service caching in Stage I via a low-complexity algorithm. In particular, we study both the uniform and differentiated pricing schemes. For differentiated pricing, we prove that the same price should be charged to the cached programs of the same workload.

In mobile crowd sensing networks data forwarding through opportunistic contacts between participants. Data is replicated to encountered participants. For optimizing data delivery ratio and reducing redundant data a lot of data forwarding schemes, whi ch selectively replicate data to encountered participants through nodes data forwarding metric are proposed. However most of them neglect a kind of redundant data whose Time-To-Live is expired. For reducing this kind of redundant data we proposed a new method to evaluate nodes data forwarding metric, which is used to measure the nodes probability of forwarding data to destination within datas constraint time. The method is divided into two parts. The first is evaluating nodes whether have possibility to contact destination within time constraint based on transient cluster. We propose a method to detect nodes transient cluster, which is based on nodes contact rate. Only node, which has possibility to contact destination, has chances to the second step. It effectively reduces the computational complexity. The second is calculating data forwarding probability of node to destination according to individual ICT (inter contact time) distribution. Evaluation results show that our proposed transient cluster detection method is more simple and quick. And from two aspects of data delivery ratio and network overhead our approach outperforms other existing data forwarding approach.
The emergence of OpenFlow and Software Defined Networks brings new perspectives into how we design the next generation networks, where the number of base stations/access points as well as the devices per subscriber will be dramatically higher. In suc h dense environments, devices can communicate with each other directly and can attach to multiple base stations (or access points) for simultaneous data communication over multiple paths. This paper explores how networks can maximally enable this multi-path diversity through network programmability. In particular, we propose programmable flow clustering and set policies for inter-group as well as intra-group wireless scheduling. Further, we propose programmable demultiplexing of a single network flow onto multiple paths before the congestion areas and multiplexing them together post congestion areas. We show the benefits of such programmability first for legacy applications that cannot take advantage of multi-homing without such programmability. We then evaluate the benefits for smart applications that take advantage of multi-homing by either opening multiple TCP connections over multiple paths or utilizing a transport protocol such as MP-TCP designed for supporting such environments. More specifically, we built an emulation environment over Mininet for our experiments. Our evaluations using synthetic and trace driven channel models indicate that the proposed programmability in wireless scheduling and flow splitting can increase the throughput substantially for both the legacy applications and the current state of the art.
