Estimation of the Network Reliability for a Stochastic Cold Chain Network with Multi-State Travel Time

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
A stochastic cold chain (SCC) is a common supply chain in real life that emphasizes the need for commodities to arrive fresh within time constraints. In previous research on supply chains, the time factor was regarded as a fixed number.

Reliability in Computer Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We use a mathematical model of an open queueing network in heavy traffic. The probability limit theorem for the virtual waiting time of a customer in heavy traffic in open queueing networks has been presented. Finally, we present an application of the theorem - a reliability model from computer network practice.

Using a Node–Child Matrix to Address the Quickest Path Problem in Multistate Flow Networks under Transmission Cost Constraints

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The quickest path problem in multistate flow networks, which is also known as the quickest path reliability problem (QPRP), aims at calculating the probability of successfully sending a minimum of d flow units/data/commodity from a source node to a ...

Networks of reliable reputations and cooperation: a review [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B, 2021
Abstract Reputation has been shown to provide an informal solution to the problem of cooperation in human societies. After reviewing models that connect reputations and cooperation, we address how reputation results from information exchange embedded in a social network that changes endogenously itself.

Energy-Effective Cooperative and Reliable Delivery Routing Protocols for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Underwater deployed sensors nodes are energy-constrained. Therefore, energy efficiency becomes crucial in underwater wireless sensor networks (U-WSNs). The adverse channel corrupts the packets and challenges their reliability. To handle these challenges,

Reliability of Wireless Sensor Networks [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2014
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of hundreds or thousands of sensor nodes with limited processing, storage, and battery capabilities. There are several strategies to reduce the power consumption of WSN nodes (by increasing the network lifetime) and increase the reliability of the network (by improving the WSN Quality of Service).
