Task scheduling algorithm for distributed environment based on signal-driven by Yu XIN, Jing YANG, Zhi-qiang XIE

“…In order to optimize the performance of user services in IaaS,the task scheduling algorithm for IaaS based on signal-driven is proposed,by which CS(control subsystem) and NS(inquiry nodes subsystem) based on the structural characteristics of the IaaS is established,and the DAG scheduling model based on the structural characteristics of the inquiry task is created.Then the conversion mechanism for the task partitions is created,constructing the signal communication mechanism for CS and NS,changing the status of the task partitions by signal-driven between the CS and NS,completing the task partitions allocation by POSS (parallel optimization selective strategy) in the scheduling time.This algorithm with low complexity is compatible with the distributed architecture of IaaS,because of utilizing dual system control mode.The effectiveness and practicality of this algorithm is verified by experiment.…”

Chain structure Bluetooth scatternet topology formation algorithm and performance simulations by YANG Fan, WANG Ke, QIAN Zhi-hong

“…A novel chain structure Bluetooth scatternet algorithm for topology formation was presented:all Bluetooth nodes turn into INQUIRY or INQUIRY SCAN states with identical probability,0.5,then set point-to-point connections up simultaneously.As a result,as large as possible numbers of temporary piconets were made up,and furthermore,some larger piconets and groups composed of several piconets were made up through varieties of merging and recomposing repeatedly.Finally,a chain structure scatternet bearing only one group were formed by operating the algorithm after several times.Simulations and performance analysis indicate that the scatternet formed by this algorithm has excellent characteristics:comparably less number of piconets,less average number of roles every node and less number of maximum degree of nodes,shorter networking establishment time,easier to maintain topology dynamically and dispensable for all nodes to be in communication range,etc.The algorithm can be used for Bluetooth scatternet topology formation.…”
