Local Search-Based Metaheuristic Methods for the Solid Waste Collection Problem by Haneen Algethami

“…The routing solver in the Google OR-tools solver is utilised with three well-known metaheuristic methods for neighbourhood exploration: a guided local search (GLS), a tabu search (TS), and simulated annealing (SA), with two initialisation strategies, Clarke and Wright’s algorithm and the nearest neighbour algorithm. Results showed that optimal solutions are found in faster computational times than using only an IP solver, especially for large instances. …”

Research on the cooperative offloading strategy of sensory data based on delay and energy constraints by Peiyan YUAN, Saike SHAO, Ran WEI, Junna ZHANG, Xiaoyan ZHAO

“…The edge offloading of the internet of things (IoT) sensing data was investigated.Multiple edge servers cooperatively offload all or part of the sensing data initially sent to the cloud center, which protects data privacy and improves user experience.In the process of cooperative offloading, the transmission of the sensing data and the information exchange among edge servers will consume system resources, resulting in the cost of cooperation.How to maximize the offloading ratio of the sensing data while maintaining a low collaboration cost is a challenging problem.A joint optimization problem of sensing data offload ratio and cooperative scale satisfying the constraints of network delay and system energy consumption was formulated.Subsequently, a distributed alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) via constraint projection and variable splitting was proposed to solve the problem.Finally, simulation experiments were carried out on MATLAB.Numerical results show that the proposed method improved the network delay and energy consumption compared to the fairness cooperation algorithm (FCA), the distributed optimization algorithm (DOA), and multi-subtasks-to-multi-servers offloading scheme (MTMS) algorithm.…”

Software and hardware co-design of lightweight authenticated ciphers ASCON for the internet of things by Jing WANG, Lesheng HE, Zhonghong LI, Luchi LI, Hang YANG

“…ASCON was the most promising algorithm to become an international standard in the 2021 NIST lightweight authenticated encryption call for proposals.The algorithm was designed to achieve the best performance in IoT resource-constrained environments, and there was no hardware IP core implementation based on this algorithm in the open literature.A software-hardware collaborative implementation method of ASCON was proposed, which improved the speed and reduced the memory footprint of ASCON in IoT security authentication applications through hardware means such as S-box optimization, prior calculation and advanced pipeline design.As a comparison, ASCON has been transplanted on the common IoT embedded processor platform.The results showed that the described method was more than 7.9 times faster, while the memory footprint was reduced by at least 90%.The schemes can be used for the design and implementation of IoT security application-specific integrated circuits or SoCs.…”

Online Autonomous Motion Control of Communication-Relay UAV with Channel Prediction in Dynamic Urban Environments by Cancan Tao, Bowen Liu

“…The method mainly consists of two parts: wireless channel parameter estimation and optimal relay position search. Considering that in practical applications, the radio frequency (RF) channel parameters in complex urban environments are difficult to obtain in advance and are constantly changing, an estimation algorithm based on Gaussian process learning is proposed for online evaluation of the wireless channel parameters near the current position of the UAV; for the optimal relay position search problem, in order to improve the real-time performance of the method, a line search algorithm and a general gradient-based algorithm are proposed, which are used for point-to-point communication and multi-node communication scenarios, respectively, reducing the two-dimensional search to a one-dimensional search, and the stability proof and convergence conditions of the algorithm are given. …”
