A Model of Video Traffic Transmission in IP Networks

Telecommunications and network technology is now the driving force that ensures continued progress of world civilization. Design of new and expansion of existing network infrastructures requires improving the quality of service(QoS). Modeling probabilistic and time characteristics of telecommunication systems is an integral part of modern algorithms of administration of quality of service. At present, for the assessment of quality parameters except simulation models analytical models in the form of systems and queuing networks are widely used. Because of the limited mathematical tools of models of these classes the corresponding parameter estimation of parameters of quality of service are inadequate by definition. Especially concerning the models of telecommunication systems with packet transmission of multimedia real-time traffic.

A Wireless Mesh Network NS-3 Simulation Model: Implementation and Performance Comparison With a Real Test-Bed

Wireless mesh networks present an attractive communication solution for various research and industrial projects. However, in many cases, the appropriate preliminary calculations which allow predicting the network behavior have to be made before the actual deployment. For such purposes, network simulation environments emulating the real network operation are often used. Within this paper, a behavior comparison of real wireless mesh network (based on 802.11s amendment) and the simulated one has been performed. The main objective of this work is to measure performance parameters of a real 802.11s wireless mesh network (average UDP throughput and average one-way delay) and compare the derived results with characteristics of a simulated wireless mesh network created with the NS-3 network simulation tool. Then, the results from both networks are compared and the corresponding conclusion is made. The corresponding results were derived from simulation model and real-worldtest-bed, showing that the behavior of both networks is similar. It confirms that the NS-3 simulation model is accurate and can be used in further research studies.

Development of an in vitro model for studying aneurysms

The aims of this project was to develop an arterial aneurysm using either enzymatic or laser degradation of the arterial wall without affecting the viability of the tissue and to cultivate the arteries under pulsatile flow conditions in a vascular bioreactor with a view to investigate the progress of the disease. Characteristics of aneurysms are the degradation of smooth muscle cells, collagen and elastin. Detached smooth muscle cells and degradation of the collagen matrix and elastin fibres were observed in arteries degraded with enzymes elastase and collagenase. Only remnants of the arterial wall were detected after cultivation. This might be a suitable model for late stage aneurysms. Arteries treated with the laser system showed no charring or heat damage of the not dissected area. Collagen matrix, smooth muscle cells and elastin fibres were intact. A clear defined cut was made in a depth of 200 μm and tissue was removed. Following cultivation of these arteries a dilation of the laser-eroded area was observed. This model can mimic atherosclerotic aneurysms, when plaques weaken the tunica media of the blood vessel wall and rupture. Limitations of this study were contamination of the bioreactor system and a low number of cultivations. The aim to generate a living arterial aneurysm in vitro was not achieved. Tissue viability decreased to the level of negative controls after cultivation.

Double-Exponential Model of a Photovoltaic Cell with Temperature Dependence

The purpose of the research is the creation of mathematical models in MATLAB based on the double exponential model of the photovoltaic cell. The developed model allows for different physical and environmental parameters. An equivalent circuit of the model includes a photocurrent source, two diodes, and a series and parallel resistance. The paper presents the simulation results for each parameter. The simulation data are displayed graphically and numerical results are saved in a file.
