Packet routing in networks requires knowledge about available paths, which can be either acquired dynamically while the traffic is being forwarded, or statically (in advance) based on prior information of a network's topology. This paper describes an experimental investigation of path discovery using genetic algorithms (GAs). We start with the quality-of-service (QoS)-driven routing protocol called ‘cognitive packet network’ (CPN), which uses smart packets (SPs) to dynamically select routes in a distributed autonomic manner based on a user's QoS requirements. We extend it by introducing a GA at the source routers, which modifies and filters the paths discovered by the CPN. The GA can combine the paths that were previously discovered to create new untested but valid source-to-destination paths, which are then selected on the basis of their ‘fitness.’ We present an implementation of this approach, where the GA runs in background mode so as not to overload the ingress routers. Measurements conducted on a network test bed indicate that when the background-traffic load of the network is light to medium, the GA can result in improved QoS. When the background-traffic load is high, it appears that the use of the GA may be detrimental to the QoS experienced by users as compared to CPN routing because the GA uses less timely state information in its decision making.

This paper proposes a new energy efficient algorithm to find and maintain routes in mobile ad hoc networks. The proposal borrows the notion of learning from a previous research on cognitive packet networks (CPN) to create a robust routing protocol. Our idea uses smart packets that exploit the use of unicasts and broadcasts to search for routes. Because unicasts impose lower overall overhead, their use is preferred. Smart packets learn how to make good unicast routing decisions by employing a combined goal function which considers both the energy stored in the nodes and path delay. The end result is a dynamic discovery of paths that offer an equilibrium between low-delay routes and an efficient use of network resources that extends the working lifetime of the network.

We examine a generalisation of the M/G/1 queue. The arrival and service processes are governed by a Markov chain which determines the rate of arrival and the service time distribution from a finite set. This Markov chain is assumed to vary "slowly", so that we are able to derive analytical results for the stationary distribution of the queue length using an approach based on decomposability. The practical interest of this model stems from the numerous applications where the parameters of queueing systems are time varying, such as inventory models, telephone systems, time-sharing systems, computer networks with bursty traffic, etc. We also show how this approach can be extended to arbitrary networks of queues and in particular to those with product form solution.

We survey results concerning a new stochastic network we have developed [1–7], which was initially motivated by neural network modelling [1], or - as we called it - by queueing networks with positive and negative customers [2, 3]. Indeed, it is well known that signals in neural networks are formed by impulses or action potentials, traveling much like customers in a queueing network. We call this model a G-network because it serves as a unifying basis for diverse areas of stochastic modelling in queueing networks, computer networks, computer system performance and neural networks. In its simplest version, ‘negative’ and ‘positive’ signals or customers circulate among a finite set of units, modelling inhibitory and excitatory signals of a neural network, or ‘negative and positive customers’ of a queueing network. Signals can arrive either from other units or from the outside world. Positive signals are accumulated at the input of each unit, and constitute its signal potential. The state of each unit or neuron is its signal potential (which is equivalent to the queue length), while the network state is the vector of signal potentials at each neuron. If its potential is positive, a unit or neuron fires, and sends out signals to the other neurons or to the outside world. As it does so, its signal potential is depleted. In the Markovian case, this model has product form, i.e. the steady-state probability distribution of its potential vector is the product of the marginal probabilities of the potential at each neuron. The signal flow equations of the network, which describe the rate at which positive or negative signals arrive to each neuron, are non-linear. We discuss the relationship between this model and the usual connectionist (formal) model of neural networks, and present applications to combinatorial optimization and to image texture processing. Extensions of the model to the case of ‘multiple signal classes’, and to ‘networks with triggered customer motion’ are presented. We also examine the general stability conditions which guarantee that the network has a well-defined steady-state behaviour. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This guest editorial introduces a special issue of the periodical "IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering" which focuses on neural network software and systems. It outlines the history of artificial neural networks and their role in the origin of the theory of computing. The special issue addresses aspects of neural computation that are closely related to software engineering. The main problem at hand is the development of paradigms to deal effectively with the issues related to neural network programming. The papers in the issue highlight increasingly important issues of artificial neural network programming tools and systems, and suggest applications of neural networks to the diverse and difficult problems of software engineering.
