3. Towards a Methodology for the Development of Routing Algorithms in Opportunistic Networks

Author

Freire, Diego, Robles, Sergi, and Borrego, Carlos

Subjects
Computer Science - Networking and Internet Architecture
Abstract

This paper introduces a methodology for the development of routing algorithms that takes into consideration opportunistic networking. The proposal focus on the rationale behind the methodology, and highlights its most important stages and components. It also discusses the importance of two core elements in the process of protocol designing: the scenario selection, based on essential characteristics, and the choice of standard evaluation metrics. As of now, there has been no common methodology for developing new routing algorithms, and this has led to proposals difficult to compare, to evaluate, and lacking a rigorous objectivity ensuring fairness. Thus, there is the urgent need to propose, agree, and use a common methodology for the development of routing algorithms.

4. A Software-Defined Networking approach for congestion control in Opportunistic Networking

Author

Subjects

Abstract

The short-term adoption of opportunistic networks (OppNet) depends on improving the current performance of this type of network. Software-Defined Networks (SDN) architecture is used by Internet applications with high resource demand. SDN technology improves network performance by programmatically managing the network configuration by using a control layer. In this paper, we propose that OppNet nodes use a control layer to get an overview of the whole network and use this knowledge to apply policies to get a better performance of the network. As a use case for our experimentation, we have focused on improving congestion control in OppNet with a control layer that dynamically regulates the replication degree used by forwarding algorithms. We have compared the performance of our proposal with two different configurations of the OppNet, over two community scenarios based on real mobility traces. The results of the test prove that our SDN-like approach overruns the other two approaches in terms of delivery ratio and latency time performance., Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, conference

5. Room Escape at Class: Escape Games Activities to Facilitate the Motivation and Learning in Computer Science

Author

Borrego, Carlos, Fernández, Cristina, Blanes, Ian, and Robles, Sergi

Abstract

Real-life room-escape games are ludic activities in which participants enter a room in order to get out of it only after solving some riddles. In this paper, we explain a Room Escape teaching experience developed in the Engineering School at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. The goal of this activity is to increase student's motivation and to improve their learning on two courses of the second year in the "Computer Engineering degree: Computer Networks and Information and Security".

Abstract

The frequency of extreme wildfire events (EWEs) is expected to increase due to climate change, leading to higher levels of atmospheric pollutants being released into the air, which could cause significant short-term impacts on human health (both for the population and firefighters) and on visibility. This study aims to gain a better understanding of the effects of EWEs' smoke on air quality, its short-term impacts on human health, and how it reduces visibility by applying a modelling system to the Portuguese EWEs of October 2017. The Weather Research and Forecasting Model was combined with a semi-empirical fire spread algorithm (WRF-SFIRE) to simulate particulate matter smoke dispersion and assess its impacts based on up-to-date numerical approaches. Hourly simulated particulate matter values were compared to hourly monitored values, and the WRF-SFIRE system demonstrated accuracy consistent with previous studies, with a correlation coefficient ranging from 0.30 to 0.76 and an RMSE varying between 215 µg/m3 and 418 µg/m3. The estimated daily particle concentration levels exceeded the European air quality limit value, indicating a potential strong impact on human health. Health indicators related to exposure to particles were estimated, and their spatial distribution showed that the highest number of hospital admissions (>300) during the EWE, which occurred downwind of the fire perimeters, were due to the combined effect of high smoke pollution levels and population density. Visibility reached its worst level at night, when dispersion conditions were poorest, with the entire central and northern regions registering poor visibility levels (with a visual range of less than 2 km). This study emphasises the use of numerical models to predict, with high spatial and temporal resolutions, the population that may be exposed to dangerous levels of air pollution caused by ongoing wildfires. It offers valuable information to the public, civil protection agencies, and health organisations to assist in lessening the impact of wildfires on society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Des dels primers assentaments humans, les tècniques de construcció han evolucionat en funció dels materials disponibles, les necessitats de la societat i les influències culturals. A mesura que han avançat les tecnologies, la construcció ha seguit el seu camí, perseguint al seu temps reduir costos, terminis de construcció i, per tant, augmentar l'eficiència aportant noves tecnologies i canviant la metodologia de producció. Buscant aquest avanç, van arribar els sistemes de construcció prefabricada, que amb un aire de progrés i innovació, ofereixen nombroses possibilitats i avantatges en termes de velocitat, costos i sostenibilitat entre altres, i com a resultat s'ha convertit en una opció cada cop més popular.

Abstract

ABSTRACTAir quality (AQ) is gaining considerable visibility within the tourism sector. However, despite several studies analysing the impact of tourism activities on the AQ of destinations, little is known about the inverse relation. This paper analyses the role of AQ on travel planning and the factors influencing it, specifically the influence of environmentally friendly daily behaviours and concerns with AQ impacts on visitor health. To accomplish this, a questionnaire survey (N = 834) was carried out to visitors. Two Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and two multivariate regression models were used to identify the factors influencing the role of AQ in travel planning. Results reveal that despite AQ not having a substantial role in travel planning of tourism activities, the environmentally friendly daily behaviours of visitors have a positive influence on the role of AQ in travel planning. The paper ends with some theoretical and practical implications.
