Connectivity Restoration in Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks using Distributed Learning Automata
Mohsen Jahanshahi, Mohammadreza Maddah · International journal of industrial mathematics. · 2018
Connectivity in WSNs is vital to preserve the network performance. Reported algorithms try to restore connectivity by appropriately selecting the failure handler. This paper, initially presents a hybrid algorithm based on distributed learning automata named DLA-BuS for critical node backup selection. Then, we present DLA-MRF to repair stimulant failure of two adjacent actors. Simulations using Castalia demonstrate that proposed algorithms outperform representative methods in terms of some well-known performance parameters.
