  ABSTRACT: Body sensor network (BSN) is a wireless network of implantable and/or wearable smart sensors. They can be deployed in medical applications, such as patients monitoring inside or outside hospital environment, as well as in high performance professional sports and other non human related applications. The size of a sensor node and its power consumption are major challenges in the design of implantable BSNs. The focus of this paper is to propose the definition of a new light weight communications protocol for the BSNs applications using very small sensor nodes supporting ultra low energy consumption.

• Conference Proceeding: A New 10 Gbps Traffic Management algorithm for High-speed Networks

  ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new traffic management algorithm able to meet the requirements of high speed networks where the speed of ingress traffic can exceeds 10 Gbps. Our newly algorithm, called HRED (high speed RED) is based on the well known algorithm RED (random early detection) algorithm with several enhancements. Unlike other existing enhancements for RED which are found in the literature, our proposed changes leads to an algorithm which outperforms the existing ones in terms of packet drops. The authors present in this paper a series of simulation results demonstrating this fact. Also, the authors developed an efficient heuristic used in the hardware implementation of the algorithm and proved that this heuristic diminishes the response time of the algorithm. The reason for which we claim it's suitability for high speed networks.

  Conference Proceeding: An FPGA implementation of a modified version of RED algorithm

  F. Fereydouni-Forouzandeh, Otmane Ait Mohamed
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: Receiving large number of data packets at different baud rates and different sizes at gateways in very high-speed network routers may lead to a congestion problem and force them to drop some packets. Several algorithms have been developed to control this problem. A random early detection (RED) algorithm is commonly used. In this work, we present an FPGA implementation of a modified version of RED able to run as fast as 10 Gbps. Furthermore, we discuss three enhancements of the RED algorithm leading a better performance suitable for FPGA implementation.
