Real-Time Communications in Token Ring Networks U - b-Ît Real-Time Communications in Token Ring Networks by Li-Jun Yao A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of PhilosoPhY TN Department of ComPuter Science The [Jniaersi,tY of Adelaide Jairuary L994 \1q Au,o, ltJ \' Abstract as it imposes a Real-time communications differ from traditional data communications It is weil known that time constraint, such as d,ead,line, on each message transmission' for task scheduling in a the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling policy is optimal policy in a distributed centralized real-time system. However, implementing the EDF real-time environment real-time system is d.ifferent from its counterpart in a centralized work deals with the due to its non-negligible scheduling overhead involved. This distributed system implementation of the EDF policy in the context of a speciflc - a token ring a token ring local area network. Its main objectives are (i) to propose real-time message protocol which implements the exact network-wide trDF policy for level of transmission, and. (ii) to address the fundamental issue of the appropriate environment' implementing an optimal scheduling poiicy in a distributed real-time In brief, the work is concerned with the design and performance evaluation of implement variations three token ring protocols for real-time communications' which is an existing token of the EDF. transmission policy with different overheads. The flrst overhead' passingprotocol which does not adhere to the EDF poiicy but has a minimal the EDF policy The second is a modified priori,ty-ilriuen protocol which approximates for with a moderate overhead. The third is the window protocol which is proposed ll the exact EDF transmission the token ring networks for the first time' It implements high' policy, but its contention overhead may be potentially and compared' It The worst case performance of the three protocois is analyzed protocoi is determined is found that the pert'ormance of a distributed communication overhead not oniy by the transmission policy employed, but also by the contention that no protocol can incurred when implementing such a policy' It is also shown langes considered and that always outperform the others for the entire parameter performance is the best' each protocol has its own applicable region where its protocols is evaluated Furthermore, the average case performance of the three ring network through simulation. It is found that under the current token best performance as a result technology, the proposed window protocol achieves the when the ring gets of implementing the EDF policy. However, it is also shown that is reduced' faster, the difierence in the performance of the three protocols algorithm, Therefore, it is concluded that in designing a distributed scheduling in achieving an optimai such as a communication protocol, one should seek a balance scheduling policy and minimizing the scheduling overhead.

Email: [email protected] Received: 15 January 2021; Accepted: 17 February 2021 Abstract: Wireless sensor network (WSN) is considered as the fastest growing technology pattern in recent years because of its applicability in var- ied domains. Many sensor nodes with different sensing functionalities are deployed in the monitoring area to collect suitable data and transmit it to the gateway. Ensuring communications in heterogeneous WSNs, is a critical issue that needs to be studied. In this research paper, we study the system performance of a heterogeneous WSN using LoRa–Zigbee hybrid communi- cation. Specifically, two Zigbee sensor clusters and two LoRa sensor clusters are used and combined with two Zigbee-to-LoRa converters to communicate in a network managed by a LoRa gateway. The overall system integrates many different sensors in terms of types, communication protocols, and accuracy, which can be used in many applications in realistic environments such as on land, under water, or in the air. In addition to this, a synchronous man- agement software on ThingSpeak Web server and Blynk app is designed.

In a networked scenario organisations often need several people (may be at different locations) to input and process data simultaneously. In order to achieve this, a computer-networking model in which a number of separate but interconnected computers do the job has replaced the earlier standalone-computing model. By linking individual computers over 4 7 Network Fundamentals a network their productivity has been increased enormously. A most distinguishing characteristic of a general computer network is that data can enter or leave at any point and can be processed at any workstation.

Ahuja, Ph.D. Fidelity National Financial Distinguished Professor of CIS School of Computing, UNF IEEE 802.5 (Token Ring): Ring Topology Shared ring medium: all nodes see all frames Round Robin MAC Protocol: determines which station can transmit A special 3-byte pattern, the token, circulates around the ring perpetually and represents the "right to transmit" This establishes round-robin media access Data flow is unidirectional All data flows in a particular direction around the ring; nodes receive frames from their upstream neighbor and forward them to their downstream neighbor Data rate: 4 or 16 Mbps R R R R IEEE 802.5 (Token Ring) Operation The token bit sequence circulates around the ring. Each station forwards the token if it does not have a frame to transmit. A station with data to send seizes the token (repeater now in transmit state) and begins sending it’s frame. It can transmit for length of time called the Token Hold Time (THT) = 10 mseconds. Each station forwards the frame. The destination station notices its address and saves a copy of the frame as it also forwards the frame. When the sender sees its frame return, it drains it from the ring and reinserts a token. When the last bit of the returning frame has been drained, the repeater switches immediately to the listen state.
