Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a cluster of wireless mobile gadgets that creates a temporary network without seeking support from any infrastructure or central management. Energy consumption should be considered as one of the foremost vital limitations in MANETs because the mobile nodes do not possess a constant power supply and its shortage will minimize the network's lifetime. MANETs get energy from the batteries which get exhausted very quickly because of issues like node mobility, computation power, frequent data retransmissions needed in wireless communication, etc. Secondly, there is a data packet loss caused by different reasons such as traffic congestion or random loss as a result of nodes mobility or noise. This data loss, in turn, would delay packets delivery degrading data transmission in real-time applications. This paper provides management for this combination of major problems in MANETs. We present a new fitness function (FFn) used in the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to obtain the optimized route from those routes offered by the Ad hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV) routing protocol. Accordingly, we propose a routing protocol titled as AOMDV with FFn (AOMDV-FFn). We also integrate the AOMDV mechanism with the genetic algorithm (AOMDV-GA). These protocols provide an optimization process to select the efficient routes that have the highest fitness values implementing the shortest route, maximum residual energy, and less data traffic even if a random loss of data packets happens. In this regard, we introduce a mechanism where the TCP Congestion Control Enhancement for Random Loss (TCP CERL) can be utilized in the FFn to optimize the efficient route. The performance of the proposed mechanisms is compared with other preferred protocols proposed in this area.

“…Wu et al [27] presented an energy-efficient video flow rate allocation method in order to improve MPTCP energy efficiency while guaranteeing userperceived quality for video streaming services. Wang et al [28] designed an energy efficient congestion control algorithm for MPTCP, by jointly considering each path's RTT, loss rate, and energy efficiency. Kaup et al [29] analyzed the battery power consumption in-depth when running MPTCP onto a power-constrained mobile phone, and then developed an energy consumption measuring and modeling study model for MPTCP.…”

Can Multipath TCP be Robust to Cyber Attacks With Incomplete Information?

Promoted by the advancements in the various wireless access technologies, modern mobile devices equipped with multiple network interfaces are rapidly becoming the norm, and this provides a driving force for the large-scale deployment of the Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) in the current and future Internet. However, the simultaneous use of multiple network paths for concurrent multipath data transmission can make MPTCP have a larger attack surface than the traditional single-path transport protocols, and this may be likely to pose a risk of MPTCP being much more susceptible to cyber attacks. In this paper, we present a measurement method to investigate the vulnerability and robustness of MPTCP under cyber attacks with incomplete network information, by considering the fact that most cyber attacks normally lack of real-time information with respect to various MPTCP attributes. We mathematically characterize cyber attacks with incomplete network information from the viewpoints of both the cyber attacker and the MPTCP communication system, and then we introduce a mixed attack strategy, by jointly considering the features of both the random attacks and the selective attacks, to evaluate the robustness of MPTCP.

“…In wired networks, Multipath TCP protocols, e.g., pTCP [24], mTCP [25], MPTCP [26], and energy efficient congestion control for Multipath TCP [27], are a set of extensions of regular TCP that allow one TCP connection to be spread across multiple paths between each pair of source and destination. By striping one flow's packets across multiple paths, they can enhance user experience through improved resilience to network failure and higher throughput.…”

Mobile cloud computing (MCC) has gained much attention from both academia and industry in recent years. It can support new types of services, such as m-commerce, m-learning, and mobile healthcare, and enrich mobile users' experience and satisfaction by taking full advantage of cloud computing. In MCC architectures multipath communications can be achieved with multihomed mobile devices, so as to utilize multiple paths for data transmission in parallel. They can achieve better utilization of bandwidth resource, split traffic for load balancing, and enhance reliability, fault tolerance, and robustness for applications. However, little attention has been paid to model the reliability of multipath communications in case of path failure. In this paper we investigate the reliability of concurrent multipath communications in MCC architectures and propose two reliability models when paths are failure. One is for static path failure where the failed paths cannot recover for communication in some delay time. The other is for dynamic path failure where the failed paths can recover in some delay time. Finally, numerical results are given to illustrate the reliability of multipath communications.
