Opportunistic Routing Sample Clauses

Opportunistic Routing. Routing is a task of the network layer of the TCP/IP. It is crucial to the performance of all wired and wireless networks. The task of the network layer (which is called the IP layer in the TCP/IP protocol) is to select the best route to forward the packets of data from one node to the next in the network. The dynamic nature of the wireless networks makes routing a difficult task. Traditional routing protocols in wireless networks pre-select the best xxxxx- xxxx node for routing before the packet transmission phase. This selected xxxxx- xxxx node is fixed during the transmission phase. This strategy may not be suitable for wireless networks where the state of the connection may dynamically change at a fast rate due to the dynamic behaviour of wireless channels, such as fading and blockage. Opportunistic Routing (OR) [21] is a strategy that benefits from the broadcast capability of wireless networks. The basic idea of OR is that the transmitted data packet is received by multiple neighbouring nodes. If at least one node successfully receives the packet, the forwarding task continues. A simple example that clarifies the benefit of OR is shown in Figure 1.6 [19]. Let us assume that the probability of successful relaying from the source to any neighbouring node is P (P = 20% in the figure), and the probability of successful relaying from any neighbouring node to the destination is 100%. In traditional routing, the probability of successful packet delivery from source to destination is P = 20%. However, with OR, this probability is 1 − (1 −P)5 = 0.672, which 100% is much better than conventional routing. In Chapter 4, this thesis utilises OR in the network layer, together with MPTCP in the transport layer, to mitigate the MPTCP delay. Reducing delay is an important requirement in the next generation of IoT networks for which conventional MPTCP with traditional routing protocols may not be adequate.

Should such circumstances arise, the Company shall first canvass for volunteers from those employees who are able to perform the work. Should there be more volunteers than are needed, the Company shall assign the work to the volunteer with the highest seniority. Should there be no volunteers; the Company shall assign the work to the lowest seniority employee able to perform the work. Temporary Assignments may be filled according to the process set out in this Article for a period of up to forty-five (45) days. Thereafter, the Temporary Assignment will be posted on a plant wide basis and made available to the most senior employee able to perform the work. In the event that the Temporary Assignment is going to exceed forty-five (45) days, and this fact is known at the time the vacancy first becomes available, the Company will post the Temporary Assignment in accordance with Section 2 at the time the Temporary Assignment first becomes available. If an Employee is temporarily required to fill a higher paid job, the Employee will receive the higher rate of pay for all hours spent performing the job, if he or she performs the job in excess of two (2) hours per shift. If an Employee is temporarily required to fill a lower paid job, his or her rate of pay shall not be reduced. In the event additional temporary assignments are required, the job will be filled in accordance with the process provided above. Subsequent to the completion of a Temporary Assignment, an Employee will be returned to his or her previous position, subject to seniority considerations.

  • Rewards PROGRAMS You may have selected a Rewards Program for your account or, if you selected a Popular / AAdvantage® card, then the terms of the AAdvantage® Program apply. REWARDS PROGRAM WHAT IT MEANS HOW IT AFFECTS YOU Return A rewards program that earns cash back per every purchase made with the Card. The reward program accumulates in cash 1% of all net Purchases made with your credit Card. Net Purchases are Purchases minus any credits or returns. In your billing statement, you will receive an estimate of the Reward accumulated. The redemption of money will be automatic and will occur once a year, in January. You will not be able to redeem your Reward before this date. The Bank will send you a check for the balance of your Reward to the address where you receive your billing statements. You will not accumulate Rewards for Balance Transfers, Convenience Checks, Cash Advances, payments thru TelePago® Popular or Internet Banking, the Purchase of casino chips or other methods of gambling, or any other transaction the Bank determines at its sole discretion constitutes or is equivalent to a Cash Advance. If you return merchandise, the Reward for that merchandise will be deducted. The percent of the deduction will be calculated based on the earning structure at the moment the merchandise was returned. If the amount of your Reward is less than ten (10) dollars at the automatic redemption period, you will not receive a check but it will accumulate to your account for the next redemption period. If your account has a derogative condition, the Bank will be able to retain your Reward until the condition ends or cancel the Reward completely, at the Bank's sole discretion. When calculating the Reward, the Bank will use the total dollar amount of each transaction eliminating the cents. The Bank's determination of the Reward is final. To receive the Reward, your account must be kept open until the date of the Reward payment.
