 Abstract

In Wireless Networks, MANETs can dynamically create a network without relying on a central hub or infrastructure. These features will be helpful for scenarios such as disaster relief or military operations. However, the absence of a central authority presents challenges concerning security and routing, affecting the network's stability and capabilities. A proposed scheme incorporates the consideration of the power factor when selecting routes to handle the challenges efficiently. These are integrated with the widely used AODV routing protocol and simulated using the NS-2 simulator. We evaluate the simulated results to determine the impact of the proposed scheme on the network. The simulation outcomes demonstrate that the suggested approach significantly improves network performance concerning power consumption and stability. Including the power factor in route selection positively influences the network's capacity to maintain efficient communication and reduce the energy consumed. Review based Analysis.

This paper presents a systematic review on different thermal comfort models in Indian residential buildings, to identify which model and building techniques are best suitable for designing affordable housing in warm and humid climate in India. Many case studies and models were reviewed and it was found that comfort studies in Indian residential buildings are scarce, scattered and unorganized. Further, due to differences in socio-cultural set-up and local adaptations, the prodigious variations in occupant's comfort requirements are reported. A literature case study is been done in which a longitudinal field research and in-situ field measurements are used to examine thermal adaptation in Mumbai, India's low-income homes. The comfort-related behaviours in low-income dwellings were influenced by temporal considerations, spatial arrangement, and underlying societal norms. Rather than thermal needs, the gendered socio-cultural practice of the purdah regime and western influences dominated clothing adaption. The study is useful in assessing how occupant behaviour affects building performance, which helps to guide building operation and design. The creation of design criteria for housing plans to produce low-income, thermally comfortable homes could have policy implications.
