A discernment of round-robin vs SD-WAN load-balancing performance for campus area network
Efficient load balancing is crucial for optimizing network performance and ensuring seamless connectivity in modern campus area networks (CANs). With the proliferation of data-intensive applications and the increasing reliance on cloud-based services, organizations are seeking effective load-balancing solutions to distribute network traffic evenly across available resources. The continuous improvement of devices, tools, and techniques to cater a large amount of network traffic, started to be employed on different campuses. Understanding the best approach to maximize the utilization of the network resources is crucial in order to stabilize and maintain the network. The study aims to discern the round-robin and software defined-wide area network (SD-WAN) techniques based on defined metrics and conducted with a predefined payload for commonly used application conditions. The analysis shows that SD-WAN delivers a much superior performance than round-robin based on the criteria. The local area network (LAN) test shows difference between the two types of technology for the three given metrics. The WAN test shows that the round-robin has higher packet loss, latency, and jitter than the SD-WAN technology. While round-robin may suffice for small-scale deployments with relatively homogeneous traffic patterns, SD-WAN offers more sophisticated capabilities for larger CANs with diverse application workloads and distributed locations

Handwritten digit recognition using a column scheme-based local directional number pattern
One of the most well-known challenges in computer vision and machine learning is the recognition of handwritten digits. This study presents an advanced approach to improving isolated-digit recognition through the use of advanced feature extraction techniques. For example, digit recognition is commonly used to read numbers on forms and checks in banks. This paper introduces a novel method of extending the local directional number pattern (LDNP) to a column scheme using two different masks and their resolutions. A new descriptor of the LDNP column scheme is being proposed that combines derivative Gaussian and Kirsch masks in order to enhance textural analysis and capture more detailed local textual information. This approach is highly efficient and robust, able to handle variations in size, shape, and slant. Additionally, the support vector machine (SVM) is employed as a classifier, which has been shown to make better decisions. The empirical investigation is carried out using the CVL dataset, resulting in recognition rates that are comparable with the latest advancements in the field. The overall precision of 96.64% is achieved, outperforming existing similar works
