Accelerated Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm by Cuckoo Search for Solving Engineering Design Problems
Several metaheuristic algorithms have been implemented to solve global optimization issues. Nevertheless, these approaches require more enhancement to strike a suitable harmony between exploration and exploitation. Consequently, this paper proposes improving the arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA) to solve engineering optimization issues based on the cuckoo search algorithm called AOACS. The developed approach uses cuckoo search algorithm operators to improve the ability of the exploitation operations of AOA. AOACS enhances the convergence ratio of the presented technique to find the optimum solution. The performance of the AOACS is examined using 23 benchmark functions and CEC-2019 functions to show the ability of the proposed work to solve different numerical optimization problems. The proposed AOACS is evaluated using four engineering design problems: the welded beam, the three-bar truss, the stepped cantilever beam, and the speed reducer design. Finally, the results of the proposed approach are compared with state-of-the-art approaches to prove the performance of the proposed AOACS approach. The results illustrated an outperformance of AOACS compared to other methods of performance measurement
Improved flat mobile core network architecture for 5G mobile communication systems
The current mobile network core is built based on a centralized architecture, including the S-GW and P-GW entities to serve as mobility anchors. Nevertheless, this architecture causes non-optimal routing and latency for control messages. In contrast, the fifth generation (5G) network will redesign the network service architecture to improve changeover management and deliver clients a better Quality-of-Experience (QoE). To enhance the design of the existing network, a distributed 5G core architecture is introduced in this study. The control and data planes are distinct, and the core network also combines IP functionality anchored in a multi-session gateway design. We also suggest a control node that will fully implement the control plane and result in a flat network design. Its architecture, therefore, improves data delivery, mobility, and attachment speed. The performance of the proposed architecture is validated by improved NS3 simulation to run several simulations, including attachment and inter- and intra-handover. According to experimental data, the suggested network is superior in terms of initial attachment, network delay, and changeover management
