Abstract

With the development of new networking paradigms and wireless protocols, nodes with different capabilities are used to form a heterogeneous network. The performance of this kind of networks is seriously deteriorated because of the bottlenecks inside the network. In addition, because of the application requirements, different routing schemes are required toward one particular application. This needs a tool to design protocols to avoid the bottlenecked nodes and adaptable to application requirement. Polychromatic sets theory has the ability to do so. This paper demonstrates the applications of polychromatic sets theory in route discovery and protocols design for heterogeneous networks. From extensive simulations, it shows the nodes with high priority are selected for routing, which greatly increases the performance of the network. This demonstrates that a new type of graph theory could be applied to solve problems of complex networks.
