In this paper, the requirements of routing due to the multimedia applications are briefly discussed. In order to solve the QoS constrained routing effectively and efficiently, the scheme of routing based on Hopfield neural network is proposed after the analysis of related work. Then the QoS routing algorithm for unicast based on Hopfield NN is described and the result of emulation is given. At last, multicast QoS routing considerations based on Hopfield NN are proposed.
The development of agile manufacturing needs network supports. “Information Island” begot by CIMS LANs could be integrated efficiently by using Internet and Web so as to solve “Automation island” problem thoroughly. In this paper, a brief view on the MMS protocol and Web technology is given. Next, we propose an approach to extend CIMS (computer integrated manufacturing system) LANs to Internet/Intranet environments, on the basis of which, a Web based air conditioner MMS (manufacturing message specification) integrated monitor system is implemented.
