Context-Sensitive Grammars and Linear-Bounded Automata

By Prem Nath

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijcnis.2016.01.08, Pub. Date: 8 Jan. 2016

Linear-bounded automata (LBA) accept context-sensitive languages (CSLs) and CSLs are generated by context-sensitive grammars (CSGs). So, for every CSG/CSL there is a LBA. A CSG is converted into normal form like Kuroda normal form (KNF) and then corresponding LBA is designed. There is no algorithm or theorem for designing a linear-bounded automaton (LBA) for a context-sensitive grammar without converting the grammar into some kind of normal form like Kuroda normal form (KNF). I have proposed an algorithm for this purpose which does not require any modification or normalization of a CSG.

User‘s Profile Replication Tree and On Demand Replica Update in Wireless Communication

By Prem Nath Chiranjeev Kumar

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijcnis.2013.03.08, Pub. Date: 8 Mar. 2013

Replication strategy is mostly useful for replicating the called mobile user's profile at selected locations where some caller mobile users have higher calling rate. It plays important role in personal communication services (PCS) in order to reduce call setup cost and call setup time. In prior replication schemes, replicated sites (visitor location registers) have no inter relationship. We have proposed a novel and innovative replication tree which is buildup from replicated VLRs (visitor location registers). VLRs are replicated based on effective replication probability of caller mobile user. Home location register (HLR) keeps update replica at root VLR in the replication tree and root VLR forwards update replica to a VLR in the replication tree on demand. The main objective of the proposed scheme is to reduce call setup time and call setup cost by enabling replication of called mobile user's location profile at certain visitor location registers (VLRs) where caller mobile user roams. We have presented analytical modeling which shows that setting inter-relationship among the replicated sites helps in further reducing the call setup cost.
