Abstract

Waste Management System (WMS) is applied in smart cities and is supported by the Internet of Things (IoT). WMS involves several responsibilities, such as collection, disposal, and utilization of waste in relevant facilities. Efficient waste management has a considerable impact on the quality of life of citizens in smart cities. The interaction between wireless sensor networks and mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) with IoT provides excellent mobility for users, and reduces the deployment costs of networks. Data transfer via the intermediate connected devices must be maintained to shorten the distance between the devices. Intelligent routing algorithm is proposed to find efficient paths that comply with the WMS requirement constraints and avoid invalid paths that cause increased computation time. Chromosome intersection operation on genetic-based routing algorithm, intersection activation function, and intersection node table are proposed to avoid the similarity and redundancy of generated paths and keep the validity of the paths. This study improves the path finding, obtains good results, and increases the rate of efficient paths. Results show that the selected path is efficient in terms of distance, number of hops and number of iterations by using the proposed method. In addition, this proposed method outperforms DSR, which offers alternative paths with more efficiency.

Summary

Introduction

In the current world of technology, various physical things can be used for smart cities and the facilitation of human work. The Internet of Things (IoT) is an innovative technology and a good solution, which allows the connection of physical things with the digital world through heterogeneous networks and communication technologies. The IoT in smart environments interacts with wireless sensor networks (WSN) and mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), making it highly attractive to users and economically successful. The interaction between WSNs and MANETs with IoT allows the creation of new MANET-IoT systems and IT-based networks. These systems provide excellent mobility for users and reduce deployment costs of networks. A MANET is the most promising and rapidly growing technology, and it has become a very popular research topic in recent years
