Abstract
Objective: A new variant of energy-constrained Quickest Path Problem (QPP) is being addressed in Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy environment. The consideration of energy with QPP enables to compute the path for continuity aware critical applications. This new variant problem called as Energy-constrained Intuitionistic Trapezoidal Fuzzy Quickest Path Problem (EITFQPP) has been considered and the computations for quickest path have been carried out.
Methods: As one of the important feature of the proposed model, the weight parameters associated with a given link, e.g., delay, capacity, energy and data which are completely unknown and therefore, based on the real life situations, they may be assumed as intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. An algorithm to solve the EITFQPP for transmitting the fuzzy data in the network, where the nodes are associated with a sufficient amount of energy (imprecise) for continuous data flow, has been proposed.
Results: In order to illustrate the implementation of the proposed algorithm, a numerical example of a benchmark network has been provided. The proposed algorithm successfully provides a quickest path using shortest paths computations under the energy constrained approach.
Conclusion: The illustration through a numerical example shows the effectiveness of consideration of energy in the selections of set of paths. Finally, some of the possible directions for the future research are also discussed.
Keywords: Continuity, energy-constraint, green communication, intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy number, quickest path problem, proposed algorithm.
