A one-step sixth-order computational method is proposed in this paper for the solution of second order free undamped and free damped motions in mass-spring systems. The method of interpolation and collocation of power series approximate solution was adopted to generate a continuous computational hybrid linear multistep method which was evaluated at grid points to give a continuous block method. The resultant discrete block method was recovered when the continuous block method was evaluated at selected grid points. The basic properties of the method was also investigated and found to be zero-stable, consistent and convergent.

However, several initiatives are being put in place to reduce the power consumption of the ICT sector in general. To this goal, we propose a novel model. The new model, which is developed based upon input-oriented Chanes, Cooper and Rhodes (CCR) data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology is an alternative solution to the existing minimum power multicast methodology that is developed using Multicast Incremental Power (MD?) algorithm. The simulation result of the MD? algorithm is compared with the empirical DEA model, and the results, using DEA implementation, show that it is possible to further reduce the average multicast power in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) if they operate efficiently.

With the rapid development of applications and networks, there is a need to optimize the transmission energy within a multicast group for efficient traffic in both wired and wireless channels. This paper discusses major algorithms for multicasting and then focuses on the analysis of Multicast Incremental Power (MIP) algorithm and the recently proposed Network coding based (NC) algorithm using energy-efficiency as metric. The performance of these algorithms are evaluated and optimized for energy reduction on communication networks. The results show a reduction in multicast energy as network size increases with decrease in multicast energy as the multicast group size increases for both wired and wireless networks.

The introduction of convex set segment of a symmetric matrix is explored to establish boundedness of the first derivative of the formulated functional. The integral-differential equation is utilized in computing the maximum delay interval for the system to attain stability. Its application to numerical problems confirms the suitability of the test.

We further test whether or not the integrator satisfies the conditions for convergence, consistence and stability. From the analysis presented, it is obvious that the new numerical integrator can provide accurate solution to the original differential equation.
