This paper studies the use of pricing as an incentive mechanism to encourage private, self-interested nodes to participate in a public wireless mesh network and cooperate in the p...
We address performance issues associated with simulationbased algorithms for optimizing Markov reward processes. Specifically, we are concerned with algorithms that exploit the re...
Quality of service (QoS) is becoming an attractive feature for high-performance networks and parallel machines because it could allow a more efficient use of resources. Deadline-...
A state-of-the-art orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based access system, such as the DiffSeg system [1][2], uses a different set of transmission technologies, e.g...
—We investigate optimal resource allocation and power management in virtualized data centers with time-varying workloads and heterogeneous applications. Prior work in this area u...
