Relay-enabled wireless networks (eg. WIMAX 802.16j) represent an emerging trend for the incorporation of multi-hop networking solutions for last-mile broadband access in next gene...
Point estimates of the parameters in real world models convey valuable information about the actual system. However, parameter comparisons and/or statistical inference requires de...
Abstract: Probabilistically constrained problems, in which the random variables are finitely distributed, are nonconvex in general and hard to solve. The p-efficiency concept has b...
