Abstract- In this paper, we investigate the use of a crosslayer allocation mechanism for the high-rate ultra-wideband (UWB) systems. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, throug...
Abstract—This paper investigates Orthogonal FrequencyDivision Multiple-Access (OFDMA) resource-allocation schemes for two-hop relays in a home Powerline Communication (PLC) netwo...
With the continued increase of speed and capacities of computing devices and the growing needs of people for mobile computing capabilities, Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have gai...
Allocating scarce resources among agents to maximize global utility is, in general, computationally challenging. We focus on problems where resources enable agents to execute acti...
Resource allocation is a key problem in autonomic computing. In this paper we use a data center scenario to motivate the need for decentralization and cooperative negotiation, and...
