— We present a dynamic optimization approach to save energy in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) at the link level. One of the main sources of energy waste in a WSN is idle listenin...
— Ergodic stochastic optimization (ESO) algorithms are proposed to solve resource allocation problems that involve a random state and where optimality criteria are expressed in t...
: For an infinite-horizon optimal control problem, the cost does not, in general, converge. The classical work-around to this problem is to introduce a discount or "forgetting...
