Abstract— Network utility maximization (NUM) problems provide an important approach to conduct network resource management such as end-to-end rate allocation. In the existing lit...
A systematic understanding of the decomposability structures in network utility maximization is key to both resource allocation and functionality allocation. It helps us obtain the...
Most existing work uses dual decomposition and subgradient methods to solve Network Utility Maximization (NUM) problems in a distributed manner, which suffer from slow rate of con...
Abstract--Network performance can be increased if the traditionally separated network layers are jointly optimized. Recently, network utility maximization has emerged as a powerful...
Abstract— Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are energyconstrained in nature, in this paper, we formulate the problem of data transport in sensor networks as a network utility maxim...
