With the rapid development of Internet multimedia applications, the next generation of networks is required to schedule not only the best effort traffic but also the traffic wit...
— We study the problem of determining the minimum number of limited range wavelength converters needed to construct strictly, wide-sense, and rearrangeably nonblocking optical cr...
— We consider optimal control for general networks with both wireless and wireline components and time varying channels. A dynamic strategy is developed to support all traffic w...
Abstract— We develop a dynamic control strategy for minimizing energy expenditure in a time varying wireless network with adaptive transmission rates. The algorithm operates with...
— We consider the problem of scheduling a sequence of packets over a linear network, where every packet has a source and a target, as well as a release time and a deadline by whi...
Abstract— This paper considers compression in packet networks. Since data packets may be dropped or arrive reordered, streaming compression algorithms result in a considerable de...
— In many devices, wireless network interfaces consume upwards of 30% of scarce portable system energy. Extending the system lifetime by minimizing communication power consumptio...
