Optimal Proportional Cake Cutting with Connected Pieces
We consider the classic cake cutting problem where one allocates a divisible cake to n participating agents. Among all valid divisions, fairness and efficiency (a.k.a. social wel...

Mixed Time-Scale Generalized Fair Scheduling for Amplify-and-Forward Relay Networks
Abstract--We devise an optimization framework for generalized proportional fairness (GPF) under different time scales for amplify-and-forward (AF) relay networks. In GPF scheduling...

A queueing analysis of max-min fairness, proportional fairness and balanced fairness
We compare the performance of three usual allocations (max-min fairness, proportional fairness and balanced fairness) in a communication network whose resources are shared by a ra...

Confidently Cutting a Cake into Approximately Fair Pieces
We give a randomized protocol for the classic cake cutting problem that guarantees approximate proportional fairness, and with high probability uses a linear number of cuts.

Optimal CWmin selection for achieving proportional fairness in multi-rate 802.11e WLANs: test-bed implementation and evaluation
We investigate the optimal selection of minimum contention window values to achieve proportional fairness in a multirate IEEE 802.11e test-bed. Unlike other approaches, the propos...
