— We provide a theoretical framework for cross-layer design in multimedia communications to optimize single-user throughput by selecting the transmitted bit rate and payload size...
— In WDM optical networks connection requests can be classified into three different types: Permanent Lightpath Demands (PLDs), Scheduled Lightpath Demands (SLDs), and Random Li...
In this paper the tradeoff between energy and delay for wireless networks is studied. A network using a request-to-send (RTS) and clear-to-send (CTS) type medium access control (M...

We consider a multi-channel opportunistic communication system where the states of these channels evolve as independent and statistically identical Markov chains (the Gilbert-Elli...
