We consider a general multi-connectivity framework, intended for ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) services, and propose a novel, preallocation-based combinatorial auction approach for the efficient allocation of channels.…
In an online fair allocation problem, a sequence of indivisible items arrives online and needs to be allocated to offline agents immediately and irrevocably. In our paper, we study the online allocation of either goods or chores. We employ…
Online allocation problems with resource constraints have a rich history in operations research. In this paper, we introduce the \emph{regularized online allocation problem}, a variant that includes a non-linear regularizer acting on the…
In this paper, we consider a perfect coordinated water-filling game, where each user transmits solely on a given carrier. The main goal of the proposed algorithm (which we call FEAT) is to get close to the optimal, while keeping a decent…
We consider fair allocation of indivisible items under an additional constraint: there is an undirected graph describing the relationship between the items, and each agent's share must form a connected subgraph of this graph. This framework…
In this paper, we tackle the problem of computing a sequence of rankings with the guarantee of the Pareto-optimal balance between (1) maximizing the utility of the consumers and (2) minimizing unfairness between producers of the items. Such…
Wireless networks are evolving from radio resource providers to complex systems that also involve computing, with the latter being distributed across edge and cloud facilities. Also, their optimization is shifting more and more from a…
In this paper, we consider fair assignment of complex requests for Mobility-On-Demand systems. We model the transportation requests as temporal logic formulas that must be satisfied by a fleet of vehicles. We require that the assignment of…
In-network caching is recognized as an effective solution to offload content servers and the network. A cache service provider (SP) always has incentives to better utilize its cache resources by taking into account diverse roles that…
Modern machine learning workloads use large models, with complex structures, that are very expensive to execute. The devices that execute complex models are becoming increasingly heterogeneous as we see a flourishing of domain-specific…
From an information-theoretic point of view, we investigate the min-max power scheduling problem in multi-access transmission. We prove that the min-max optimal vector in a contrapolymatroid is the base with the minimal distance to the…
In this paper, we study a number of well-known combinatorial optimization problems that fit in the following paradigm: the input is a collection of (potentially inconsistent) local relationships between the elements of a ground set (e.g.,…
In this paper, we study the downlink multiuser scheduling problem for systems with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). We design optimal scheduling algorithms that maximize the long-term average system throughput…
Mobile edge computing seeks to provide resources to different delay-sensitive applications. This is a challenging problem as an edge cloud-service provider may not have sufficient resources to satisfy all resource requests. Furthermore,…
We develop a fluid-flow model for routing problems, where fluid consists of different size particles and the task is to route the incoming fluid to $n$ parallel servers using the size information in order to minimize the mean latency. The…
We give an $O(k^3 n \log n \min(k,\log^2 n) \log^2(nC))$-time algorithm for computing maximum integer flows in planar graphs with integer arc {\em and vertex} capacities bounded by $C$, and $k$ sources and sinks. This improves by a factor…
Nowadays many companies have available large amounts of raw, unstructured data. Among Big Data enabling technologies, a central place is held by the MapReduce framework and, in particular, by its open source implementation, Apache Hadoop.…
Resource allocation is crucial for the performance optimization of cloud-assisted multi-agent intelligence. Traditional methods often overlook agents' diverse computational capabilities and complex operating environments, leading to…
In the standard model of fair allocation of resources to agents, every agent has some utility for every resource, and the goal is to assign resources to agents so that the agents' welfare is maximized. Motivated by job scheduling, interest…
Guaranteeing stringent data freshness for low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in shared spectrum forces a critical trade-off between two operational costs: the UAV's own energy consumption and the occupation of terrestrial channel…
