Coverage is one of the fundamental issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). It reflects the ability of WSNs to detect the fields of interest. In a real sensor networks application, the detection area is always non-ideal and the terrain of…

A social choice procedure is modeled as a repeated Nash game between the social agents, who are communicating with each other through a social communication network modeled by an undirected graph. The agents' criteria for this game are…

Sensor network virtualization is a promising paradigm to move away from highlycustomized, application-specific wireless sensor networks deployment by opening up to the possibility of dynamically assigning general purpose physical resources…

Random walks by single-node agents have been systematically conducted on various types of complex networks in order to investigate how their topologies can affect the dynamics of the agents. However, by fitting any network node, these…

Swarm Intelligence-based optimization techniques combine systematic exploration of the search space with information available from neighbors and rely strongly on communication among agents. These algorithms are typically employed to solve…

A neural network works as an associative memory device if it has large storage capacity and the quality of the retrieval is good enough. The learning and attractor abilities of the network both can be measured by the mutual information…

We study the problem of interference management in fast fading wireless networks, in which the transmitters are only aware of network topology. We consider a class of retransmission-based schemes, where transmitters in the network are only…

In this paper we study the controllability of networked systems with static network topologies using tools from algebraic graph theory. Each agent in the network acts in a decentralized fashion by updating its state in accordance with a…

Network structure plays a critical role in functionality and performance of network systems. This paper examines structural adaptivity of diffusively coupled, directed multi-agent networks that are subject to diffusion performance. Inspired…

Small cell networks are seen as a promising technology for boosting the performance of future wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a novel context-aware user-cell association approach for small cell networks that exploits the…

The last mile connection is dominated by wireless links where heterogeneous nodes share the limited and already crowded electromagnetic spectrum. Current contention based decentralized wireless access system is reactive in nature to…

It is important that the wireless network is well optimized and planned, using the limited wireless spectrum resources, to serve the explosively growing traffic and diverse applications needs of end users. Considering the challenges of…

In this paper, we investigate the transmission range assignment for N wireless nodes located on a line (a linear wireless network) for broadcasting data from one specific node to all the nodes in the network with minimum energy. Our goal is…

Future wireless networks are moving toward autonomous service operation, where network control and resource management need to respond to time-varying radio conditions and evolving service objectives. To address this shift, this article…

We investigate methods for network association that improve the reliability of uplink transmissions in dense wireless heterogeneous networks. The stochastic geometry analysis shows that the double association, in which an uplink…

We introduce a new class of network allocation games called graphical distance preservation games. Here, we are given a graph, called a topology, and a set of agents that need to be allocated to its vertices. Moreover, every agent has an…

The largest eigenvalue of a network's adjacency matrix and its associated principal eigenvector are key elements for determining the topological structure and the properties of dynamical processes mediated by it. We present a physically…

In this paper, we present optimization approaches for Access Point (AP) location and frequency assignment, two major planning tasks in deploying Wi-Fi networks. Since APs are relatively cheap, the major concern is network performance. We…

The development of mobile virtual network operators, where multiple wireless technologies (e.g. 3G and 4G) or operators with non-overlapping bandwidths are pooled and shared is expected to provide enhanced service with broader coverage,…

We investigate a prototypical agent-based model, the Naming Game, on random geometric networks. The Naming Game is a minimal model, employing local communications that captures the emergence of shared communication schemes (languages) in a…
