In this paper, we consider the problem of optimal scalable video delivery to mobile users in wireless networks given arbitrary Quality Adaptation (QA) mechanisms. In current practical systems, QA and scheduling are performed independently…

We consider the problem of rate allocation in a Gaussian multiple-access channel, with the goal of maximizing a utility function over transmission rates. In contrast to the literature which focuses on linear utility functions, we study…

Adaptive bitrate streaming (ABR) over the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which raises numerous delicate questions, is nowadays almost the only approach to video streaming. This paper presents elementary solutions to three key issues:…

The fifth generation and beyond wireless communication will support vastly heterogeneous services and use demands such as massive connection, low latency and high transmission rate. Network slicing has been envisaged as an efficient…

We propose a distributed version of the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) with linear updates for directed networks. We show that if the objective function of the minimization problem is smooth and strongly convex, our…

Adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming enables video users to adapt the playing bitrate to the real-time network conditions to achieve the desirable quality of experience (QoE). In this work, we propose a novel crowdsourced streaming framework…

This paper considers max-min fair rate allocation and routing in energy harvesting networks where fairness is required among both the nodes and the time slots. Unlike most previous work on fairness, we focus on multihop topologies and…

Conventional adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming systems typically rely on static bitrate ladders to optimize Quality of Experience (QoE). While operationally simple, this "one-size-fits-all" approach neglects content-specific characteristics,…

Efficient and fair allocation of multiple types of resources is a crucial objective in a cloud/distributed computing cluster. Users may have diverse resource needs. Furthermore, diversity in server properties/ capabilities may mean that…

We investigate energy-efficiency issues and resource allocation policies for time division multi-access (TDMA) over fading channels in the power-limited regime. Supposing that the channels are frequency-flat block-fading and transmitters…

Emerging reconfigurable optical communication technologies allow to enhance datacenter topologies with demand-aware links optimized towards traffic patterns. This paper studies the algorithmic problem of jointly optimizing topology and…

In a federated setting, agents coordinate with a central agent or a server to solve an optimization problem in which agents do not share their information with each other. Wirth and his co-authors, in a recent paper, describe how the basic…

In this paper, we present a new control model for optimizing pressure and water quality operations in water distribution networks. Our formulation imposes a set of time-coupling constraints to manage temporal pressure variations, which are…

We consider a large-scale parallel-server system, where each server independently adjusts its processing speed in a decentralized manner. The objective is to minimize the overall cost, which comprises the average cost of maintaining the…

We study the half-duplex multiple-relay channel (HD-MRC) where every node can either transmit or listen but cannot do both at the same time. We obtain a capacity upper bound based on a max-flow min-cut argument and achievable transmission…

In this paper an innovative Radio Resource Management (RRM) algorithm is proposed with the purpose of increasing High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) performances, in terms of system capacity and service quality, when the Multimedia Broadcast…

We consider the optimal design of a scheduling policy for adaptive video streaming in a wireless network formed by several users and helpers. A feature of such networks is that any user is typically in the range of multiple helpers. Hence,…

As video-streaming services have expanded and improved, cloud-based video has evolved into a necessary feature of any successful business for reaching internal and external audiences. In this paper, video streaming over distributed storage…

Modern multi-access 5G+ networks provide mobile terminals with additional capacity, improving network stability and performance. However, in highly mobile environments such as vehicular networks, supporting multi-access connectivity remains…

In recent years, with the explosive growth of data traffic, communication base stations (BSs) need to serve more and more users. Offloading traffic from BSs has become an efficient way to reduce the burden on BSs. Device-to-Device (D2D)…
