The aim of the workshop series Developments in Computational Models (DCM) is to bring together researchers who are currently developing new computational models or new features for traditional computational models, in order to foster their…

In this article, we provide an overview of machine learning (ML) methods, both classical and deep variants, that are used to implement self-healing for cell outages in cellular networks. Self-healing is a promising approach to network…

Modern hardware platforms, from the very small to the very large, increasingly provide parallel and distributed computing resources for applications to maximise performance. Many applications therefore need to make effective use of tens,…

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (massive MIMO) and small cell densification are complementary key 5G enablers. Given a fixed number of the entire base-station antennas per unit area, this paper fairly compares (i) to deploy few base…

Wireless networks employing small cells like femtocells are considered to be the choice of network deployment for 4G or advanced networks. This hierarchical deployment of cells introduces the necessity of effective frequency planning for…

The employment of power lines for communications (PLC) has been theorized almost a century ago; although the physical medium is not meant for data transmission, recent technical developments pushed the capacity boundary much higher than…

To improve the cellular energy efficiency, without sacrificing quality-of-service (QoS) at the users, the network topology must be densified to enable higher spatial reuse. We analyze a combination of two densification approaches, namely…

This paper develops an optimization framework for self-organizing networks (SON). The objective is to ensure efficient network operation by a joint optimization of different SON functionalities, which includes capacity, coverage and load…

3GPP has introduced LTE Femtocells to manipulate the traffic for indoor users and to minimize the charge on the Macro cells. A key mechanism in the LTE traffic handling is the packet scheduler which is in charge of allocating resources to…

Machine learning (ML) is included in Self-organizing Networks (SONs) that are key drivers for enhancing the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) activities. It is included in the 5G Standalone (SA) system is one of the 5G…

Considering both non-line-of-sight (NLoS) and line-of-sight (LoS) transmissions, the transitional behaviors from noise-limited regime to dense interference-limited regime have been investigated for the fifth generation (5G) small cell…

This volume contains the proceedings of FOCLASA 2015, the 14th International Workshop on the Foundations of Coordination Languages and Self-Adaptive Systems. FOCLASA 2015 was held in Madrid, Spain, on September 5, 2015 as a satellite event…

Femtocells are an emerging technology aimed at providing gains to both network operators and end-users. These gains come at a cost of increased interference, specifically the cross network interference between the macrocell and femtocell…

We consider the downlink of a two-layer heterogeneous network, comprising macro cells (MCs) and small cells (SCs). The existing literature generally assumes independent placements of the access points (APs) in different layers; in contrast,…

OFDMA systems are considered as the promising multiple access scheme of next generation multi-cellular wireless systems. In order to ensure the optimum usage of radio resources, OFDMA radio resource management algorithms have to maximize…

Emergence of new types of services has led to various traffic and diverse delay requirements in fifth generation (5G) wireless networks. Meeting diverse delay requirements is one of the most critical goals for the design of 5G wireless…

One of the efficient solutions of improving coverage and increasing capacity in cellular networks is the deployment of femtocells. As the cellular networks are becoming more complex, energy consumption of whole network infrastructure is…

The evolving fifth generation (5G) cellular wireless networks are envisioned to provide higher data rates, enhanced end-user quality-of-experience (QoE), reduced end-to-end latency, and lower energy consumption. This article presents…

Self-Organized networks (SONs) have been studied for many years, and have attracted many researchers due to their substantial applications. Although the performance of such networks in the lower band networks (sub-6 GHz band frequencies)…

In multicellular organisms, cells coordinate their activities through cell-cell communication (CCC), which is crucial for development, tissue homeostasis, and disease progression. Recent advances in single-cell and spatial omics…
