Optimal power flow problems (OPFs) are mathematical programs used to determine how to distribute power over networks subject to network operation constraints and the physics of power flows. In this work, we take the view of treating an OPF…

Network slicing (NS) and multi-access edge computing (MEC) are new paradigms which play key roles in 5G and beyond networks. NS allows network operators (NOs) to divide the available network resources into multiple logical NSs for providing…

The use of multimedia content has hugely increased in recent times, becoming one of the most important services for the users of mobile networks. Consequently, network operators struggle to optimize their infrastructure to support the best…

Network slicing is the key to enable virtualized resource sharing among vertical industries in the era of 5G communication. Efficient resource allocation is of vital importance to realize network slicing in real-world business scenarios. To…

Network Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are a fundamental component of mobile cellular network monitoring and optimization. Their massive volume, resulting from fine-grained measurements collected across many cells over long time…

As Communication Service Providers (CSPs) adopt the Network Function Virtualization (NFV) paradigm, they need to transition their network function capacity to a virtualized infrastructure with different Network Functions running on a set of…

One of the main goals of 5G networks is to support the technological and business needs of various industries (the so-called verticals), which wish to offer to their customers a wide range of services characterized by diverse performance…

Next generation (5G) wireless networks are expected to support the massive data and accommodate a wide range of services/use cases with distinct requirements in a cost-effective, flexible, and agile manner. As a promising solution, wireless…

Distributed network optimization has been studied for well over a decade. However, we still do not have a good idea of how to design schemes that can simultaneously provide good performance across the dimensions of utility optimality,…

With the increasing popularity of Internet-based services and applications, power efficiency is becoming a major concern for data center operators, as high electricity consumption not only increases greenhouse gas emissions, but also…

The concept of network slice, i.e.,a service customized virtual network (VN) is attracting more and more attentions in the telecommunication industry. A slice is a set of network resources which fits the service attributes and requirements…

Effective network slicing requires an infrastructure/network provider to deal with the uncertain demand and real-time dynamics of network resource requests. Another challenge is the combinatorial optimization of numerous resources, e.g.,…

The paper investigates efficient distributed computation in dynamic networks in which the network topology changes (arbitrarily) from round to round. Our first contribution is a rigorous framework for design and analysis of distributed…

Only the chairs can edit The rapid growth of high-bandwidth applications in fifth-generation (5G) networks and beyond has driven a substantial increase in traffic within transport optical networks. While network slicing effectively…

Emerging edge computing paradigms enable heterogeneous devices to collaborate on complex computation applications. However, for congestible links and computing units, delay-optimal forwarding and offloading for service chain tasks (e.g.,…

We introduce a new achievability scheme, termed opportunistic network decoupling (OND), operating in virtual full-duplex mode. In the scheme, a novel relay scheduling strategy is utilized in the $K\times N\times K$ channel with interfering…
