Wireless sensor networks consist of randomly distributed sensor nodes for monitoring targets or areas of interest. Maintaining the network for continuous surveillance is a challenge due to the limited battery capacity in each sensor.…

This research has addressed three critical challenges inherent in the implementation of drone delivery systems, namely, optimizing battery charging station placement, solving the shortest path problem for drones within their single battery…

In this paper, we investigate the charging scheduling optimization problem for large electric truck fleets operating with dedicated charging infrastructure. A central coordinator jointly determines the charging sequence and power allocation…

The rise of battery-powered vehicles has led to many new technical and methodological hurdles. Among these, the efficient planning of an electric fleet to fulfill passenger transportation requests still represents a major challenge. This is…

In this paper, we present an algorithm which lies in the domain of task allocation for a set of static autonomous radars with rotating antennas. It allows a set of radars to allocate in a fully decentralized way a set of active tracking…

In modern networks, the use of drones as mobile base stations (MBSs) has been discussed for coverage flexibility. However, the realization of drone-based networks raises several issues. One of the critical issues is drones are extremely…

The massive growth of Smart City and Internet of Things applications enables safety and security. The data those are produced from surveillance cameras in aerial devices such as unmanned aerial networks (UAVs) are needed to be transferred…

Allocating tasks to heterogeneous robot teams in environments with uncertain task requirements is a fundamentally challenging problem. Redundantly assigning multiple robots to such tasks is overly conservative, while purely reactive…

Blockchain has recently been applied in many applications such as bitcoin, smart grid, and Internet of Things (IoT) as a public ledger of transactions. However, the use of blockchain in mobile environments is still limited because the…

This paper studies a wireless network where multiple users cooperate with each other to improve the overall network performance. Our goal is to design an optimal distributed power allocation algorithm that enables user cooperation, in…

Millions of battery-powered sensors deployed for monitoring purposes in a multitude of scenarios, e.g., agriculture, smart cities, industry, etc., require energy-efficient solutions to prolong their lifetime. When these sensors observe a…

Drones are currently seen as a viable way for improving the distribution of parcels in urban and rural environments, while working in coordination with traditional vehicles like trucks. In this paper we consider the parallel drone…

Future wireless networks are expected to be highly heterogeneous with the co-existence of macrocells and small cells as well as provide support for device-to-device (D2D) communication. In such muti-tier heterogeneous systems centralized…

This paper presents a new approach for formulating the delivery problem by drones with general energy consumption models where the drones visit a set of places to deliver parcels to customers. Drones can perform multiple trips that start…

A mobile cloud computing system is composed of heterogeneous services and resources to be allocated by the cloud service provider to mobile cloud users. On one hand, some of these resources are substitutable (e.g., users can use storage…

This paper addresses the problem of optimizing charging/discharging schedules of electric vehicles (EVs) when participate in demand response (DR). As there exist uncertainties in EVs' remaining energy, arrival and departure time, and future…

In this paper, we study the problem of coverage of an environment with an energy-constrained robot in the presence of multiple charging stations. As the robot's on-board power supply is limited, it might not have enough energy to cover all…

Auctions are important mechanisms extensively implemented in various markets, e.g., search engines' keyword auctions, antique auctions, etc. Finding an optimal auction mechanism is extremely difficult due to the constraints of imperfect…

Future unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) will be shared by multiple users and will have to operate in conditions where their fully-autonomous function is required. Calculation of a drones trajectory will be important but optimal…

Public electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure has expanded rapidly, yet utilization across charging stations remains uneven and often inefficient. Existing operator-determined pricing schemes offer limited flexibility to coordinate…
