We consider the massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) diversity channel affected by independent and identically distributed Rayleigh fading, with linear processing at both transmitter and receiver sides, and analyze the outage…

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been applied to a large number of heterogeneous devices and is used in the deployment of a variety of applications on the basis of its distributed open architecture. The majority of these IoT devices are…

This paper addresses the problem of managing rotational load shedding schedules for a power distribution network with multiple load zones. An integer optimization problem is formulated to find the optimal number and duration of planned…

Large-scale traffic forecasting relies on fixed sensor networks that often exhibit blackouts: contiguous intervals of missing measurements caused by detector or communication failures. These outages are typically handled under a Missing At…

In this paper, we propose a method to establish a networked control system that maintains its stability in the presence of certain undesirable incidents on local controllers. We call such networked control systems weakly resilient. We first…

As natural disasters bring about power outage and financial losses, network resiliency is an important challenge for distribution network operators (DNOs). On the other side, power loss reduction during normal operating condition is a major…

In this paper, we utilize Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) models to compare the energy efficiency and performance of a server-centric Passive Optical Networks (PON)-based data centers design with different data centers networking…

In this paper, we consider the network slicing problem which attempts to map multiple customized virtual network requests (also called services) to a common shared network infrastructure and allocate network resources to meet diverse…

Designing networks with specified collective properties is useful in a variety of application areas, enabling the study of how given properties affect the behavior of network models, the downscaling of empirical networks to workable sizes,…

Electrical power systems are one of the most important infrastructures that support our society. However, their vulnerabilities have raised great concern recently due to several large-scale blackouts around the world. In this paper, we…

We study the robustness of interdependent networks where two networks are said to be interdependent if the operation of one network depends on the operation of the other one, and vice versa. In this paper, we propose a model for analyzing…

Providing situational awareness in light of severe coordinated cyber-attacks on power grids, where many measurements may be untrusted, is necessary for reliable monitoring and resilient operation of the grid. In this scenario, the set of…

Engineering networks fall into the category of large-scale networks with heterogeneous nodes such as sources and sinks. The survivability analysis of such networks requires the analysis of the connectivity of the network components for…

The need for resiliency of electricity supply is increasing due to increasing frequency of natural disasters---such as hurricanes---that disrupt supply from the power grid. Rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) panels together with batteries can…

Power-law networks such as the Internet, terrorist cells, species relationships, and cellular metabolic interactions are susceptible to node failures, yet maintaining network connectivity is essential for network functionality.…

Networks in nature rarely function in isolation but instead interact with one another with a form of a network of networks (NoN). A network of networks with interdependency between distinct networks contains instability of abrupt collapse…

We present an application focused on the design of resilient long-reach passive optical networks. We specifically consider dual-parented networks whereby each customer must be connected to two metro sites via local exchange sites. An…

Mixed-integer optimization is at the core of many online decision-making systems that demand frequent updates of decisions in real time. However, due to their combinatorial nature, mixed-integer linear programs (MILPs) can be difficult to…

Multi-connectivity (MCo) is considered to be a key strategy for enabling reliable transmissions and enhanced data rates in fifth-generation mobile networks, as it provides multiple links from source to destination. In this work, we quantify…

It is a well known fact that finite time optimal controllers, such as MPC does not necessarily result in closed loop stable systems. Within the MPC community it is common practice to add a final state constraint and/or a final state penalty…
