We consider models of content delivery networks in which the servers are constrained by two main resources: memory and bandwidth. In such systems, the throughput crucially depends on how contents are replicated across servers and how the…

This paper considers optimization of power and delay in a time-varying wireless link using rateless codes. The link serves a sequence of variable-length packets. Each packet is coded and transmitted over multiple slots. Channel conditions…

We provide in this paper a comprehensive delay and queueing analysis for two baseline medium access control (MAC) protocols for multi-user cognitive radio (CR) networks and investigate the impact of different network parameters, such as…

In this paper, the problem of proactive deployment of cache-enabled unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for optimizing the quality-of-experience (QoE) of wireless devices in a cloud radio access network (CRAN) is studied. In the considered…

We focus on the downlink of a cellular system, which corresponds to the bulk of the data transfer in such wireless systems. We address the problem of opportunistic multiuser scheduling under imperfect channel state information, by…

We propose algorithms for cloud radio access networks that not only provide heterogeneous quality of-service (QoS) for rate- and, importantly, delay-sensitive applications, but also jointly optimize the frequency reuse pattern. Importantly,…

We study a distributed user association algorithm for a heterogeneous wireless network with the objective of maximizing the sum of the utilities (on the received throughput of wireless users). We consider a state dependent wireless network,…

Imposing fairness in resource allocation incurs a loss of system throughput, known as the Price of Fairness ($PoF$). In wireless scheduling, $PoF$ increases when serving users with very poor channel quality because the scheduler wastes…

Motivated by the increasing importance of providing delay-guaranteed services in general computing and communication systems, and the recent wide adoption of learning and prediction in network control, in this work, we consider a general…

This paper describes a new approach for allocating resources to video streaming traffic. Assuming that the future channel state can be predicted for a certain time, we minimize the fraction of the bandwidth consumed for smooth streaming by…

Human-centric applications such as virtual reality and immersive gaming will be central to the future wireless networks. Common features of such services include: a) their dependence on the human user's behavior and state, and b) their need…

Motivated by cloud computing applications, we study the problem of how to optimally deploy new hardware subject to both power and robustness constraints. To model the situation observed in large-scale data centers, we introduce the Online…

In this paper, we propose a systematic solution to the problem of scheduling delay-sensitive media data for transmission over time-varying wireless channels. We first formulate the dynamic scheduling problem as a Markov decision process…

Caching at the base stations brings the contents closer to the users, reduces the traffic through the backhaul links, and reduces the delay experienced by the cellular users. The cellular network operator may charge the content providers…

Scheduling of service requests in Cloud computing has traditionally focused on the reduction of pre-service wait, generally termed as waiting time. Under certain conditions such as peak load, however, it is not always possible to give…

The fifth generation wireless networks must provide fast and reliable connectivity while coping with the ongoing traffic growth. It is of paramount importance that the required resources, such as energy and bandwidth, do not scale with…

We consider the pull-based broadcast scheduling model. In this model, there are n unit-sized pages of information available at the server. Requests arrive over time at the server asking for a specific page. When the server transmits a page,…

Joint scheduling and routing of data flows with deadline constraints in communication networks has been attracting research interest. This type of problem distinguishes from conventional multicommodity flows due to the presence of the time…

In this paper, we consider the coded-caching broadcast network with user cooperation, where a server connects with multiple users and the users can cooperate with each other through a cooperation network. We propose a centralized coded…

We consider the problem of distributed scheduling in wireless networks where heterogeneously delayed information about queue lengths and channel states of all links are available at all the transmitters. In an earlier work (by Reddy et al.…
