Online multi-resource scheduling for minimum task completion time in cloud servers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We design a simple and efficient online scheme for scheduling cloud tasks requesting multiple resources, such as CPU and memory. The proposed scheme reduces the queuing delay of the cloud tasks by accounting for their ...
Online assignment and placement of cloud task requests with heterogeneous requirements
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Managing cloud resources in a way that reduces the consumed energy while also meeting clients demands is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose an energy-aware resource allocation framework that: i) places the ...
Forced spectrum access termination probability analysis under restricted channel handoff
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Most existing works on cognitive radio networks assume that cognitive (or secondary) users are capable of switching/jumping to any available channel, regardless of the frequency gap between the target and the current ...
Dynamic power pricing using distributed resource allocation for large-scale DSA systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose dynamic power pricing for distributed resource allocation in large-scale Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) systems. The dynamic power pricing is considered to influence the users' spectrum assignment ...
Design and implementation of distributed dynamic spectrum allocation protocol
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we design, implement, and evaluate a resource allocation protocol for distributed dynamic spectrum access (DSA). This protocol, based on learning techniques, enables users to locate and exploit unused spectrum ...
Joint user-channel assignment for efficient use of renewable energy in hybrid powered communication systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we introduce a new green resource allocation problem using hybrid powering of the communication system from renewable and non-renewable sources. The objective is to efficiently allocate the power delivered ...
Distributed dynamic spectrum access with adaptive power allocation: Energy efficiency and cross-layer awareness
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes energy and cross-layer aware resource allocation techniques that allow dynamic spectrum access users, by means of learning algorithms, to locate and exploit unused spectrum opportunities effectively. ...
EM-MAC: An energy-aware multi-channel MAC protocol for multi-hop wireless networks
(2012 , Conference Paper)
We propose an energy-aware MAC protocol, referred to as EM-MAC, for multi-hop wireless networks with multi-channel access capabilities. EM-MAC relies on iMAC's efficient channel selection mechanism to resolve the medium ...
BIRD-VNE: Backtrack-avoidance virtual network embedding in polynomial time
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The virtual network embedding (VNE) problem is known to be NP-hard, and as a result, several heuristic approaches have been proposed to solve it. These heuristics find sub-optimal solutions in polynomial time, but have ...
Handoff-aware cross-layer assisted multi-path TCP for proactive congestion control in mobile heterogeneous wireless networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP) is a new evolution of TCP that enables a single MPTCP connection to use multiple TCP subflows transparently to applications. Each subflow runs independently allowing the connection to be maintained ...
