(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
Energy efficiency has recently become a major issue in large data centers due to financial and environmental concerns. This paper proposes an integrated energy-Aware resource provisioning framework for cloud data centers. ...
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 ...
Analyzing cognitive network access efficiency under limited spectrum handoff agility
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Most existing studies on cognitive-radio networks assume that cognitive users (CUs) can switch to any available channel, regardless of the frequency gap between a target channel and the current channel. However, due to ...
Improving macrocell downlink throughput in rayleigh fading channel environment through femtocell user cooperation
(2013 , Article)
This paper studies cooperative techniques that rely on femtocell user diversity to improve the downlink communication quality of macrocell users. We analytically derive and evaluate the achievable performance of these ...
Design and implementation of credit-based resource allocation protocol for DSA systems
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper designs, implements, and evaluates an efficient dynamic spectrum access (DSA) protocol for cognitive radio networks. The proposed protocol relies on the concept of credit value to allocate resources among users ...
