This tutorial paper overviews recent developments in optimization-based approaches for
resource allocation problems in wireless systems. We begin by overviewing important …

Abstract Information flow in a telecommunication network is accomplished through the
interaction of mechanisms at various design layers with the end goal of supporting the …

We consider the problem of throughput-optimal scheduling in wireless networks subject to
interference constraints. We model the interference using a family of K-hop interference …

We study the joint problem of allocating data rates and finding a stabilizing scheduling policy
in a multihop wireless network. We propose a dual optimization based approach through …

In this paper, we characterize the performance of an important class of scheduling schemes,
called greedy maximal scheduling (GMS), for multihop wireless networks. While a lower …

The question of providing throughput guarantees through distributed scheduling, which has
remained an open problem for some time, is addressed in this paper. It is shown that a …

In this paper, we study cross-layer design for congestion control in multihop wireless
networks. In previous work, we have developed an optimal cross-layer congestion control …

In this paper, we study cross-layer design for rate control in multihop wireless networks. In
our previous work, we have developed an optimal cross-layered rate control scheme that …

The purpose of this book is to provide tools for a better understanding of the fundamental
tradeo? s and interdependencies in wireless networks, with the goal of designing resource …

We consider the problem of distributed scheduling in wireless networks subject to simple
collision constraints. We define the efficiency of a distributed scheduling algorithm to be the …
