Driven by the emergence of new compute-intensive applications and the vision of the
Internet of Things (IoT), it is foreseen that the emerging 5G network will face an …

The stringent requirements of wireless multimedia transmission lead to very high radio
spectrum solicitation. Although the radio spectrum is considered as a scarce resource, the …

Since the initial publication of Kelly et al.'s seminal paper on resource allocation in wired
networks, a large number of studies based on the network utility maximization (NUM) …

Considered as a key technology in 5G networks, mobile edge computing (MEC) can support
intensive computation for energy-constrained and computation-limited mobile users (MUs) …

In wireless sensor networks, cross-layer optimization is a hot topic. In order to balance
energy consumption a clustering based cross-layer optimization model is established in this …

In the past, several authors have expressed their concerns over the poor congestion control
in mobile wireless ad-hoc networks using traditional reference layer model. Many solutions …

This paper introduces a fair and energy-efficient resource allocation framework in spectrum-
sharing wireless networks with quality-of-service guarantees. Consider the tradeoff between …

With the emergence of small cell networks and fifth-generation (5G) wireless networks, the
backhaul becomes increasingly complex. This study addresses the problem of how a central …

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) include a large number of sensor nodes that are
connected to each other with the limitations in energy sources, battery life, memory, mobility …

The OSI model used to be a common network model for years. In the case of ad hoc
networks with dynamic topology and difficult radio communications conditions, gradual …
