Current cellular networks are often overloaded by Smartphone traffic, while the users'
Quality of Service (QoS) demands are not met. To cope with this problem, we demonstrate a …

User Centric Networks (UCN) empowers the endusers as providers rather than just
consumers of the network. Cooperation incentives based on reputation and crediting …

In this paper, we focus on the bandwidth allocation issue in wireless access networks, which
are made up of Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) and Worldwide Interoperability for …

Emergence of new wireless technologies has facilitated the way to higher data rates and
more robust communication links. Ultra wideband (UWB) is one of these promising …

Utility functions are widely used to model user-perceived service quality. For elastic traffic,
the utility function is often concave. An elastic allocation (EA) algorithm has recently been …

A novel best-effort utility maximization scheme for video multicast with heterogeneous clients
is proposed. Clients are assumed to have heterogeneous media playback requirements and …

Connectivity control technique in next generation wireless system is a burning issue of
research. Throughout the last few years plenty of researches had been done to obliterate the …

In this thesis, we present several random access algorithms for medium access control in
wireless networks. Optimization theory, game theory, and dynamic programming are applied …
