Traffic delay is a key metric to measure the quality-of-service of next-generation wireless
communication networks. In this paper, we consider a cloud radio access network …

Existing public safety networks (PSNs) are not designed to cope with disasters such as
terrorist attacks, consequently leading to long delays and intolerable response times. First …

Tactile Internet is an emerging paradigm of the next generation mobile networks (5G and
beyond). Conceptually designed to respond to the most complex requirements of ultra-low …

In cloud radio access networks (C-RANs), a local controller controls a set of lightweight
remote radio heads (RRHs) for connecting users nearby, and creates virtual machines …

The drastic growth of mobile traffic greatly challenges the capacity of mobile infrastructures.
Dense deployment of low-power small cells helps alleviate the congestion in the radio …

In each group of a Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), a local controller controls a set of
