We present an on-line crosslayer control technique to characterize and approximate optimal policies for wireless networks. Our approach combines network utility maximization and ad...
In combinatorial solution spaces Iterated Local Search (ILS) turns out to be exceptionally successful. The question arises: is ILS also capable of improving the optimization proces...
The Maximum Differential Backlog (MDB) control policy of Tassiulas and Ephremides has been shown to adaptively maximize the stable throughput of multihop wireless networks with ran...
Recently, optimal linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) filtering methods have been applied for fundamental frequency estimation. Like many other fundamental frequency est...
Given an algorithm A for solving some mathematical problem based on the iterative solution of simpler subproblems, an Outer Trust-Region (OTR) modification of A is the result of ...
