We consider a queuing problem in which both the service rate of a finite-buffer queue and its rate of arrivals are functions of the same partially observed Markov chain. Basic performance indices of this device, such as long term throughput and loss rates, ...
Terminode routing, defined for potentially very large mobile ad hoc networks, forwards packets along anchored paths. An anchored path is a list of fixed geographic points, called anchors. Given that geographic points do not move, the advantage to tradition ...
We consider the transmission of variable bit rate video over a network offering a guaranteed service such as ATM VBR or the guaranteed service of the IETF. The guaranteed service requires that the flow accepted by the network has to be conforming with a tr ...
We consider the problem of providing delay bounds to reserved traffic in high-speed input-queued switches. We assume that the matrix of bandwidth demands is known and we use the now standard approach of decomposing this matrix into a convex combination of ...
We present a novel scheduling algorithm, Duplicate Scheduling with Deadlines (DSD). This algorithm implements the ABE service which allows interactive, adaptive applications, that mark their packets green, to receive a low bounded delay at the expense of m ...

Applications running on a mobile wireless device most be able to adapt gracefully to limited and fluctuating network resources. When multiple applications run on the same device, control over bandwidth scheduling becomes fundamental in order to coordinate ...
Current TCP-friendly congestion control mechanisms such as those used in TFRC adjust the packet rate in order to adapt to network conditions and obtain a throughput not exceeding that of a TCP connection operating under the same conditions. In an environme ...
We explore the scheduling rules and the hedging levels that can be obtained by using a restless bandit problem formulation of a make-to-stock production. The underlying dynamics are a Markov chain in continuous time and the associated rewards are piecewise ...
The controller synthesis paradigm provides a general framework for scheduling real-time applications. Schedulers can be considered as controllers of the applications; they restrict their behavior so that given scheduling requirements are met. We study a mo ...
