Distributed Dual Gradient Tracking for Resource Allocation in Unbalanced Networks

Bicriteria Resource Allocation Problem in Pert Networks

We develop a bicriteria model for the resource allocation problem in PERT networks, in which the total direct costs of the project as the first objective, and the mean of project completion time as the second objective are minimized. The activity durations are assumed to be independent random variables with either exponential or Erlang distributions, in which the mean of each activity duration ...

Optimal Distributed Gradient Methods for Network Resource Allocation Problems

We present an optimal distributed gradient method for the Network Utility Maximization (NUM) problem. Most existing works in the literature use (sub)gradient methods for solving the dual of this problem which can be implemented in a distributed manner. However, these (sub)gradient methods suffer from an O(1/ √ k) rate of convergence (where k is the number of iterations). In this paper, we assum...

Distributed Resource Allocation in 5G Cellular Networks

The fifth generation (5G) cellular networks are expected to provide wide variety of high rate (i.e., 300 Mbps and 60 Mbps in downlink and uplink, respectively, in 95 percent of locations and time [1]) multimedia services. The 5G communication platform is seen as a global unified standard with seamless connectivity among existing standards, e.g., High Speed Packet Access (HSPA), Long Term Evolut...
