Virtual network mapping is one of the main problems in network virtualization. At present, virtual networking mapping aims at minimal resource consumption at substrate network, but ignores the resource demanded by the hidden hops, making bottlenecks due to the resource shortage at the hidden hops. This paper aims at the simultaneous loading balance of the substrate node and the substrate link, ...

There are some existing works that study the coexistence of 802.16 and 802.11 networks. However, not many of them consider the resource allocation issues in the case of delivering traffic between mobile stations and Internet users through an access point (AP) and a base station (BS) which operate at the same frequency band. In this paper, we design a cooperation mechanism for 802.16 and 802.11 ...

With the innovation of cloud computing industry lots of services were provided based on different deployment criteria. Nowadays everyone tries to remain connected and demand maximum utilization of resources with minimum timeand effort. Thus, making it an important challenge in cloud computing for optimum utilization of resources. To overcome this issue, many techniques have been proposed ...

Bottlenecks play the key role in determining overall performance of manufacturing systems. Improving the performance of bottlenecks may lead to low inventory, appropriate utilization, short lead time and low schedule deviation. Therefore, consideration of bottlenecks is of prime importance at all levels of decision-making in production management practice (e.g. Production Planning and Control) ...

Often, prior knowledge of subword units is unavailable for low-resource languages. Instead, a global subword unit description, such as a universal phone set, is typically used in such scenarios. One major bottleneck for existing speechprocessing systems is their reliance on transcriptions. Unfortunately, the preponderance of data becoming available everyday is only worsening the problem, as pro...

For collective communications, the upper limit of a network's capacity is its liquid throughput. The liquid throughput corresponds to the flow of a liquid in an equivalent network of pipes. However, in communication networks, the aggregate throughput of a collective communication pattern (traffic) scheduled according to straight forward topology unaware techniques may be several times lower tha...

Information bottleneck is an information-theoretic principle of representation learning that aims to learn a maximally compressed preserves as much information about labels possible. Under this principle, two different methods have been proposed, i.e., (IB) and deterministic (DIB), gained significant progress in explaining the mechanisms deep algorithms. However, these theoretical empirical suc...
