We propose a new method for opportunistic power control in multi-carrier interference channels for delay-tolerant data services. In doing so, we utilize a game theoretic framework with novel constraints, where each user tries to maximize its utility in a distributed and opportunistic manner, while satisfying the game’s constraints by adapting its transmit power to its channel. In this scheme, u...

Hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM) is an adult onset, slowly progressive distal and proximal myopathy. Although the causing gene, GNE, encodes for a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of sialic acid, its primary function in HIBM remains unknown. The goal of this study was to unravel new clues on the biological pathways leading to HIBM by proteomic comparison. Muscle cultures and biopsies wer...

Abstract This paper studies convex generalized Nash equilibrium problems that are given by polynomials. We use rational and parametric expressions for Lagrange multipliers to formulate efficient polynomial optimization computing equilibria (GNEs). The Moment-SOS hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations used solve the optimization. Under some general assumptions, we prove method can find a GNE if t...

Network Quality-of-Service (QoS) is a central characteristic of the design of modern communication systems. Before designing and implementing communication systems, network QoS requirements and QoS mappings have to be specified and analyzed. In this paper, we provide language and tool support for this purpose. To specify network QoS requirements and QoS mappings, we define a formal description ...

Let us consider a game with n players where the set of possible strategies depend on the decision of the other player. In this case, if the players behave rationally the solution is a point of generalized Nash equilibrium (GNE). These points can be obtained as solutions of a special class of bilevel programs. In this work, the bilevel problem is substituted by a simpler model which can be solve...
