This research presents a model for optimal allocation of Iranian oil and gas resources in sanction condition based on stochastic linear multi-objective programming. The general policies of the resistive economy include expanding exports of gas, electricity, petrochemical and petroleum products, expanding the strategic oil and gas reserves, increasing added value through completing the petroleum...

Deadlock is a major problem for systems that allocate resources in real-time. The key issue in deadlock avoidance is whether or not a given resource allocation state is safe, that is, whether or not there exists a sequence of resource allocations that completes all processes. Although safety is established as NP-complete for certain broad resource allocation classes, newly emerging resource all...

Different transport stakeholders have different needs for transport infrastructure and services. Meeting the needs of all stakeholders implies a trade-off of benefits and costs between supply and demand and creates transport diversity issues. However, the literature has largely ignored these issues. Transport diversity can assess the level to which important needs are satisfied equitably, and m...

Due to the success of new multimedia technologies, there is a great interest for providing a resource allocation strategy suitable for multimedia applications. Many solutions proposed in literature are based on proportional share resource allocation, such as WFQ, WF2Q, EEVDF, or SFQ. In a previous paper, we showed how to perform resource reservation according to a Constant Bandwidth allocation....

In a typical resource allocation model, clients request a xed amount of a certain resource from the resource manager (RM). Based on the current allocations, the RM grants or rejects the request. An alternative abstract model for the resource allocation problem assumes that the client speciies his request as a range of possible allocations rather than a xed point requirement. The client is assum...

This paper addresses the utility-based radio resource allocation problem in DS-CDMA systems carrying multimedia traffic. The proposed scheme, aiming at achieving optimal resource allocation, considers the joint power and data rate allocation. To avoid high computational complexity of nonlinear optimization, we reformulate the radio resource allocation problem as a market model, where resource i...
