In this dissertation, we study distributed resource allocation techniques in full reuse multicell networks. Throughout this work, we consider a system model in which simultaneous transmissions mutually interfere, and thus it is applicable to a number of wireless access schemes. On the basis of this model, we define the specific resource allocation problem addressed in this work: joint power all...

According to the structure characteristics of railway viaduct with light floating slabs, a frequency domain dynamic model of the vehicle-light floating slab track-viaduct bridge vertical coupling system is established. The Green functions are used to quickly calculate the receptance response of the system, and then the pseudo excitation method is used to further analyze the parameter influences...

I Supercomputers are capable of providing tremendous computational power, but must be carefully programmed to take advantage of that power. There are several different architectures used in supercomputers, with differing computational models. These different models present a variety of resource allocation problems that must be solved. The computational needs of a program must be cast in terms o...

Latent Dirichlet Allocation is a generative topic model for text. In this report, we implement collapsed Gibbs sampling to learn the topic model. We test our implementation on two data sets: classic400 and Psychological Abstract Review. We also discuss the different evaluation of goodness-of-fit of the models how parameter settings interact with the goodness-of-fit.

This paper presents a locality-sensitive controller, governing the supply of demands for a given resource in a way that takes into account the distances between the requesting vertex and the location of resource. The controller has eecient communication complexities for its allocation and update operations.

The equity premium puzzle shows that using standard parameters and setup, the Consumption-based Capital Asset Pricing Model’s (CCAPM’s) prediction of the premium associated with systematic risk is out by an order of magnitude. The object of this paper is to consider the implications of each of the broad classes of explanations of the equity premium puzzle for resource allocation, welfare and po...

This paper makes two contributions. First, we introduce a model for evaluating the performance of data allocation and replication algorithms in distributed databases. The model is comprehensive in the sense that it accounts for I/O cost, for communication cost, and for limits on the minimum number of copies of the object (to ensure availability). The second contribution of this paper is the int...

This paper analyzes features of perfect taxation – also known as optimal taxation – when one or more private markets is imperfectly competitive. Governments with perfect information and access to lump-sum taxes can provide corrective subsidies that render outcomes efficient in the presence of imperfect competition. Relaxing either of these two conditions removes the government’s ability to supp...

Cloud computing is considered to be a new service provider technology for users and businesses. However, the cloud environment is facing a number of challenges. Resource allocation in a way that is optimum for users and cloud providers is difficult because of lack of data sharing between them. On the other hand, job scheduling is a basic issue and at the same time a big challenge in reaching hi...
