The interference reduction capability of antenna arrays, base station assignment, and the power control algorithms have been considered separately as means to increase the capacity in wireless communication networks. In this paper, we propose smart step closedloop power control (SSPC) algorithm and base station assignment method based on minimizing the transmitter power (BSA-MTP) technique for ...

The minimum range assignment problem consists of assigning transmission ranges to the stations of a multi-hop packet radio network so as to minimize the total power consumption provided that the transmission range assigned to the stations ensures the strong connectivity of the network (i.e. each station can communicate with any other station by multi-hop transmission). The complexity of this op...

This article addresses the issue of assigning electric vehicles to charging stations, minimizing maximum completion time. It envisions interaction between and infrastructure match supply demand in a decentralized collaborative fashion. For this reason, assignment is regarded as linear integer programming problem Lagrangian relaxation heuristic proposed solve it. Thus, each vehicle selects stati...

intentional assignment of entitlements (as opposed to debts) is a legal institution which is based on the possibility of separation of entitlements from the personality of creditor and of its assignment to a third party. in the voluntary assignment of entitlements, the creditors may assign their rights to a third party. after long discussions, voluntary assignment of rights has been accepted in...

Given a set N of radio stations located on an Euclidean space, a source station s and an integer h (16 h6 |N | − 1), the minimum bounded-hop broadcast range assignment problem consists in 8nding a range assignment for N of minimum total power consumption that allows broadcast operations from s to every station in N in at most h hops. The problem is known to be NP-hard on d-dimensional spaces fo...

The interference reduction capability of antenna arrays, base station assignment and the power control algorithms have been considered separately as means to increase the capacity in wireless communication networks. In this paper, we propose base station assignment method based on minimizing the transmitter power (BSA-MTP) technique in a direct sequence-code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) r...

This paper develops an optimization framework for self-organizing networks (SON). The objective is to ensure efficient network operation by a joint optimization of different SON functionalities, which includes capacity, coverage and load balancing. Based on the axiomatic framework of monotone and strictly subhomogeneous function, we formulate an optimization problem for the uplink and propose a...

Line balancing is an effective tool to improve the throughput of assembly line while reducing nonvalue-added activities, cycle time. LB is the problem of assigning operation to workstation along an assembly line, in such a way that assignment is optimal in some sense. This paper mainly focuses on improving overall efficiency of single model assembly line by reducing the non value added activiti...
