Resource allocation for high-performance real-time applications is challenging due to the applications’ datadependent nature, the dynamic changes in their external environment, and the limited resources available of the embedded systems on which they run. These challenges may be met by use of Adaptive Resource Allocation (ARA) mechanisms that can promptly adjust resource allocation to changes i...

the importance of health indicators in the recent years has created challenges in resource allocation. balanced and fair distribution of health resources is one of the main principles in achieving equity. the goal of this cross-sectional descriptive study, conducted in 2010, was to classify health structural indicators in the fars province using the scalogram technique. health structural indica...

due to consuming about 50%-80% of health resources, hospitals are the greatest and costly operational units in iranian health system. so allocation of resources specially human and space resources as the most expensive ones is really important for further controlling of costs, analysis of costs and making suitable policies for increasing the profitability and allocation of resources and improve...

A channel allocation algorithm includes a channel acquisition and a channel selection scheme. Most of the previous work concentrates on the channel selection algorithm since early channel acquisition algorithms are centralized and rely on a MSS to accomplish channel acquisition. The centralized schemes are neither scalable nor reliable. Recently, distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm...

Graph Coloring and Ant Colony Optimization based Sub-channel Allocation Algorithms for LTE-A HetNets c ©Richa Siddavaatam, 2012 Master of Applied Science Electrical and Computer Engineering Ryerson University LTE-Advanced is a promising technology which supports much higher peak rates, higher throughput and coverage, and lower latencies, resulting in a better user experience. For extended indoo...

This paper proposes a new resource allocation model which is based on data envelopment analysis (DEA) and concerns systems with several homogeneous units operating under supervision of a central unit. The previous studies in DEA literature deal with reallocating/allocating organizational resource to improve performance or maximize the total amount of outputs produced by individual units. In tho...

in dea to obtain an efficient representation in ccr andbcc models for each dmu only one linear plan would be solved; however,it is possible in centralized resource allocation (cra) to solve allthe dmus by one linear planning. in this paper, models of centralizedresource allocation in input-oriented and in dynamic case will be offeredand by using dynamic sbm, the representation of dmus in each t...

Cloud computing environment provisions the supply of computing resources on the basis of demand, as and when needed. It builds upon advances of virtualisation and distributed computing to support cost efficient usage of computing resources, emphasizing on resource scalability and on-demand services. It allows business outcomes to scale up and down their resources based on needs. Managing the cu...
