Cost-efficient deployment of multi-hop wireless networks over disaster areas using multi-objective meta-heuristics
(2017-07)
Nowadays there is a global concern with the growing frequency and magnitude of natural disasters, many of them associated with climate change at a global scale. When tackled during a stringent economic era, the allocation ...
On the Interplay between Scheduling Interval and Beamwidth Selection for Low-Latency and Reliable V2V mmWave Communications
(2017)
The interest in mmWave communications has risen sharply in the last years motivated by their widespread con- sideration as a technological solution capable of dealing with the stringent rate requirements currently demanded ...
An Analysis of Coalition-Competition Pricing Strategies for Multi-Operator Mobile Traffic Offloading using Bi-objective Heuristics
(2017)
In a competitive market relationships between telecommuni- cations operators serving simultaneously over a certain geographical area are diverse and motivated by very different business strategies and goals. Such relationships ...
Cost-efficient Selective Network Caching in Large-Area Vehicular Networks using Multi-objective Heuristics
(2017)
In the last decade the interest around network caching tech- niques has augmented notably for alleviating the ever-growing demand of resources by end users in mobile networks. This gained momentum stems from the fact that ...
Millimeter Wave V2V Communications: Distributed Association and Beam Alignment
(2017)
Recently millimeter-wave bands have been postulated as a means to accommodate the foreseen extreme bandwidth demands in vehicular communications, which result from the dissemination of sensory data to nearby vehicles for ...
Nature-inspired heuristics for the multiple-vehicle selective pickup and delivery problem under maximum profit and incentive fairness criteria
(2017)
This work focuses on wide-scale freight transportation logistics motivated by the sharp increase of on-line shopping stores and the upsurge of Internet as the most frequently utilized selling channel during the last decade. ...
