Abstract:This work extends previous results on games with coupled constraints in optical links to general multi-link topologies. Nash equilibria of such games can be computed based on recent extension of duality to a game theoretical framework. Unlike capacity constraints in flow control, coupled constraints in optical networks are propagated along links. This introduces additional complications for analysis. Specifically, convexity of the propagated constraints is no longer automatically ensured. We show that convexit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
