Abstract:Ideally, networks should be designed to accommodate a variety of different traffic types, while at the same time maximizing its efficiency and utility. Network utility maximization (NUM) serves as an effective approach for solving the problem of network resource allocation (NRA) in network analysis and design. In existing literature, the NUM model has been used to achieve optimal network resource allocation such that the network utility is maximized. This is important, since network resources are at premium wi… 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.
