The smart grid is envisioned to significantly enhance the efficiency of energy consumption, by utilizing two-way communication channels between consumers and operators. For example, operators can opportunistically leverage the delay tolerance of energy demands in order to balance the energy load over time, and hence, reduce the total operational cost. This opportunity, however, comes with security...
In this paper, we aim to obtain the optimal delay-power tradeoff and the corresponding optimal scheduling policy for arbitrary i.i.d. arrival process and adaptive transmissions. The number of backlogged packets at the transmitter is known to a scheduler, who has to determine how many backlogged packets to transmit during each time slot. The power consumption is assumed to be convex in transmission...
Social networking platforms are responsible for the discussion and formation of opinions in diverse areas including, but not limited to, political discourse, market trends, news and social movements. Often, these opinions are of a competing nature, e.g., radical vs. peaceful ideology, one technology vs. another. We study the battle of such competing opinions over evolving social networks.
