Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Using Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis
Advances in network management and switching technologies make dynamic bandwidth allocation of logical networks built on top of a physical network possible. Previous proposed dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithms are based on simplified network model. The analytical model is valid only under restrictive assumptions. Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis, a technique which estimates the gradient...
متن کاملMulti-intersection traffic light control using infinitesimal perturbation analysis
We address the traffic light control problem for multiple intersections in tandem by viewing it as a stochastic hybrid system and developing a Stochastic Flow Model (SFM) for it. Using Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis (IPA), we derive on-line gradient estimates of a cost metric with respect to the controllable green and red cycle lengths. The IPA estimators obtained require counting traffic ...
متن کاملAugmented infinitesimal perturbation analysis: An alternate explanation
Augmented infinitesimalperturbation analysis (APA) was introduced by GaJvoronski [ 1991] to increase the purview of the theory of Infinitesimal Perturbation Analysis (IPA). In reference [Gaivoronski 1991] it is shown that an unbiased estimate for the gradient of a class of performance measures of DEDS represented by generalized semi-Markov processes (GSMPs) (cf. [Glynn 1989] can be expressed as...
متن کاملTowards Personalized Cancer Therapy Using Delta-Reachability Analysis
Recent clinical studies suggest that the efficacy of hormone therapy for prostate cancer depends on the characteristics of individual patients. In this paper, we develop a computational framework for identifying patient-specific androgen ablation therapy schedules for postponing the potential cancer relapse. We model the population dynamics of heterogeneous prostate cancer cells in response to ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Hip Joint Dose in Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy: A Dosimetric Comparison of Treatment Plans
Background and purpose: Radiation therapy as a part of cancer treatment is used in almost 50-60% of involved cases. In prostate cancer radiation therapy, a large volume of pelvis is irradiated, so, it is necessary to preserve sensitive organs around the treatment area, especially rectum and bladder. In this study, some dosimetric parameters such as minimum dose (Dmin), maximum dose (Dmax), mean...
