Coordination Models for Dynamic Resource Allocation

A Bi-level Formulation for Centralized Resource Allocation DEA Models

In this paper, the common centralized DEA models are extended to the bi-level centralized resource allocation (CRA) models based on revenue efficiency. Based on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, the bi-level CRA model is reduced to a one-level mathematical program subject to complementarity constraints (MPCC). A recurrent neural network is developed for solving this one-level mathematica...

Dynamic Resource Allocation Games

In resource allocation games, selfish players share resources that are needed in order to fulfill their objectives. The cost of using a resource depends on the load on it. In the traditional setting, the players make their choices concurrently and in one-shot. That is, a strategy for a player is a subset of the resources. We introduce and study dynamic resource allocation games. In this setting...

Exploiting Dynamic Resource Allocation

In recent years ad-hoc parallel data processing has emerged to be one of the killer applications for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) clouds. Major Cloud computing companies have started to integrate frameworks for parallel data processing in their product portfolio, making it easy for customers to access these services and to deploy their programs. However, the processing frameworks which ar...

Dynamic Resource Allocation

Computer systems are subject to continuously increasing performance demands. However, energy consumption has become a critical issue, both for high-end large-scale parallel systems [12], as well as for portable devices [34]. In other words, more work needs to be done in less time, preferably with the same or smaller energy budget. Future performance and efficiency goals of computer systems can ...

Optimizing Dynamic Resource Allocation

We present a formulation, solution method, and program acceleration techniques for two dynamic control scenarios, both with the common goal of optimizing resource allocations. These approaches allocate resources in a non-myopic way, accounting for long-term impacts of current control decisions via nominal belief-state optimization (NBO). In both scenarios, the solution techniques are paralleliz...
