The study of optimal properties centralized dynamic-time-division-duplex (D-TDD) employed at a wireless network consisting multiple nodes is highly challenging and partially understood problem in the literature. In this paper, we develop an D-TDD scheme for comprised K full-duplex impaired by self-interference additive white Gaussian noise. As special case, also propose when part or all are hal...

Increased penetration of wind energy will make electricity market prices more volatile. As a result, participants bear increased financial risks, which impact investment decisions and in turn, makes it harder to achieve sustainable goals. remedy, this paper, we propose an insurance that complements any wholesale design. Our mechanism can be run by suitable entity such as independent system oper...

The importance of parallel programming is increasing year after year since the power wall popularized multi-core processors, and with them, shared memory parallel programming models. In particular, task-based programming models, like the standard OpenMP 4.0, have become more and more important. They allow describing a set of data dependences per task that the runtime uses to order the execution...

Existing formal models of social order have difficulty providing convincing accounts of stable cooperation within societies because they do not analyze the full range of institutional forms that are available for large collectivities. This paper presents a new model of cooperation within societies, based upon a nested hierarchies of groups. The problem of maintaining cooperation is viewed as is...
