Resource allocation techniques have recently appeared as a widely recognized feature in LTE networks. Most of existing approaches in resource allocation focus on maximizing network’s utility functions. The great potential of utility function in improving resource allocation and enhancing fairness and mean opinion score (MOS) indexes has attracted large efforts over the last few years. In this p...

in this paper, the energy efficient resource allocation in noma-based heterogeneous cellular network(hcn) systems is investigated. since energy consumption and its limitations is one of the important challenges in fifth generation of cellular networks (5g), we propose a resource allocation problem which allocates power and subcarriers to multiple users to achieve the best system energy efficien...

Assignment model is a powerful operations research techniques that can be used to solve assignment or allocation problem. This study applies the assignment model to the course allocation problem in Nigeria tertiary institution in order to maximize lecturers’ effectiveness. A well-structured questionnaire was used to obtain data from lecturers and solved with Hungarian method. The study revealed...

an equitable risk allocation between contracting parties plays a vital role in enhancing the performance of the project. this research presents a new quantitative risk allocation approach by integrating fuzzy logic and bargaining game theory. owing to the imprecise and uncertain nature of players’ payoffs at different risk allocation strategies, fuzzy logic is implemented to determine the value...

location-allocation is a combinatorial optimization problem, and is defined as non deterministic polynomial hard (np) hard optimization. therefore, solution of such a problem should be shifted from exact to heuristic or meta heuristic due to the complexity of the problem. locating medical centers and allocating injuries of an earthquake to them has high importance in earthquake disaster managem...
