In this work we investigate the limits on information-transmission in the finite-lifetime channel. We derive an upper bound for the information that can be transmitted, and we introduce an optimum acausal scheme for power-allocation. Furthermore, we introduce more practical but nevertheless efficient schemes for allocating power, and we compare their performance with the optimum scheme in a veh...

The SweGrid Accounting System (SGAS) allocates capacity in collaborative Grid environments by coordinating enforcement of Grid-wide usage limits as a means to offer usage guarantees and prevent overuse. SGAS employs a credit-based allocation model where Grid capacity is granted to projects via Grid-wide quota allowances that can be spent across the Grid resources. The resources collectively enf...

One of the major issues in the proposed concepts-of-operations for NEXTGEN is the equitable allocation of available National Airspace System (NAS) resources when demand is in excess of the capacity of the resource. NAS resources include airport and airspace slots allocated to flights from different airlines, carrying passengers and cargo from different geographic areas, affecting local air and ...

A new method is presented for evaluating the performance of a nonlinear control allocation system within linear loop. To that end, worst-case gain analysis problem formulated can be readily solved by means well-established methods from robustness using integral quadratic constraints (IQCs). It exploits fact systems are in general memoryless mappings bounded IQCs. data-driven approach used to fi...

Resource allocation optimization is a typical cloud project scheduling problem: a problem that limits a cloud system’s ability to execute and deliver a project as originally planned. The entropy, as a measure of the degree of disorder in a system, is an indicator of a system’s tendency to progress out of order and into a chaotic condition, and it can thus serve to measure a cloud system’s relia...

Advances in sensors and avionics computation power suggest real-time structural load measurements could be used in flight control systems for improved safety and performance. A convention transport flight control system determines the moments necessary to meet the pilot’s command, while rejecting disturbances and maintaining stability of the aircraft. Control allocation is the problem of conver...

This paper presents a new physical-flow-based mechanism for allocating the reactive power support requirements provided by the generators in multitransaction networks. The allocatable reactive support requirements are defined with respect to the support required for the network with no transactions in place. The requirements in the presence of the proposed transactions are formulated as the sum...

Power allocation to satisfy user demands in the presence of large number of interferers in a multicellular network is a challenging task. Further, the power to be allocated depends upon the system architecture, for example upon components like coding, modulation, transmit precoder, rate allocation algorithms, available knowledge of the interfering channels, etc. This calls for an algorithm via ...
