Delay-Based Network Utility MaximizationÂ

Abstract It is well known that max-weight policies based on a queue backlog index can be used to stabilize stochastic networks, and that similar stability results hold if a delay index is used. Using Lyapunov Optimization, we extend this analysis to design a utility maximizing algorithm that uses explicit delay information from the head-of-line packet […]


Exploiting Bluetooth on Android Mobile Devices for Home Security Application

Abstract Mobile devices have been integrated into our everyday life. Consequently, home automation and security are becoming increasingly prominent features on mobile devices. In this paper, we have developed a security system that interfaces with an Android mobile device. The mobile device and security system communicate via Bluetooth because a short-range-only communications system was desired. […]
