Revenue-based spectrum management via Markov decision process

Creator:

Zhu, Pingan

Abstract:

We consider the problem of wireless spectrum management in cognitive wireless networks that maximizes the revenue for a spectrum operator. Specifically, we study the problem on how a wireless spectrum operator can optimally allocate its limited spectrum to various classes users/devices who pay differently for their spectrum per unit time....

Listing as a Potential Connection between Sets of Outcomes and Counting Processes

Creator:

Erickson, Sarah A.

Abstract:

Counting problems are rich in opportunities for students to make meaningful mathematical connections and develop non-algorithmic thinking; their accessible nature and applications to computer science make counting problems a valuable part of mathematics curricula. However, students struggle in various ways with counting, and while previous studies have indicated that listing...

Computing entropy for Z²-actions

Creator:

Pierce, Larry A.

Abstract:

For a certain class of Z²-actions, we provide a proof of a conjecture that the ratio of the Perron eigenvalues of the transfer matrices of the free boundary restrictions converge to the entropy of that action. Also, a novel method for computing the entropy of Z²-actions is conjectured.
