Abstract:
Scheduling algorithms have been extensively studied in wireless network design.
We first present a comprehensive taxonomy of this research area, then a
stability-delay-complexity tradeoff for networks with non-saturated traffic,
and finally a utility-optimal random access protocol with no message
passing for networks with saturated traffic.

Mung Chiang is an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering, and an
Affiliated Faculty of Applied and Computational Mathematics and of Computer
Science, at Princeton University. He received the B.S. (Honors) in Electrical
Engineering and Mathematics, M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering
from Stanford University in 1999, 2000, and 2003, respectively, and was an
Assistant Professor at Princeton University 2003-2008. His research areas
include optimization, distributed control, and stochastic analysis of
communication networks, with applications to the Internet, wireless networks,
broadband access networks, and content distribution.
His awards include Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers
