  Spectrum trading in virtualized multi-tenant 5G networks 

  Tsirakis, C.; López Aguilera, M. Elena; Matzoros, P.; Agapiou, George; Varoutas, D. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
  Conference report
  Open Access

  In this research work, we analyze the problem of spectrum trading in virtualized multi-tenant 5G networks using principles from matching theory. More specifically, we deal with the matching problem among the Mobile Network ...
• Heuristic methods in geographical routing protocols for VANETs 

  Urquiza Aguiar, Luis; Almeida, Daniel; Tripp Barba, Carolina; Aguilar Igartua, Mónica (Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2015)
  Conference report

  This paper proposes different local\hyph search heuristics to improve the performance of geographical routing protocols in VANET networks, which typically relies the selection of the next node only on the best candidate. ...
• Two way molecular communications 

  Kwack, J.W.; Yilmaz, Hüseyin Birkan; Farsad, Nariman; Chae, Chan-Byoung; Goldsmith, Andrea (Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2018)
  Conference report

  Mean waiting time in the M/H2/s queue: application to mobile communications Systems 

  Barceló Arroyo, Francisco; Paradells Aspas, Josep; Aguilar Igartua, Mónica (Wissenschaft & Technik, 1997)
  Conference lecture
  Open Access

  In this paper a procedure to approximately calculate the mean waiting time in the M/H2/s queue is presented. The approximation is heuristic although based in the intuitive symmetry between the deterministic and balanced ...
• The roll of Data Distribution Service in failure-aware SDN controllers 

  Llorens Carrodeguas, Alejandro; Cervelló Pastor, Cristina; Leyva Pupo, Irian; Navarro Ortiz, Jorge; López-Soler, Juan Manuel (Unión Científica Internacional de Radio (URSI), 2018)
  Conference report

  The necessity of a flexible, scalable, faster and programmable network to offer new services are challenging to telecommunication operators. These characteristics along with robustness and availability are essential in ...
• A latency-constrained framework for edge nodes placement optimization in 5G networks 

  Santoyo González, Alejandro; Cervelló Pastor, Cristina (Unión Científica Internacional de Radio (URSI), 2018)
  Conference report
  Restricted access - publisher's policy

  Latency is a main challenge for most 5G use cases, since mission critical environments are mostly delay sensitive. Edge Computing has become the main technological candidate to overcome this problem. However, under such ...
• A framework for placement and optimization of network functions in 5G
