Matching theory is a powerful tool to study the formation of dynamic and mutually beneficial
relations among different types of rational and selfish agents. It has been widely used to …

In this paper, we study the problem of cooperative interference management in an OFDMA
two-tier small cell network. In particular, we propose a novel approach for allowing the small …

Deployment of low-power low-cost small access points such as femtocell access points
(FAPs) constitute an attractive solution for improving the existing macrocell access …

Federated learning (FL) emerges as a promising paradigm to enable a federation of clients
to train a machine learning model in a privacy-preserving manner. Most existing works …

I became interested in partition function form games early in my academic career and, by
now, have a few publications on the topic. Such games are not new but it was often difficult …

Extensive deployment of heterogeneous small cells in cellular networks results in ultra-
dense small-cell networks (USNs). The USNs have been established as one of the vital …

Heterogeneous small-cell networks have been identified as key technological components
in accomplishing objectives of the fifth generation wireless communication system, in which …

In order to mitigate inter-femtocell interference (IFI) and utilize spectrum resource efficiently,
this paper proposes a dynamic clustering-based sub-band allocation scheme (DCCSA) …

Ultra-dense small cell networks (UD-SCNs) will be an integral part of next generation
network (NGN). How to deal with serious interference is one of the important challenges in a …

We propose distributed matching algorithms for an uplink communication network
comprised of multiple femtocell access points (FAPs), multiple wireless operators (WOs) …
