With the utility-maximization mechanism, MDU scheduling enables the network to achieve the right balance between capacity enlargement and QoS guarantees, according to the channel conditions and the level of network congestion. The novel stability analysis can be applied for stationary systems and a much wider range of scheduling algorithms compared to the existing related work. It will facilitate the design of cross-layer scheduling algorithms and QoS provisioning solutions for advanced wireless broadband networks. \u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"ECE Professor Ye (Geoffrey) Li has been chosen as the winner of the 2010 Stephen O.
