报告简介:
    In this presentation, the speaker will briefly introduce the major aspects of NSF CREST Research Center at TSU in the research of energy efficient wireless sensor networks, the unban transportation environmental networks and distributed computational networks, and in the education and the technology transform components. The presentation will also include Center’s management, and its concentration on the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education programs, as well as its measurement of success. As a showcase of research accomplishments, the speaker will present two recent mathematical research results. One is in bandwidth adaptation of wireless networks by using network reversible process property. This research verifies the mathematical product-form solution of whole wireless network and further reveals the importance of single-cell research in wireless networks. Another research is in call admission control based billing strategies by using the method of Markov decision process. This research verifies the optimal admission threshold policy for new generated data and then provides a novel method in resolving dynamic optimal problems in wireless networks. As a potential collaboration with related scholars, the speaker will discuss a few challenging problems in the areas which may need to be paid attention in the near future. Finally, the speaker will present on how the current research be linked to the short range wireless communications for connected vehicle to vehicle networks.
