A Unified Utility Framwork for Applications in Heterogeneous Wireless Environment

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper studies the adaptable capability of applications in mobile networks in the context of the optimizing the network resource usage. Based on a thorough analysis of applications’ adaptability, a unified utility framework is proposed to describe the resource requirement of applications and their adaptability. Utility functions of different type of applications are discussed under the utility framework. Examples for how to use the framework are also given. Simulation results show that the proposed utility framework can be used for optimizing network resources and can therefore satisfy the needs of more applications.
