Utility Optimal Scheduling in Energy Harvesting Networks
Longbo Huang, Michael J. Neely
In this paper, we show how to achieve close-to-optimal utility performance in energy harvesting networks with only finite capacity energy storage devices. In these networks, nodes…
Utility Optimal Scheduling in Processing Networks
Longbo Huang, Michael J. Neely
We consider the problem of utility optimal scheduling in general \emph{processing networks} with random arrivals and network conditions. These are generalizations of traditional da…
LIFO-Backpressure Achieves Near Optimal Utility-Delay Tradeoff
Longbo Huang, Scott Moeller, Michael J. Neely +1
There has been considerable recent work developing a new stochastic network utility maximization framework using Backpressure algorithms, also known as MaxWeight. A key open proble…
Max-Weight Achieves the Exact Utility-Delay Tradeoff Under Markov Dynamics
Longbo Huang, Michael J. Neely
In this paper, we show that the Quadratic Lyapunov function based Algorithm (QLA, also known as MaxWeight or Backpressure) achieves an exact utility-delay tradeoff…
Dynamic Product Assembly and Inventory Control for Maximum Profit
Michael J. Neely, Longbo Huang
We consider a manufacturing plant that purchases raw materials for product assembly and then sells the final products to customers. There are M types of raw materials and K types o…
