Generalized Colonel Blotto Game
Aidin Ferdowsi, Anibal Sanjab, Walid Saad +1
Competitive resource allocation between adversarial decision makers arises in a wide spectrum of real-world applications such as in communication systems, cyber-physical systems se…
Managing Price Uncertainty in Prosumer-Centric Energy Trading: A Prospect-Theoretic Stackelberg Game Approach
Georges El Rahi, S. Rasoul Etesami, Walid Saad +2
In this paper, the problem of energy trading between smart grid prosumers, who can simultaneously consume and produce energy, and a grid power company is studied. The problem is fo…
Stochastic Coalitional Games for Cooperative Random Access in M2M Communications
Mehdi Naderi Soorki, Walid Saad, Mohammad Hossein Manshaei +1
In this paper, the problem of random access contention between machine type devices (MTDs) in the uplink of a wireless cellular network is studied. In particular, the possibility o…
A Colonel Blotto Game for Interdependence-Aware Cyber-Physical Systems Security in Smart Cities
Aidin Ferdowsi, Walid Saad, Behrouz Maham +1
Smart cities must integrate a number of interdependent cyber-physical systems that operate in a coordinated manner to improve the well-being of the city's residents. A cyber-physic…
Inter-Operator Resource Management for Millimeter Wave, Multi-Hop Backhaul Networks
Omid Semiari, Walid Saad, Mehdi Bennis +1
In this paper, a novel framework is proposed for optimizing the operation and performance of a large-scale, multi-hop millimeter wave (mmW) backhaul within a wireless small cell ne…
Smart Routing of Electric Vehicles for Load Balancing in Smart Grids
S. Rasoul Etesami, Walid Saad, Narayan Mandayam +1
Electric vehicles (EVs) are expected to be a major component of the smart grid. The rapid proliferation of EVs will introduce an unprecedented load on the existing electric grid du…
Prospect Theory for Enhanced Cyber-Physical Security of Drone Delivery Systems: A Network Interdiction Game
Anibal Sanjab, Walid Saad, Tamer Başar
The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as delivery systems of online goods is rapidly becoming a global norm, as corroborated by Amazon's "Prime Air" and Google's "Project Wing…
Reactive Power Compensation Game under Prospect-Theoretic Framing Effects
Yunpeng Wang, Walid Saad, Arif I. Sarwat +1
Reactive power compensation is an important challenge in current and future smart power systems. However, in the context of reactive power compensation, most existing studies assum…
Caching Meets Millimeter Wave Communications for Enhanced Mobility Management in 5G Networks
Omid Semiari, Walid Saad, Mehdi Bennis +1
One of the most promising approaches to overcome the uncertainty and dynamic channel variations of millimeter wave (mmW) communications is to deploy dual-mode base stations that in…
