Towards Effective Resource Procurement in MEC: a Resource Re-selling Framework
Marie Siew, Shikhar Sharma, Kun Guo +4
On-demand and resource reservation pricing models have been widely used in cloud computing, catering to different user requirements. Nevertheless, in Multi-Access Edge Computing (M…
Let's Share VMs: Optimal Placement and Pricing across Base Stations in MEC Systems
Marie Siew, Kun Guo, Desmond Cai +2
In mobile edge computing (MEC) systems, users offload computationally intensive tasks to edge servers at base stations. However, with unequal demand across the network, there might…
Understanding the Inefficiency of Security-Constrained Economic Dispatch
Mohammad H. Hajiesmaili, Desmond Cai, Enrique Mallada
The security-constrained economic dispatch (SCED) problem tries to maintain the reliability of a power network by ensuring that a single failure does not lead to a global outage. T…
On the Role of a Market Maker in Networked Cournot Competition
Desmond Cai, Subhonmesh Bose, Adam Wierman
We study Cournot competition among firms in a networked marketplace that is centrally managed by a market maker. In particular, we study a situation in which a market maker facilit…
On the Inefficiency of Forward Markets in Leader-Follower Competition
Desmond Cai, Anish Agarwal, Adam Wierman
Motivated by electricity markets, this paper studies the impact of forward contracting in situations where firms have capacity constraints and heterogeneous production lead times.…
Distributed optimization decomposition for joint economic dispatch and frequency regulation
Desmond Cai, Enrique Mallada, Adam Wierman
Economic dispatch and frequency regulation are typically viewed as fundamentally different problems in power systems and, hence, are typically studied separately. In this paper, we…
The Role of a Market Maker in Networked Cournot Competition
Subhonmesh Bose, Desmond Cai, Steven Low +1
We study the role of a market maker (or market operator) in a transmission constrained electricity market. We model the market as a one-shot networked Cournot competition where gen…
