Resource-constrained and Resource-efficient Modern Cryptosystem Design
In the context of a system design, resource-constraints refer to severe restrictions on allowable resources, while resource-efficiency is the capability to achieve a desired performance and, at the same time, to reduce wasting resources. To design for low-cost platforms, these fundamental concepts …

Resource allocation and NFV placement in resource constrained MEC-enabled 5G-Networks
The fifth-generation (5G) of mobile communication networks are expected to support a large number of vertical industries requiring services with diverging requirements. To accommodate this, mobile networks are undergoing a significant transformation to enable a variety of services to coexist on the …

Context-Aware Resource Management
The demand for performance and resources that is placed on the system is dictated by the application alone in non-interactive environments, and by a combination of application and user interactions in interactive environments. Understanding user interaction can provide valuable information about …
