Delay Minimization in Wireless Networks

Associate Professor Sennur Ulukus (ECE/ISR) is principal investigator for “Delay Minimization in Wireless Networks.” The grant will provide $250,000 in funding over three years. This project aims to develop a fundamental understanding for the issue of delay in networks, and design transmission methods and scheduling algorithms to minimize delay in network communications. It combines techniques from information theory, network theory, queueing theory and optimization theory.
