  • Resource management in wireless networks
    • Incorporation of the perspectives of multiple stakeholders, such as the infrastructure and service providers and the users of the services or technologies
    • Elicitation and consideration of the preferences of the participants of the wireless network
  • Mathematical methods for optimizing resource allocation (communication, sensing, computing, and caching resources) in large networks of autonomous nodes
    • Application of cooperative game theory such as matching and assignment games
    • Combining methods from online machine learning, such as multi-armed bandits, and concepts from cooperative game theory to solve optimization problems in a decentralized manner
