Overview
Presents queuing theoretic analysis and optimization techniques used to design proposed packet scheduling strategies
Provides utility functions to precisely model diverse delay requirements, which lends itself to formulation of utility-maximization problems for determining the delay- or utility-optimal packet scheduler
Includes detail on low implementation complexity of the proposed scheduler by using iterative and distributed optimization techniques
