U.S.-Greece Cooperative Research: High-Speed Integrated Services Communication Networks

这个为期两年的奖项将支持麻省理工学院的John Tsitsiklis和 克里特大学的Costas Courcoubetis和Manolis Katevenis教授以及 希腊研究和技术基金会（FORTH）。 的 合作将集中在高速综合业务通信网络的性能分析，拥塞控制和定价方面。 PI还将与 雅典国立技术大学Psaraftis教授介绍船舶航线 在不确定性下。 PI带来了近似动态开发的协作专业知识 编程方法，希腊同行带来了来自 他们广泛参与ATM网络定价方面的尖端项目， ATM交换机的设计 研究的目的是开发干净和有见地的 制定这一领域的关键问题，并着手进行分析或 计算解

This two-year award will support a collaboration between John Tsitsiklis at MIT and Professors Costas Courcoubetis and Manolis Katevenis of the University of Crete and the Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH) in Greece. The collaboration will focus on performance analysis, congestion control, and pricing in high- speed integrated services communication networks. The PI will also collaborate with Professor Psaraftis of the National Technical University of Athens on vessel routing under uncertainty. The PI brings to the collaboration expertise in the development of approximate dynamic programming methods, and the Greek counterparts bring methodological expertise from their extensive involvement in cutting edge projects in pricing in ATM networks and design of ATM switches. The objective of the research is to develop clean and insightful formulations of key problems in this area and to proceed with an analytic or computational solution.
