Because there is no central coordinator to coordinate the BSs (such as an ASN gateway), each BS handles both its cell-edge users and cell-interior users; that is, an upper RRC and a lower RRC coexist at each BS.
Moreover, this kind of self-organized system leverages the feedback and coordination by the central coordinator in order to achieve high efficiency.
PCF is a centralized mechanism which uses a central coordinator.
To address these limits of centralized control, this paper presents a coordinated, distributed algorithm based on distributed, local controllers and a central coordinator for exchanging summarized global state information.
In [21], authors have devised an optimal sensing order for the CRN with cooperative centralized sensing, where sensing and access decisions are sequentially made by the central coordinator.
In centralized networks, the timing, channel and data information are available at the central coordinator which can then share such information with selected users to enable concurrent or cooperative transmissions.
A central coordinator is responsible for allocating capacities to product lines.
Unlike existing distributed predictive control, which requires a pre-organized optimizing sequence, this new approach requires no central coordinator.
When these distributions are unknown to the central coordinator and capacity is scarce, the managers misrepresent their forecasts.
Huber, A. et al. Characterization of the rapamycin-sensitive phosphoproteome reveals that Sch9 is a central coordinator of protein synthesis.
This work assumes that the central coordinator can ask the managers to report multiple statistics (mean and variance, for example) about their respective distributions.
