User centric metrics for a realistic assessment of broadband services
Past broadband adoption initiatives underscored common wisdom: “We cannot manage what we cannot accurately measure”, “Trust but verify”. Self-reported Federal Communications Commission data has been notoriously unreliable or lacking granularity and that ...

Energy-Efficient Power Control: A Look at 5G Wireless Technologies [PDF]
This work develops power control algorithms for energy efficiency (EE) maximization (measured in bit/Joule) in wireless networks. Unlike previous related works, minimum-rate constraints are imposed and the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio takes a ...

User-Centric Android Flexible Permissions
Privacy in mobile apps is a fundamental aspect to be considered, particularly with regard to meeting end user expectations. Due to the rigidities of the Android permission model, desirable trade-offs are not allowed. End users are confined into a secondary role, having the only option of choosing between either privacy or functionalities.

User‐centric data communication service strategy for 5G vehicular networks
To solve the problems of unbalanced network loads, poor network throughput, and low user transmission rate in 5th generation (5G) vehicular networks, a user‐centric data communication service (UCDCS) strategy is proposed for 5G vehicular networks. First,
