Framework for Resource Allocation in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks Using Game Theory

This is a framework for resource allocation in a heterogeneous system composed of various access networks, for instance Third Generation wireless networks (3G) and WLAN, in the presence of multimedia traffic, namely voice and data. Our aim is to present a game theoretical modeling of routing and load-balancing strategies along with admission control and pricing in cooperative and non-cooperative settings.
