Max-Min Fair Optimization Models in Network Design
(2012) Eleventh INFORMS Telecommunications Conference- Abstract
- Max-min fairness (MMF) is a general objective of multi-criteria optimization with important and natural
applications in communication network design. The notion of MMF and optimization models involving MMF
seem not to be commonly known to network designers and therefore they are not used to an extent they deserve.
Moreover, the MMF approaches are sometimes “reinvented”, in some cases not correctly.
The presentation discusses basic notions related to MMF, and surveys general algorithms for resolving
optimization problems with an MMF objective, illustrated by examples from network design. The presentation
may help network designers to more commonly apply MMF objectives in their network... (More) - Max-min fairness (MMF) is a general objective of multi-criteria optimization with important and natural
