Application of Asynchronous Weak Commitment Search in Autonomous Quality   of Service Provision in Cognitive Radio Networks
  This article presents a distributed solution to autonomous quality of service provision in cognitive radio networks. Specifically, cognitive STDMA and CDMA communication networks are studied. Based on asynchronous weak commitment search the task of QoS provision is distributed among different network nodes. Simulation results verify this scheme converges very fast to optimal solution, which makes it suitable for practical real time systems. This application of artificial intelligence in wireless and mobile communications can be used in home automation and networking, and vehicular technology. The generalizations and extensions of this approach can be used in Long Term Evolution Self Organizing Networks (LTE-SONs). In addition, it can pave the way for decentralized and autonomous QoS provision in capillary networks that reach end nodes at Internet of Things, where central management is either unavailable or not efficient.
