Abstract A Self-Organizing Network (SON) is a compilation of functions (or actions) for the automatic design of communication nodes for optimized performance. Moreover, Self-Organizing Networks are computerized and optimized versions of cellular networks. Capital expenditure, also called CAPEX, is the cost of doing business to create a future advantage. Operational expenditure (OPEX) is the money that a business spends to transform stock into throughput. The self - organization is considered to be a chief necessity in mobile operations and networks essentially due to potential savings made in CAPEX and OPEX. Game Theory (GT) is a technique of studying tactical decision-making. Technically, it is the study of arithmetical models of conflicts and collaboration between intelligent rational decision makers. (Thomas & Maurice, 2011). Therefore, the application of GT to wireless systems, the self-organizing problems of networks can be solved efficiently. Specifically, those problems that are more complicated and for which one cannot establish a systematic boundary by logic can be solved using SON. Most applications of Game Theory have been engaged in the fields of business, microeconomics management, decision-making and economics and finance in its early days (Aumann & Hart, 1992). Consequently, the concept of applying GT to WSN has grown in popularity among members of the academic world. Since the initial applications of Game Theory to Wireless Networks, it has become a critical
The last best practice evaluated is a new optimization and management services process that monitors, updates and implements third-generation (3G) data services. The article mentions two very important influences in the wireless cellular network industry are "the increasing complexity of wireless network services and the increasing customer demands and competitive pressures upon cellular service providers." (Buvaneswari, Ravishankar, Graybeal, Haner & Rittenhouse, 2004) This new process will not only increase cellular network quality, speed and flexibility but it will also allow these companies to "monitor, diagnose, and optimize their increasingly complex networks." (Buvaneswari, et al., 2004) All five best practices have strengths and weaknesses covered further on in the paper.
The organization will reap in high sales and production and possible lower costs in employee wages from less workload. The network system will work at a faster pace and if using the voice-over IP system, communication and management costs can be reduced.
Riordan Manufacturing is in need of a new network, this plan will develop a network that will benefit the business, the employees and the customers in a manner that will provide all of them with a smooth operating experience as well as to future proof the entire network. The Network will handle all incoming and outgoing traffic for both the employees on the intranet, as well as the customers on the external internet web site. Quality of Service (QoS) will be implemented to assist in data tracking for use of the bandwidth to determine and plan how much bandwidth is needed and to determine where congestion

This will provide the company with the chance to more efficiently manage its activities (Mangiaracina et al, 2011). At present, the company does not have any key plans in place to provide it with help with managing its applications. It is however critical for the company’s management to ensure that it clearly understands the importance of putting in places a wireless technology. This is due to the fact that the company will have a better chance to track its inventory while at the same time ensure that it is able to remotely control all of its 10 new stores (Rekik et al, 2009).

Small businesses rely on network connectivity for communications. With the advancement in Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP), many businesses are using the internet to save on phone costs. Additionally, it is common for a business to have an in-house communications system. Take some installations in the Air Force for example; they use an Instant Messaging (IM) service for member-member contact. Many times, it is easier to reach
Johnson. The first section of the proposal will outline the needs analysis requirements of the network. We will analysis the needs and requirements of Mr. Johnson and his employees and provide recommendations on various applications that will help fulfill those needs. A high-speed data rate selected from the ISP will help the performance of the applications needed in the small business network. After determining the needs analysis, we will provide a logical network diagram that will display the network based on the needs analysis requirements. It will be explained how each hardware and network wired will be connected to each other in the room forming an office
The Athlete’s Shack (TAS) is a company with ten stores in their chain of sporting goods stores. Due to increased popularity the business is growing and in need of a
Mr. Green has decided to implement a network within his small business. This is a good choice in moving forward with his growing operations and size. He has several questions, and already has a few opinions about how he will go about this implementation, including both the software and hardware involved. My job as a private computer consultant will be to clarify some of the common misconceptions made by Mr. Green, and ensure that his network implementation will allow him to reach the goals he has as a small business owner.
According to Morgan, an organization that acts like a holographic brain will be able to “self-organize and regenerate itself on a continuous basis” (Morgan, 100). In order to keep its constituents and employees aware of crime that occurs at each college the LACCD must processes the frequency of crime, communicate the information to all stakeholders, and makes determine how much security it should encompass in every college. It must also publicize the information in the institutions homepage in order to follow federal regulations and avoid penalties.

Game theory cannot always predict reliable outcomes for real-life situations as it is more an
I was drawn into Game Theory because of its wide range of applications across academic disciplines like economics, biology, and history as well as in real life situations like bargaining and getting loans. In my independent proposal and my first blog post, I have established exploring the real world applications of Game Theory as one of my major goals this semester. Since the start of September, I’ve been watching Game Theory courses on Yale Open Courseware and doing weekly problem sets accompanying the lectures. The diverse examples Professor Polak used to illustrate complex concepts confirmed my previous beliefs that Game Theory is not an isolated and purely theoretical subject, but is developed to answer human curiosities and our needs. These lectures not only taught me to draw payoff matrices and decision tree to figure out best responses to hypothetical situation but also to see the similarities in life situations through the perspectives of simplistic mathematic models. For example, the generalized “prisoner’s dilemma” model that involves two players and two strategies can be used to explain the necessity of roommate contract, procrastination in group projects, or grades inflation in the
We are able to begin to develop abilities in self-directed-studying during our first-year in the college, to be an effective student. We will be spending a considerable time getting information and learning the continuous creation of new information, new skills due to the fast pace of change in culture and technology, and an access to info. Much with this learning will happen at our own initiative. We as a person will have the main responsibility for implementing, planning, and even appraising our learning effort. This what we should understand as self-directed learning.
