Overview

The Mathematics of Networks and Communications Department is within the Enabling Computing Technologies domain, which is part of Bell Labs Research, the research arm of Alcatel-Lucent. We are located at 600 Mountain Avenue, Murray Hill, NJ 07974, USA.

Department activities are motivated by theoretical frameworks for and practical solutions to multifaceted problems that arise in the design and management of communication networks, systems and services. Our current fundamental research includes stochastic networks, large-scale networks, in-network computation and large-scale data analysis. We also design mathematical, communication and statistical methods and algorithmic prototypes in support of products and services for Alcatel-Lucent. Owing to the large spectrum of potential applications of our work, our technical staff are perhaps atypically conversant in a variety of topics, ranging from cellular networks, mobility, packet and optical networks to services infrastructure. We are structured in three groups.

Mathematics of Networks and Complex Systems Research Group
Iraj Saniee

Mathematics of Networks and Complex Systems is focused on fundamentals of distributed and global optimization, stochastic and asymptotic analysis, autonomic resource allocation mechanisms, and stability and control of complex systems.
