Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to formally describe new optimization models for telecommunication networks with distributed processing. Modern distributed networks put more focus on the processing of information and less on the actual transportation of data than we are traditionally used to in telecommunications. This paper introduces new approaches for modelling decision support at operational, tactical and strategic levels. One of the main advantages of the technological framework we are working within is its inherent flexibility, which enables us to dynamically plan and consider uncertainty when decisions are made. When we present the models, emphasis is placed on the modelling discussions around the shift of focus towards processing, the new technological aspects, and how to utilize flexibility to cope with uncertainty.
