The policies are restricted to the class of coordinate-convex policies. Two kinds of structural properties of the optimal policies and their robustness with respect to changes of the feasibility region are investigated: 1) general properties not depending on the revenue ratio associated with the two classes of users and 2) more specific properties depending on such a ratio. The results allow one to narrow the search for the optimal policies to a suitable subset of the set of coordinate-convex policies. date: 2011 date_type: published publisher: IEEE pagerange: 466-470 event_title: INFOCOM, 2011 Proceedings IEEE id_number: 10.1109/INFCOM.2011.5935205 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-4244-9919-9 book_title: Proceedings IEEE of INFOCOM 2011 official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=5935205&isnumber=5934870 citation: Marchese, Mario and Cello, Marco and Gnecco, Giorgio and Sanguineti, Marcello Structural properties of optimal coordinate-convex policies for CAC with nonlinearly-constrained feasibility regions.
