Multiple-Time-Slot Multiple Access Binary Computation Offloading in the $K$-User Case

When multiple devices seek to offload computational tasks to their access point, the nature of the multiple access scheme plays a critical role in the system performance. For a system with heterogeneous tasks, we adopt a time-slotted signaling architecture in which different numbers of devices transmit in each slot, subject to individual power constraints. We consider the problem of jointly selecting the devices that will offload, along with …
