Abstract :
We address the problem of dynamically assigning the time-slots of a transmission frame to the various classes of transmitters of a packet radio network. We assume that packets are transmitted in a fixed-length frame and employ a discrete optimization scheme to construct the frame slot assignments in order to minimize the mean packet delay. Several simulation results are also included
