Chromatic scheduling polytopes coming from the bandwidth allocation problem in point-to-multipoint radio access systems

Point-to-Multipoint systems are a kind of radio systems supplying wireless access to voice/data communication networks. Such systems have to be run using a certain frequency spectrum, which typically causes capacity problems. Hence it is, on the one hand, necessary to reuse frequencies but, on the o...
