      abstract = {This book presents the design of delay-efficient packet  schedulers for heterogeneous M2M uplink traffic classified  into several classes, based on packet delay requirements,  payload size, arrival process, etc. Specifically, the  authors use tools from queuing theory to determine the  delay-optimal scheduling policy. The proposed packet  schedulers are designed for a generic M2M architecture and  thus equally applicable to any M2M application.  Additionally, due to their low implementation complexity  and excellent delay-performance, they authors show how they  are also well-suited for practical M2M systems. The book  pertains primarily to real-time process scheduler experts  in industry/academia and graduate students whose research  deals with designing Quality-of-Service-aware packet  schedulers for M2M packet schedulers over existing and  future cellular infrastructure. Presents queuing theoretic  analysis and optimization techniques used to design  proposed packet scheduling strategies; Provides utility  functions to precisely model diverse delay requirements,  which lends itself to formulation of utility-maximization  problems for determining the delay- or utility-optimal  packet scheduler; Includes detail on low implementation  complexity of the proposed scheduler by using iterative and  distributed optimization techniques.},
