Optimal scaling has been well studied for Metropolis-Hastings (M-H) algorithms in continuous spaces, but a similar understanding has been lacking in discrete spaces. Recently, a family of locally balanced proposals (LBP) for discrete spaces…
A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) allows a reflection transmission path between a base station (BS) and user equipment (UE). In wireless localization, this reflection path aids in positioning accuracy, especially when the…

Load balancing across parallel servers is an important class of congestion control problems that arises in service systems. An effective load balancer relies heavily on accurate, real-time congestion information to make routing decisions.…
This paper addresses the motion control problem for mobile robots in obstacle-cluttered environments. The mobile robot has partial environment information only, and aims to move from an initial position to a target position without…
A common approach to localize a mobile robot is by measuring distances to points of known positions, called anchors. Locating a device from distance measurements is typically posed as a non-convex optimization problem, stemming from the…
Recent workload measurements in Google data centers provide an opportunity to challenge existing models and, more broadly, to enhance the understanding of dispatching policies in computing clusters. Through extensive data-driven…

Control and communication are often tightly coupled in motion planning of networked mobile robots, due to the fact that robotic motions will affect the overall communication quality, and the quality of service (QoS) of the communication…
We propose a linear time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) measurement model to improve \textit{distributed} estimation performance for localized target tracking. We design distributed filters over sparse (possibly large-scale) communication…
Coded caching techniques have received significant attention lately due to their provable gains in reducing the cost of data delivery in wireless networks. These gains, however, have only been demonstrated under the assumption of a free…
A correlated transmission and reflection (T&R) phase-shift model is proposed for passive lossless simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (STAR-RISs). A STAR-RIS-aided two-user downlink communication…
We are motivated by the need for impromptu (or as-you-go) deployment of multihop wireless networks, by human agents or robots; the agent moves along a line, makes wireless link quality measurements at regular intervals, and makes on-line…
In this letter we focus on designing self-organizing diffusion mobile adaptive networks where the individual agents are allowed to move in pursuit of an objective (target). The well-known Adapt-then-Combine (ATC) algorithm is already…
The dynamic response of power grids to small events or persistent stochastic disturbances influences their stable operation. Low-frequency inter-area oscillations are of particular concern due to insufficient damping. This paper studies the…
