In this paper, distributed convex optimization problem over non-directed dynamical networks is studied. Here, networked agents with single-integrator dynamics are supposed to rendezvous at a point that is the solution of a global convex…

We consider the problem of dynamically allocating tasks to multiple agents under time window constraints and task completion uncertainty. Our objective is to minimize the number of unsuccessful tasks at the end of the operation horizon. We…

We are given an equal number of mobile robotic agents, and distinct target locations. Each agent has simple integrator dynamics, a limited communication range, and knowledge of the position of every target. We address the problem of…

We consider a resource allocation problem involving a large number of agents with individual constraints subject to privacy, and a central operator whose objective is to optimize a global, possibly nonconvex, cost while satisfying the…

In this paper, we propose a distributed version of the Hungarian Method to solve the well known assignment problem. In the context of multi-robot applications, all robots cooperatively compute a common assignment that optimizes a given…

This paper considers a network of collaborating agents for local resource allocation subject to nonlinear model constraints. In many applications, it is required (or desirable) that the solution be anytime feasible in terms of satisfying…

Graph partition is a key component to achieve workload balance and reduce job completion time in parallel graph processing systems. Among the various partition strategies, edge partition has demonstrated more promising performance in…

Balanced partitioning is often a crucial first step in solving large-scale graph optimization problems, e.g., in some cases, a big graph can be chopped into pieces that fit on one machine to be processed independently before stitching the…

This paper studies the problem of allocating tasks from different customers to vehicles in mobility platforms, which are used for applications like food and package delivery, ridesharing, and mobile sensing. A mobility platform should…

Analyzing large graph data is an essential part of many modern applications, such as social networks. Due to its large computational complexity, distributed processing is frequently employed. This requires graph data to be divided across…

In order to meet the performance/privacy requirements of future data-intensive mobile applications, e.g., self-driving cars, mobile data analytics, and AR/VR, service providers are expected to draw on shared storage/computation/connectivity…

This paper investigates the online motion coordination problem for a group of mobile robots moving in a shared workspace. Based on the realistic assumptions that each robot is subject to both velocity and input constraints and can have only…

This paper investigates the effect of network topology on the fair allocation of network resources among a set of agents, an all-important issue for the efficiency of transportation networks all around us. We analyse a generic mechanism…

Motivated by recent development in networking and parallel data-processing, we consider a distributed and localized finite-sum (or fixed-sum) allocation technique to solve resource-constrained convex optimization problems over multi-agent…

We propose a distributed algorithm for multiagent systems that aim to optimize a common objective when agents differ in their estimates of the objective-relevant state of the environment. Each agent keeps an estimate of the environment and…

In this paper, we focus on solving a distributed convex optimization problem in a network, where each agent has its own convex cost function and the goal is to minimize the sum of the agents' cost functions while obeying the network…

The classic fair division problems assume the resources to be allocated are either divisible or indivisible, or contain a mixture of both, but the agents always have a predetermined and uncontroversial agreement on the (in)divisibility of…

Our goal is to design distributed coordination strategies that enable agents to achieve global performance guarantees while minimizing the energy cost of their actions with an emphasis on feasibility for real-time implementation. As a…

Random projection algorithm is an iterative gradient method with random projections. Such an algorithm is of interest for constrained optimization when the constraint set is not known in advance or the projection operation on the whole…
