We study the problem of managing handoffs (HOs) in user-centric cell-free massive MIMO (UC-mMIMO) networks. Motivated by the importance of controlling the number of HOs and by the correlation between efficient HO decisions and the temporal…

Modern networked systems are increasingly reconfigurable, enabling demand-aware infrastructures whose resources can be adjusted according to the workload they currently serve. Such dynamic adjustments can be exploited to improve network…

The paper considers a class of multi-agent Markov decision processes (MDPs), in which the network agents respond differently (as manifested by the instantaneous one-stage random costs) to a global controlled state and the control actions of…

Distributed multi-task adaptive strategies are useful to estimate multiple parameter vectors simultaneously in a collaborative manner. The existed distributed multi-task strategies use diffusion mode of cooperation in which during…

This paper investigates goal-oriented communication for remote estimation of multiple Markov sources in resource-constrained networks. An agent decides the updating times of the sources and transmits the packet to a remote destination over…

Robots operating in real-world environments must reason about possible outcomes of stochastic actions and make decisions based on partial observations of the true world state. A major challenge for making accurate and robust action…

We propose a distributed planning method with asynchronous execution for multi-agent pickup and delivery (MAPD) problems for environments with occasional delays in agents' activities and flexible endpoints. MAPD is a crucial problem…

Managing announced task completion times is a fundamental control problem in project management. While extensive research exists on estimating task durations and task scheduling, the problem of when and how to update completion times…

We consider a wireless uplink network consisting of multiple end devices and an access point (AP). Each device monitors a physical process with stochastic arrival of status updates and sends these updates to the AP over a shared channel.…

Network routing is a distributed decision problem which naturally admits numerical performance measures, such as the average time for a packet to travel from source to destination. OLPOMDP, a policy-gradient reinforcement learning…

This paper presents a distributed optimization scheme over a network of agents in the presence of cost uncertainties and over switching communication topologies. Inspired by recent advances in distributed convex optimization, we propose a…

We consider a multi-source relaying system where independent sources randomly generate status update packets which are sent to the destination with the aid of a relay through unreliable links. We develop transmission scheduling policies to…

In several smart city applications, multiple resources must be allocated among competing agents that are coupled through such shared resources and are constrained --- either through limitations of communication infrastructure or privacy…

Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide a rich framework for sequential decision-making under uncertainty in stochastic domains. However, solving a POMDP is often intractable except for small problems due to their…

This paper considers the problem of sensory data scheduling of multiple processes. There are $n$ independent linear time-invariant processes and a remote estimator monitoring all the processes. Each process is measured by a sensor, which…

In this paper, we consider a multiuser uplink status update system, where a monitor aims to timely collect randomly generated status updates from multiple end nodes through a shared wireless channel. We adopt the recently proposed metric,…

This paper considers an Industrial Internet of Thing (IIoT) system with a source monitoring a dynamic process with randomly generated status updates. The status updates are sent to an designated destination in a real-time manner over an…

Age of information is a new network performance metric that captures the freshness of information at end-users. This paper studies the age of information from a scheduling perspective. To that end, we consider a wireless broadcast network…

Coordination of distributed agents is required for problems arising in many areas, including multi-robot systems, networking and e-commerce. As a formal framework for such problems, we use the decentralized partially observable Markov…

Devices can now be powered wirelessly by Access Points (APs). However, an AP cannot transmit frequently to charge devices as it may starve other nearby APs operating on the same channel. Consequently, there is a need to schedule the…
