Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an increasingly connected world, the term cyber-physical networks has been coined to refer to the communication among devices that is turning smart devices into smart (cooperating) systems. The distinctive feature of such systems is that significant advantage can be obtained if its interconnected, complex nature is exploited. Several challenges arising in cyber-physical networks can be stated as optimization problems. Examples are estimation, decision, learning and control applications. In cyber-physical networks, the goal is to design algorithms, based on the exchange of information among the processors, that take advantage of the aggregated computational power. Distributed Optimization for Smart Cyber-Physical Networks provides a comprehensive overview of the most common approaches used to design distributed optimization algorithms, together with the theoretical analysis of the main schemes in their basic version. It identifies and formalizes classes of problem set-ups that arise in motivating application scenarios. For each set-up, in order to give the main tools for analysis, tailored distributed algorithms in simplified cases are reviewed. Extensions and generalizations of the basic schemes are also discussed at the end of each chapter. Distributed Optimization for Smart Cyber-Physical Networks provides the reader with an accessible overview of the current research and gives important pointers towards new developments. It is an excellent starting point for research and students unfamiliar with the topic.

Download or read book AIMD Dynamics and Distributed Resource Allocation written by M. Corless and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive book on the AIMD algorithm, the most widely used method for allocating a limited resource among competing agents without centralized control. The authors offer a new approach that is based on positive switched linear systems. It is used to develop most of the main results found in the book, and fundamental results on stochastic switched nonnegative and consensus systems are derived to obtain these results. The original and best known application of the algorithm is in the context of congestion control and resource allocation on the Internet, and readers will find details of several variants of the algorithm in order of increasing complexity, including deterministic, random, linear, and nonlinear versions. In each case, stability and convergence results are derived based on unifying principles. Basic and fundamental properties of the algorithm are described, examples are used to illustrate the richness of the resulting dynamical systems, and applications are provided to show how the algorithm can be used in the context of smart cities, intelligent transportation systems, and the smart grid.
Download or read book Resource Allocation and Cross layer Control in Wireless Networks written by Leonidas Georgiadis and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2006 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information flow in a telecommunication network is accomplished through the interaction of mechanisms at various design layers with the end goal of supporting the information exchange needs of the applications. In wireless networks in particular, the different layers interact in a nontrivial manner in order to support information transfer. In this text we will present abstract models that capture the cross-layer interaction from the physical to transport layer in wireless network architectures including cellular, ad-hoc and sensor networks as well as hybrid wireless-wireline. The model allows for arbitrary network topologies as well as traffic forwarding modes, including datagrams and virtual circuits. Furthermore the time varying nature of a wireless network, due either to fading channels or to changing connectivity due to mobility, is adequately captured in our model to allow for state dependent network control policies. Quantitative performance measures that capture the quality of service requirements in these systems depending on the supported applications are discussed, including throughput maximization, energy consumption minimization, rate utility function maximization as well as general performance functionals. Cross-layer control algorithms with optimal or suboptimal performance with respect to the above measures are presented and analyzed. A detailed exposition of the related analysis and design techniques is provided.

Download or read book Advancing Intelligent Networks Through Distributed Optimization written by Rajest, S. Suman and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The numerous developments in wireless communications and artificial intelligence (AI) have recently transformed the Internet of Things (IoT) networks to a level of connectivity and intelligence beyond any prior design. This topology is sharply exemplified in mobile edge computing, smart cities, smart homes, smart grids, and the IoT, among many other intelligent applications. Intelligent networks are founded on integrating caching and multi-agent systems that optimize data storage and the entire devices learning process. However, a central node through which all agents transmit status messages and reward information is a major drawback of this design pattern. This central node condition instigates more communication overhead, potential data leakage, and the birth of data islands. To reverse this trend, using distributed optimization techniques and methodologies in cache-enabled multi-agent learning environments is increasingly beneficial. Advancing Intelligent Networks Through Distributed Optimization explains the current race for sophisticated and accurate distributed optimization in cache-enabled intelligent IoT networks given the need to make multi-agent learning converge faster and reduce communication overhead. These techniques will require innovative resource allocation strategies stretching from system training to caching, communication, and processing amongst millions of agents. This book combines the key recent research in these races into a single binder that can serve all the interested theoretical and practical scholars. The book focuses broadly on intelligent systems optimization trends. It identifies the various applications of advanced distributed optimization from manufacturing to medicine, agriculture and smart cities.
Download or read book Convex Optimization Theory written by Dimitri Bertsekas and published by Athena Scientific. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful, concise, and rigorous treatment of the basic theory of convex sets and functions in finite dimensions, and the analytical/geometrical foundations of convex optimization and duality theory. Convexity theory is first developed in a simple accessible manner, using easily visualized proofs. Then the focus shifts to a transparent geometrical line of analysis to develop the fundamental duality between descriptions of convex functions in terms of points, and in terms of hyperplanes. Finally, convexity theory and abstract duality are applied to problems of constrained optimization, Fenchel and conic duality, and game theory to develop the sharpest possible duality results within a highly visual geometric framework. This on-line version of the book, includes an extensive set of theoretical problems with detailed high-quality solutions, which significantly extend the range and value of the book. The book may be used as a text for a theoretical convex optimization course; the author has taught several variants of such a course at MIT and elsewhere over the last ten years. It may also be used as a supplementary source for nonlinear programming classes, and as a theoretical foundation for classes focused on convex optimization models (rather than theory). It is an excellent supplement to several of our books: Convex Optimization Algorithms (Athena Scientific, 2015), Nonlinear Programming (Athena Scientific, 2017), Network Optimization(Athena Scientific, 1998), Introduction to Linear Optimization (Athena Scientific, 1997), and Network Flows and Monotropic Optimization (Athena Scientific, 1998).
