Abstract: This paper studies distributed submodular optimization subject to partition matroid. We work in the value oracle model where the only access of the agents to the utility function is through ...

In the first long-term and real-world reflective study of its kind, scientists have uncovered new detrimental health impacts of the artificial sweetener aspartame that echoes those found in shorter ...

ABSTRACT: Piyavskii’s algorithm maximizes a univariate function satisfying a Lipschitz condition. We propose a modified Piyavskii’s sequential algorithm which maximizes a univariate differentiable ...

Abstract: Network function virtualization (NFV)-enabled space information network (SIN) has emerged as a promising method to facilitate global coverage and seamless service. This paper proposes a ...
