Non-convex scheduling of energy production allows for more complex models that better describe the physical nature of the energy production system. Solutions to non-convex optimization problems can only be guaranteed to be local optima.

Convex optimization–based multi-user detection in underwater acoustic sensor networks
Multi-carrier code-division multiple access is an important technical means for high-performance underwater acoustic sensor networks. Nevertheless, severe multiple access interference is a huge challenge.

Convex 1-D first-order total variation (TV) denoising is an effective method for eliminating signal noise, which can be defined as convex optimization consisting of a quadratic data fidelity term and a non-convex regularization term.

Predictive online convex optimization [PDF]
We incorporate future information in the form of the estimated value of future gradients in online convex optimization. This is motivated by demand response in power systems, where forecasts about the current round, e.g., the weather or the loads' behavior, can be used to improve on predictions made with only past observations.

Convex Optimization of Bioprocesses
We optimize a general model of bioprocesses, which is nonconvex due to the microbial growth in the biochemical reactors. We formulate a convex relaxation and give conditions guaranteeing its exactness in both the transient and steady state cases. When the growth kinetics are modeled by the Monod function under constant biomass or the Contois function ...

Communication and Computation Cooperation in Wireless Network for Mobile Edge Computing
The advantages of mobile edge computing (MEC) in lower energy consumption, improved bandwidth and reduced delay have attracted extensive studies. We consider a multiple smart wearable devices (SWDs) single smart mobile device (SMD) MEC system where the ...
