Multiuser computation offloading for edge-cloud collaboration using submodular optimization

open access: yesTongxin xuebao, 2020
A computation offloading scheme based on edge-cloud computing was proposed to improve the system utility of multiuser computation offloading.This scheme improved the system utility while considering the optimization of edge-cloud resources.In order to ...

Randomization-Embedded Greed: Pursuing More Platform Profits in Mobile Crowd Sensing

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The recent proliferation of sensor-equipped mobile phones, together with the intrinsic mobility of their users, has enabled mobile crowdsensing (MCS) to spring up. In a typical MCS system, the MCS platform recruits mobile phone users (workers) to perform

Optimal Region Search with Submodular Maximization [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Twenty-Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2020
Region search is an important problem in location-based services due to its wide applications. In this paper, we study the problem of optimal region search with submodular maximization (ORS-SM). This problem considers a region as a connected subgraph.

Reconsidering Volume‐Based Drug Procurement Policy: The Consequences of Manufacturers' Optimal Production Planning and Breach Strategies

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impacts of Volume‐Based Procurement (VBP) policies on pharmaceutical supply chains, with a focus on the strategic behaviors of manufacturers. VBP aims to reduce costs and stabilize supplies by centralizing procurement through competition based on volumes and prices.

Weakly Submodular Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Submodular functions are well-studied in combinatorial optimization, game theory and economics. The natural diminishing returns property makes them suitable for many applications. We study an extension of monotone submodular functions, which we call {\em

Multi-Agent Submodular Optimization

open access: yes, 2018
Recent years have seen many algorithmic advances in the area of submodular optimization: (SO) $\min/\max~f(S): S \in \mathcal{F}$, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a given family of feasible sets over a ground set $V$ and $f:2^V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is submodular. This progress has been coupled with a wealth of new applications for these models.

The Weak Core, Partition‐Based Universal Stability, and Their Risk Associations Through A Partial Order

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We are concerned with the stability of a transferable‐utility cooperative (TU) game. First, the concept of core can be weakened so that the blocking of changes is limited to only those with multilateral backings. This principle of consensual blocking, as well as the traditional core‐defining one of unilateral blocking and one straddling in ...
