The Price of Simplicity: Analyzing Decoupled Policies for Multi-Location Inventory Control
Yohan John, Vade Shah, James A. Preiss +2
What is the performance cost of using simple, decoupled control policies in inherently coupled systems? Motivated by industrial refrigeration systems, where centralized compressors…
A Safe First-Order Method for Pricing-Based Resource Allocation in Safety-Critical Networks
Berkay Turan, Spencer Hutchinson, Mahnoosh Alizadeh
We introduce a novel algorithm for solving network utility maximization (NUM) problems that arise in resource allocation schemes over networks with known safety-critical constraint…
Safe Dual Gradient Method for Network Utility Maximization Problems
Berkay Turan, Mahnoosh Alizadeh
In this paper, we introduce a novel first-order dual gradient algorithm for solving network utility maximization problems that arise in resource allocation schemes over networks wi…
Robust Distributed Optimization With Randomly Corrupted Gradients
Berkay Turan, Cesar A. Uribe, Hoi-To Wai +1
In this paper, we propose a first-order distributed optimization algorithm that is provably robust to Byzantine failures-arbitrary and potentially adversarial behavior, where all t…
On Robustness of the Normalized Subgradient Method with Randomly Corrupted Subgradients
Berkay Turan, Cesar A. Uribe, Hoi-To Wai +1
Numerous modern optimization and machine learning algorithms rely on subgradient information being trustworthy and hence, they may fail to converge when such information is corrupt…
Competition in Electric Autonomous Mobility on Demand Systems
Berkay Turan, Mahnoosh Alizadeh
This paper investigates the impacts of competition in autonomous mobility-on-demand systems. By adopting a network-flow based formulation, we first determine the optimal strategies…
Resilient Primal-Dual Optimization Algorithms for Distributed Resource Allocation
Berkay Turan, Cesar A. Uribe, Hoi-To Wai +1
Distributed algorithms for multi-agent resource allocation can provide privacy and scalability over centralized algorithms in many cyber-physical systems. However, the distributed…
Resilient Distributed Optimization Algorithms for Resource Allocation
Cesar A. Uribe, Hoi-To Wai, Mahnoosh Alizadeh
Distributed algorithms provide flexibility over centralized algorithms for resource allocation problems, e.g., cyber-physical systems. However, the distributed nature of these algo…
From Packet to Power Switching: Digital Direct Load Scheduling
Mahnoosh Alizadeh, Anna Scaglione, Robert J. Thomas
At present, the power grid has tight control over its dispatchable generation capacity but a very coarse control on the demand. Energy consumers are shielded from making price-awar…
