Scheduling Rigid Demands on Continuous-Time Linear Shift-Invariant Systems
Farhad Farokhi, Michael Cantoni, Iman Shames
We consider load scheduling on constrained continuous-time linear dynamical systems, such as automated irrigation and other distribution networks. The requested loads are rigid, i.…
Quadratic Gaussian Privacy Games
Farhad Farokhi, Henrik Sandberg, Iman Shames +1
A game-theoretic model for analysing the effects of privacy on strategic communication between agents is devised. In the model, a sender wishes to provide an accurate measurement o…
Budget-Constrained Contract Design for Effort-Averse Sensors in Averaging Based Estimation
Farhad Farokhi, Iman Shames, Michael Cantoni
Consider a group of effort-averse, or lazy, sensors that seek to minimize the effort invested to collect measurements of a variable. Increasing the effort invested by the sensors i…
Promoting Truthful Behaviour in Participatory-Sensing Mechanisms
Farhad Farokhi, Iman Shames, Michael Cantoni
In this paper, the interplay between a class of nonlinear estimators and strategic sensors is studied in several participatory-sensing scenarios. It is shown that for the class of…
