Submodularity in Dynamics and Control of Networked Systems
Clark, Andrew / Alomair, Basel / Bushnell, Linda / Poovendran, Radha
This book presents a framework for the control of networked systems utilizing submodular optimization techniques. The main focus is on selecting input nodes for the control of networked systems, an inherently discrete optimization problem with applications in power system stability, social influence dynamics, and the control of vehicle formations. The first part of the book is devoted to background information on submodular functions, matroids...
