Multi-Uav Deployment And Collaborative Offloading For Large-Scale Iot Systems, Zhiqin Huang, Tianying Lu, Zheyi Chen Jan 2025

Multi-Uav Deployment And Collaborative Offloading For Large-Scale Iot Systems, Zhiqin Huang, Tianying Lu, Zheyi Chen

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In large-scale internet-of-things (IoT) systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) enabled mobile edge computing (MEC) can alleviate the performance constraints on end IoT devices. However, due to the uneven distribution of IoT devices and inefficient problem-solving, how to efficiently perform computation offloading in large-scale IoT systems is a major challenge. Existing solutions generally cannot fit into dynamic multi-UAV scenarios, causing inefficient resource utilization and excessive response delay. To address these important challenges, this paper proposes a novel multi-UAV deployment and collaborative offloading (MUCO) method for large-scale IoT systems. A UAV deployment scheme based on constrained K-Means clustering is designed to …

Balancing Anarchy And Efficiency: Partial Team Formations And Learning In Potential Games, Muhammed Sayin Jan 2025

Balancing Anarchy And Efficiency: Partial Team Formations And Learning In Potential Games, Muhammed Sayin

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Non-cooperative multi-agent learning, focusing on individual rationality (anarchy), often falls short in achieving system-wide efficiency in potential games, a class of games with applications in decentralized control and optimization. On the other hand, cooperative approaches prioritize system efficiency but often via global coordination, which could be impractical, e.g., for large-scale and less controlled environments. To address this dilemma, we propose a novel framework that introduces partial team formations, allowing team members with shared objectives to coordinate their actions while maintaining team-wise rationality for improved system-wide efficiency without the burden of global coordination. We model such interactions as a multi-team game …
