This paper investigates the problem of distributed network-wide averaging and proposes a new greedy gossip algorithm. Instead of finding the optimal path of each node in a greedy manner, the proposed approach utilises a suboptimal communication path by performing greedy selection among randomly selected active local nodes. Theoretical analysis on convergence speed is also performed to investigate the characteristics of the proposed algorithm. The main feature of the new algorithm is that it provides great flexibility and well balance between communication cost and convergence performance introduced by the stochastic sampling strategy. Extensive numerical simulations are performed to validate the analytic findings.

We study a new variant of consensus problems, termed `local average consensus, in networks of agents. We consider the task of using sensor networks to perform distributed measurement of a parameter which has both spatial (in this paper 1D) and tempor al variations. Our idea is to maintain potentially useful local information regarding spatial variation, as contrasted with reaching a single, global consensus, as well as to mitigate the effect of measurement errors. We employ two schemes for computation of local average consensus: exponential weighting and uniform finite window. In both schemes, we design local average consensus algorithms to address first the case where the measured parameter has spatial variation but is constant in time, and then the case where the measured parameter has both spatial and temporal variations. Our designed algorithms are distributed, in that information is exchanged only among neighbors. Moreover, we analyze both spatial and temporal frequency responses and noise propagation associated with the algorithms. The tradeoffs of using local consensus, as compared to standard global consensus, include higher memory requirement and degraded noise performance. Arbitrary updating weights and random spacing between sensors are analyzed in the proposed algorithms.

Due to the limited generation and finite inertia, microgrid suffers from the large frequency and voltage deviation which can lead to system collapse. Thus, reliable load shedding to keep frequency stable is required. Wireless network, benefiting from the high flexibility and low deployment cost, is considered as a promising technology for fine-grained management. In this paper, for balancing the supply-demand and reducing the load-shedding amount, a distributed load shedding solution via wireless network is proposed. Firstly, active power coordination of different priority loads is formulated as an optimisation problem. To solve it, a distributed load shedding algorithm based on subgradient method (DLSS) is developed for gradually shedding loads. Using this method, power compensation can be utilised and has more time to lower the power deficit so as to reduce the load-shedding amount. Secondly, to increase the response rate and enhance the reliability of our method, a multicast metropolis schedule based on TDMA (MMST) is developed. In this protocol, time slots are dedicatedly allocated and a checking and retransmission mechanism is utilised. Finally, the proposed solution is evaluated by NS3-Matlab co-simulator. The numerical results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our solution.
In this paper, a short-term load forecasting approach based network reconfiguration is proposed in a parallel manner. Specifically, a support vector regression (SVR) based short-term load forecasting approach is designed to provide an accurate load p rediction and benefit the network reconfiguration. Because of the nonconvexity of the three-phase balanced optimal power flow, a second-order cone program (SOCP) based approach is used to relax the optimal power flow problem. Then, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is used to compute the optimal power flow in distributed manner. Considering the limited number of the switches and the increasing computation capability, the proposed network reconfiguration is solved in a parallel way. The numerical results demonstrate the feasible and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Recent studies on deep convolutional neural networks present a simple paradigm of architecture design, i.e., models with more MACs typically achieve better accuracy, such as EfficientNet and RegNet. These works try to enlarge all the stages in the mo del with one unified rule by sampling and statistical methods. However, we observe that some network architectures have similar MACs and accuracies, but their allocations on computations for different stages are quite different. In this paper, we propose to enlarge the capacity of CNN models by improving their width, depth and resolution on stage level. Under the assumption that the top-performing smaller CNNs are a proper subcomponent of the top-performing larger CNNs, we propose an greedy network enlarging method based on the reallocation of computations. With step-by-step modifying the computations on different stages, the enlarged network will be equipped with optimal allocation and utilization of MACs. On EfficientNet, our method consistently outperforms the performance of the original scaling method. In particular, with application of our method on GhostNet, we achieve state-of-the-art 80.9% and 84.3% ImageNet top-1 accuracies under the setting of 600M and 4.4B MACs, respectively.
Given the proximity of many wireless users and their diversity in consuming local resources (e.g., data-plans, computation and even energy resources), device-to-device (D2D) resource sharing is a promising approach towards realizing a sharing economy . In the resulting networked economy, $n$ users segment themselves into sellers and buyers that need to be efficiently matched locally. This paper adopts an easy-to-implement greedy matching algorithm with distributed fashion and only sub-linear $O(log n)$ parallel complexity, which offers a great advantage compared to the optimal but computational-expensive centralized matching. But is it efficient compared to the optimal matching? Extensive simulations indicate that in a large number of practical cases the average loss is no more than $10%$, a far better result than the $50%$ loss bound in the worst case. However, there is no rigorous average-case analysis in the literature to back up such encouraging findings, which is a fundamental step towards supporting the practical use of greedy matching in D2D sharing. This paper is the first to present the rigorous average analysis of certain representative classes of graphs with random parameters, by proposing a new asymptotic methodology. For typical 2D grids with random matching weights we rigorously prove that our greedy algorithm performs better than $84.9%$ of the optimal, while for typical Erdos-Renyi random graphs we prove a lower bound of $79%$ when the graph is neither dense nor sparse. Finally, we use realistic data to show that our random graph models approximate well D2D sharing networks encountered in practice.
