An approximate dual subgradient algorithm for multi-agent non-convex optimization
We consider a multi-agent optimization problem where agents aim to cooperatively minimize a sum of local objective functions subject to a global inequality constraint and a global ...

Bounded approximate decentralised coordination via the max-sum algorithm
In this paper we propose a novel approach to decentralised coordination, that is able to efficiently compute solutions with a guaranteed approximation ratio. Our approach is base...
