چکیده

Given a network of processes where each node has an initial scalar value, we consider the problem of computing their average asymptotically using a distributed, linear iterative algorithm. At each iteration, each node replaces its own value with a weighted average of its previous value and the values of its neighbors. We introduce the Metropolis weights, a simple choice for the averaging weights used in each step. We show that with these weights, the values at every node converge to the average, provided the infinitely occurring communication graphs are jointly connected.

Approximation Solutions for Time-Varying Shortest Path Problem

Abstract. Time-varying network optimization problems have tradition-ally been solved by specialized algorithms. These algorithms have NP-complement time complexity. This paper considers the time-varying short-est path problem, in which can be optimally solved in O(T(m + n)) time,where T is a given integer. For this problem with arbitrary waiting times,we propose an approximation algorithm, whic...

Design and Implementation of a Kalman Filter-Based Time-Varying Harmonics Analyzer

Nowadays with increasing use of numerous nonlinear loads, voltage and current harmonics in power systems are one of the most important problems power engineers encounter. Many of these nonlinear loads, because of their dynamic natures, inject time-varying harmonics into power system. Common techniques applied for harmonics measurement and assessment such as FFT have significant errors in presen...
