We present a Lagrangian decomposition approach for the Knapsack Constrained Maximum Spanning Tree problem yielding upper bounds as well as heuristic solutions. This method is furth...
— We consider dual subgradient methods for solving (nonsmooth) convex constrained optimization problems. Our focus is on generating approximate primal solutions with performance ...
Abstract--Motivated by applications of distributed linear estimation, distributed control, and distributed optimization, we consider the question of designing linear iterative algo...
