Resource Allocation in Complex Adversarial Environments

Abstract

The focus of this proposal is on the design and analysis of control strategies for resource-allocation problems in complex adversarial environments. Representative examples of such resource-allocation problems include persistent monitoring and detection, supply chain management, task allocation and mission decomposition, among others. Regardless of the specific application domain, the primary goal is to design admissible control algorithms that guarantee efficient and reliable behavior for the problem at hand. The design of admissible control strategies for such problem domains is inherently challenging as a system designed must contend with a host issues ranging from the need for distributed decision-making, informational and computational limitations, as well as operation in adversarial environments.
