Approximately Supermodular Scheduling Subject to Matroid Constraints

Control scheduling refers to the problem of assigning agents or actuators to act upon a dynamical system at specific times so as to minimize a quadratic control cost, such as the objectives of the linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) or linear quadratic regulator problems. When budget or operational constraints are imposed on the schedule, this problem is in general NP-hard and its solution can therefo...
