This paper provides a theoretical framework for analysis of consensus algorithms for multi-
agent networked systems with an emphasis on the role of directed information flow …

This paper presents analysis and design results for distributed consensus algorithms in multi-
agent networks. We consider continuous consensus functions of the initial state of the …

We study the average consensus problem of multi-agent systems for general network
topologies with unidirectional information flow. We propose two linear distributed algorithms …

This paper addresses the consensus problem of multiagent systems with a time-invariant
communication topology consisting of general linear node dynamics. A distributed observer …

This paper proposes the matrix-weighted consensus algorithm, which is a generalization of
the consensus algorithm. Given a networked dynamical system where the interconnections …

Consensus protocols are distributed algorithms in networked multi-agent systems. Based on
the local information, agents automatically converge to a common consensus state and the …

This technical note studies the consensus problem for cooperative agents with nonlinear
dynamics in a directed network. Both local and global consensus are defined and …

In this paper, we discuss consensus problems for networks of dynamic agents with fixed and
switching topologies. We analyze three cases: 1) directed networks with fixed topology; 2) …

In this paper, we provide tools for convergence and performance analysis of an agreement
protocol for a network of integrator agents with directed information flow. We also analyze …

In this book for the first time two scientific fields-consensus formation and synchronization of
communications-are presented together and examined through their interrelational aspects …
