Recent years have witnessed a significant trend towards filling the gap between Social
Network Analysis (SNA) and control theory. This trend was enabled by the introduction of …

This paper reviews some main results and progress in distributed multi-agent coordination,
focusing on papers published in major control systems and robotics journals since 2006 …

“I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.”—
Woody Allen The emergence of (relatively) cheap sensing and actuation nodes, capable of …

Recent advances in miniaturizing of computing, communication, sensing, and actuation
have made it feasible to envision large numbers of autonomous vehicles (air, ground, and …

The purpose of this article is to provide a tutorial overview of information consensus in
multivehicle cooperative control. Theoretical results regarding consensus-seeking under …

This self-contained introduction to the distributed control of robotic networks offers a
distinctive blend of computer science and control theory. The book presents a broad set of …

This paper addresses task allocation to coordinate a fleet of autonomous vehicles by
presenting two decentralized algorithms: the consensus-based auction algorithm (CBAA) …

Gossip algorithms are attractive for in-network processing in sensor networks because they
do not require any specialized routing, there is no bottleneck or single point of failure, and …

The presence of uncertainty in a system description has always been a critical issue in
control. The main objective of Randomized Algorithms for Analysis and Control of Uncertain …

This paper investigates the average-consensus problem of first-order discrete-time multi-
agent networks in uncertain communication environments. Each agent can only use its own …
