Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are submersible underwater vehicles controlled
by onboard computers. AUV formation is a cooperative control which focuses on controlling …

The last decade has seen an explosion of research in network controllability. The present
article reviews some basic concepts, significant progress, important results and recent …

“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 …

In this paper, the problem of driving a collection of mobile robots to a given target destination
is studied. In particular, we are interested in achieving this transfer in an orderly manner so …

In this work, we consider the controlled agreement problem for multi-agent networks, where
a collection of agents take on leader roles while the remaining agents execute local …

This paper presents a method for controlling a swarm of quadrotors to perform agile
interleaved maneuvers while holding a fixed relative formation, or transitioning between …

This paper introduces a new consensus-based control scheme for distributed power
systems to solve the distributed economic dispatch (DED) problem. With the development of …

We study bipartite, first-order networks where the nodes take on leader or follower roles.
Specifically, we let the leaders' positions be static and assume that leaders and followers …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely deployed in many applications such as
transportation, data collection, monitoring, or tracking objects. Nowadays, numerous …

In this paper, coherent formation control of a multi-agent system in the presence of time-
varying formation is studied. For special application of rescue and surveillance, a set of …
