In recent years, we have observed a significant trend towards filling the gap between social
network analysis and control. This trend was enabled by the introduction of new …

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 …

Topics These lecture notes are intended primarily for graduate students interested in
network systems, distributed algorithms, and cooperative control. The objective is to answer …

We present a survey of formation control of multi-agent systems. Focusing on the sensing
capability and the interaction topology of agents, we categorize the existing results into …

The emergence of synchronization in a network of coupled oscillators is a fascinating
subject of multidisciplinary research. This survey reviews the vast literature on the theory …

In a consensus protocol an agreement among agents is achieved thanks to the collaborative
efforts of all agents, expresses by a communication graph with nonnegative weights. The …

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 …

This paper is concerned with developing a distributed k-means algorithm and a distributed
fuzzy c-means algorithm for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) where each node is equipped …

The bipartite consensus problem for a group of homogeneous generic linear agents with
input saturation under directed interaction topology is examined. It is established that if each …

Most of the distributed protocols for multi-agent consensus assume that the agents are
mutually cooperative and “trustful,” and so the couplings among the agents bring the values …
