A multiagent system should be capable of fast and flexible decision-making to successfully
manage the uncertainty, variability, and dynamic change encountered when operating in the …

Recent years have witnessed a trend to use networked multiple autonomous agents to
accomplish complex tasks arising from space-based applications, smart grids, and machine …

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

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 …

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

This paper studies the problem of controlling complex networks, ie, the joint problem of
selecting a set of control nodes and of designing a control input to steer a network to a target …

The process by which new ideas, innovations, and behaviors spread through a large social
network can be thought of as a networked interaction game: Each agent obtains information …

This paper describes a new consensus-based protocol, referred to as Average TimeSync
(ATS), for synchronizing the clocks of a wireless sensor network. This algorithm is based on …

Due to their high fault-tolerance and scalability to large networks, consensus-based
distributed algorithms have recently gained immense popularity in the sensor networks …

We address the problem of distributed unconstrained convex optimization under separability
assumptions, ie, the framework where each agent of a network is endowed with a local …
