Analysis of the main consensus protocols of blockchain
ICT Express, 2020 Blockchain is the core technology of many cryptocurrencies. Blockchain as a distributed ledger technology has received extensive research attention. In addition to cryptography and P2P (peer-to-peer) technology, consensus protocols are also a fundamental

MOPaC: The Multiple Offers Protocol for Multilateral Negotiations with Partial Consensus [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Existing protocols for multilateral negotiation require a full consensus among the negotiating parties. In contrast, we propose a protocol for multilateral negotiation that allows partial consensus, wherein only a subset of the negotiating parties can reach an agreement.

Consensus of Second-Order Heterogeneous Hybrid Multiagent Systems via Event-Triggered Protocols
Complexity, 2022 This paper investigates the event-based consensus problem for the heterogeneous hybrid multiagent system (MAS). First, the heterogeneous hybrid MAS is proposed which contains continuous and discrete-time subsystems with second-order and first-order ...

Bipartite Consensus on Coopetition Networks With Time-Varying Delays
IEEE Access, 2018 In this paper, the bipartite consensus problem is investigated for multiagent systems with second-order dynamics and antagonistic interactions. We consider bipartite consensus under two kinds of protocols.

Data-Driven Consensus Protocol Classification Using Machine Learning
MathematicsThe consensus protocol plays a vital role in the performance and security of a specific Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) solution. Currently, the traditional classification of consensus algorithms relies on subjective criteria, such as protocol ...

Group Consensus of Mixed-Order Multi-Agent Systems With Fixed and Directed Interactive Topology
IEEE Access, 2019 This paper studies the group consensus of discrete-time mixed-order multi-agent systems with fixed and directed interactive topology. First, group consensus protocols are designed for all agents to investigate the group consensus of mixed-order multi ...
