Distributed Dynamic Quantile Solver With Plug-and-Play Operation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
In this paper, we propose a continuous-time distributed algorithm for the dynamic quantile problem. The problem is to find the quantile of time-varying signals in a network of agents, each of which having the signal of its own.

Region-Searching of Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles: A Distributed Cooperative Path-Maneuvering Control Approach

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
In this article, a distributed cooperative path-maneuvering control approach is developed for the region-searching of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles under both dynamic uncertainties and ocean currents.

The deformed consensus protocol [PDF]

open access: yesAutomatica, 2013
This paper studies a generalization of the standard continuous-time consensus protocol, obtained by replacing the Laplacian matrix of the communication graph with the so-called deformed Laplacian. The deformed Laplacian is a second-degree matrix polynomial in the real variable s which reduces to the standard Laplacian for s equal to unity.

Probabilistic Consensus of the Blockchain Protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We introduce a temporal epistemic logic with probabilities as an extension of temporal epistemic logic. This extension enables us to reason about properties that characterize the uncertain nature of knowledge, like “agent a will with high probability know after time s same fact”.

Random consensus protocol in large-scale networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
One of the main performance issues for consensus protocols is the convergence speed. In this paper, we focus on the convergence behavior of discrete-time consensus protocols over large-scale sensor networks with uniformly random deployment, which are

Expressive Power of Broadcast Consensus Protocols [PDF]

open access: yes30th International Conference on Concurrency Theory, CONCUR 2019, 2019
Population protocols are a formal model of computation by identical, anonymous mobile agents interacting in pairs. Their computational power is rather limited: Angluin et al. have shown that they can only compute the predicates over $\mathbb{N}^k$ expressible in Presburger arithmetic. For this reason, several extensions of the model have been proposed,

A Review of consensus protocols in permissioned blockchains

open access: yesJournal of Computer Science Research, 2021
Consensus protocols are used for the distributed management of large databases in an environment without trust among participants. The choice of a specific protocol depends on the purpose and characteristics of the system itself.
