Bipartite Consensus of Linear Discrete-Time Multiagent Systems with Exogenous Disturbances under Competitive Networks

open access: yesComplexity, 2021
This paper investigates the bipartite consensus of linear discrete-time multiagent systems (MASs) with exogenous disturbances. A discrete-time disturbance-observer- (DTDO-) based technology is involved for attenuating the exogenous disturbances. And both

Distributed consensus protocols for coordinating buyers [PDF]

open access: yes42nd IEEE International Conference on Decision and Control (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37475), 2004
In this paper, we introduce a distributed consensus protocol for coordinating orders of a network of buyers also called agents/decision makers. Each buyer chooses a different threshold strategy, defining its intention to place an order only if at least other l buyers will do the same.

Brief Announcement: Revisiting Consensus Protocols through Wait-Free Parallelization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this brief announcement, we propose a protocol-agnostic approach to improve the design of primary-backup consensus protocols. At the core of our approach is a novel wait-free design of running several instances of the underlying consensus protocol in ...

Consensus definitions of 14 severe acute toxic effects for childhood lymphoblastic leukaemia treatment: a Delphi consensus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Although there are high survival rates for children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, their outcome is often counterbalanced by the burden of toxic effects.

A Location-based and Hierarchical Framework for Fast Consensus in Blockchain Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Blockchain-based IoT systems can manage IoT devices and achieve a high level of data integrity, security, and provenance. However, incorporating the existing consensus protocols in many IoT systems limits scalability and leads to high computational cost and network latency.

Deep Reinforcement Learning Empowered Adaptivity for Future Blockchain Networks

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of the Computer Society, 2021
Recently, blockchain has elicited escalating attention from academia to industry. However, blockchain is still in its initial stage, and remains a great number of non-trivial problems to be delved before being used as a generic platform.
