Unbeatable Consensus

open access: yes, 2014
The unbeatability of a consensus protocol, introduced by Halpern, Moses and Waarts in 2001, is a stronger notion of optimality than the accepted notion of early stopping protocols.

On the consensus protocol of conspecific agents

open access: yesLinear Algebra and its Applications, 2012
AbstractWe present a class of consensus protocols over groups of agents with stochastically switching, directed, and weighted communication topologies. In this protocol, an agent’s traits, that is, the cardinality of its neighbor set and the weight assigned to its neighbors in the updating process, are given by two jointly distributed random variables ...

SightSteeple: Agreeing to Disagree with Functional Blockchain Consensus [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Classical and contemporary distributed consensus protocols, may they be for binary agreement, state machine replication, or blockchain consensus, require all protocol participants in a peer-to-peer system to agree on exactly the same information as part of the consensus payload. Although this model of consensus is extensively studied, and is useful for

Consensus of Second-Order Heterogeneous Hybrid Multiagent Systems via Event-Triggered Protocols

open access: yesComplexity, 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 ...

MOPaC: The Multiple Offers Protocol for Multilateral Negotiations with Partial Consensus [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 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.

An Assessment of Existing Sport-Related Concussion Guidelines in Ireland: The Need for a United Approach

open access: yesJournal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology
In 2014, an Irish parliament white paper called for greater addressing of sport-related concussions (SRCs) in Ireland, requesting the adoption of the Concussion in Sport Group’s (CISGs) guidelines and greater consistency in SRC return to play (RTP ...

Bipartite Consensus on Coopetition Networks With Time-Varying Delays

open access: yesIEEE 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.

Flexico: An efficient dual-mode consensus protocol for blockchain networks.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Blockchain is a Byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) system wherein decentralized nodes execute consensus protocols to drive the agreement process on new blocks added to a distributed ledger.

Distributed Consensus of Linear Multi-Agent Systems with Adaptive Dynamic Protocols

open access: yes, 2011
This paper considers the distributed consensus problem of multi-agent systems with general continuous-time linear dynamics. Two distributed adaptive dynamic consensus protocols are proposed, based on the relative output information of neighboring agents.
