The second-order parametric consensus protocol [PDF]

2014 European Control Conference (ECC), 2014
In this paper we extend the parametric consensus protocol recently introduced by the author, to more realistic agents modeled as double integrators and interacting over an undirected communication network. The stability properties of the new protocol in terms of the real parameter "s" are studied for some relevant graph topologies, and the connection ...

Fully relative state constraint impulsive consensus of nonlinear multi‐agent systems via state‐dependent impulsive protocols

IET Control Theory & Applications, 2021
In this paper, the state‐dependent impulsive consensus problem of nonlinear multi‐agent systems in directed topology with fully relative state constraint impulses is investigated.

Robustness and efficiency of voting consensus protocols within byzantine infrastructures

Blockchain: Research and Applications, 2021
This paper investigates several voting consensus protocols with low computational complexity in noisy Byzantine infrastructures. Using computer simulations, we show that explicit randomization of the consensus protocol can significantly increase the ...

Distributed Weight Selection in Consensus Protocols by Schatten Norm Minimization

, 2014
In average consensus protocols, nodes in a network perform an iterative weighted average of their estimates and those of their neighbors. The protocol converges to the average of initial estimates of all nodes found in the network.

Deep Reinforcement Learning Empowered Adaptivity for Future Blockchain Networks

IEEE 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.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Osteosarcoma: Local Control Outcomes With Dosimetric Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.

Prolonged Corrected QT Interval as an Early Electrocardiographic Marker of Cyclophosphamide‐Induced Cardiotoxicity in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Patients

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

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

Journal 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

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.

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 ...
