Couple-Group Secure Consensus and Detection for a Kind of Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Systems With Time Delay and Cooperative-Competitive Relations Under Malicious Attacks

IEEE Access, 2023
In this article, the couple-group secure consensus of a kind of heterogeneous multi-agent systems (HMASs) with cooperative-competitive relation and time delays has been investigated if it receives malicious attacks.

Queuing Theory of Improved Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerant Consensus

Mathematics, 2022
In recent years, the use of consensus mechanism to maintain the security of blockchain system has become a considerable concern of the community. Delegated proof of stake (DPoS) and practical Byzantine fault tolerant (PBFT) consensus mechanisms are key ...

Useful Argumentation: A Critique of the Epistemological Approach

Informal Logic, 2005
The main rationale for adopting the epistemological approach to argumentation seems to take the form of a criticism of the consensus theory. This criticism says that some instances of clearly bad argumentation count as acceptable instances of ...

Finite-Time and Fixed-Time Consensus of Nonlinear Stochastic Multi-Agent Systems With ROUs and RONs via Impulsive Control

IEEE Access, 2019
This paper discusses the finite-time and the fixed-time consensus of nonlinear stochastic multi-agent systems (NSMSs) with randomly occurring uncertainties (ROUs) and randomly occurring nonlinearities (RONs) in a leader-following framework.

Distributed Cooperative Disturbance-Rejection Control of Hybrid Alternating Current/Direct Current Distribution Grids with Multiple Inverters

Shanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao
Voltage stability control in distribution grids faces challenges due to strong nonlinearity, modeling error of power electronic devices, and external disturbances. Distributed cooperative disturbance-rejection control of multiple inverters is a novel and

What is ‘Theory’ in Grounded Theory?

Grounded Theory Review: An International Journal, 2022
Theory is often discussed in relation to research. However, despite its frequent reference, there is a lack of consensus on what theory is. This article briefly discusses some views of theory within sociology and the lack of consensus over what ...
