We report on a case study in the emergence of a lexicon in a group of autonomous distributed agents situated and grounded in an open environment. Because the agents are autonomous,...
We propose a class of discrete-time dynamic average consensus algorithms that allow a group of agents to track the average of their reference inputs. The convergence results rely ...
A secure multicast framework should only allow authorized members of a group to decrypt received messages; usually, one ‘‘group key’’ is shared by all approved members. Ho...
This paper presents an approach for managing access to services over presence-based communications based on the context of the situation. This paper addresses two technical challe...
Many emerging applications in both wired and wireless networks need support of secure group communications. There have been many secure group communication schemes in the setting ...
