Coordinated consensus in dynamic networks
We study several variants of coordinated consensus in dynamic networks. We assume a synchronous model, where the communication graph for each round is chosen by a worst-case adver...

A local average consensus algorithm for wireless sensor networks
—In many application scenarios sensors need to calculate the average of some local values, e.g. of local measurements. A possible solution is to rely on consensus algorithms. In ...
