Stability of a second order consensus algorithm with time delay
—In this paper, we investigate a second order consensus problem in a directed graph with non-uniform time delay. This problem arises naturally in real multi-agent systems such as...

Approximate Distributed Kalman Filtering for Cooperative Multi-agent Localization
Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating the locations of mobile agents by fusing the measurements of displacements of the agents as well as relative position measurements b...

A Problem-Specific Fault-Tolerance Mechanism for Asynchronous, Distributed Systems
The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...

Halo: Managing Node Rendezvous in Opportunistic Sensor Networks
One vision of an opportunistic sensor network (OSN) uses sensor access points (SAPs) to assign mobile sensors with sensing tasks submitted by applications that could be running any...

A Method for Approximate Inversion of the Hyperbolic CDF
It has been observed by E. Eberlein and U. Keller that the hyperbolic distribution fits logarithmic rates of returns of a stock much better than the normal distribution. We give a...
