Homogeneity in the bi-limit as a tool for observer and feedback design
Abstract-- We introduce an extension of the notion of homogeneous approximation to make it valid both at the origin and at infinity (homogeneity in the bi-limit). Exploiting this e...

Self-deployment of mobile sensors on a ring
Mobile sensors can self-deploy in a purely decentralized and distributed fashion, so to reach in finite time a state of static equilibrium in which they cover uniformly the enviro...

On Opinion Dynamics in Heterogeneous Networks
This paper studies the opinion dynamics model recently introduced by Hegselmann and Krause: (1) each agent in a group mantains a real number describing its opinion, (2) each agent ...

Optimization-Based Verification and Stability Characterization of Piecewise Affine and Hybrid Systems
In this paper, we formulate the problem of characterizing the stability of a piecewise affine (PWA) system as a verification problem. The basic idea is to take the whole Rn as the ...

Self-deployment Algorithms for Mobile Sensors on a Ring
Abstract. We consider the self-deployment problem in a ring for a network of identical sensors: starting from some initial random placement in the ring, the sensors in the network ...
