Flocks, herds and schools: A distributed behavioral model
The aggregate motion of a flock of birds, a herd of land animals, or a school of fish is a beautiful and familiar part of the natural world. But this type of complex motion is rar...

eQuus: A Provably Robust and Locality-Aware Peer-to-Peer System
Peer-to-peer systems (p2p) are highly dynamic in nature. They may consist of millions of peers joining only for a limited period of time, resulting in hundreds of join and leave e...

Automatic Synthesis of Controllers for Distributed Assembly and Formation Forming
We consider the task of assembling a large number of self controlled parts (or robots) into copies of a prescribed assembly (or formation). In particular, we introduce a way to sy...

Optimization and analysis of distributed averaging with short node memory
Distributed averaging describes a class of network algorithms for the decentralized computation of aggregate statistics. Initially, each node has a scalar data value, and the goal...
