We consider the role of topological dimension in problems of network consensus and vehicular formations where only local feedback is available. In particular, we consider the simpl...

Abstract-- Stability analysis of decentralized control mechanisms for networked, coordinating systems has generally focused on specific controller implementations, such as nearest ...
Network distance, measured as round-trip latency between hosts, is important for the performance of many Internet applications. For example, nearest server selection and proximity...
Abstract— The objective of the paper is to provide qualitative insight into the global effects of distributed mechanisms, such as carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) and rate co...
