Fully Decentralized Design of Initialization-free Distributed Network Size Estimation

In this paper, we propose a distributed scheme for estimating the network size, which refers to the total number of agents in a network. By leveraging a synchronization technique for multi-agent systems, we devise an agent dynamics that ensures convergence to an equilibrium point located near the network size regardless of its initial condition. Our approach is based on an assumption that each agent has a unique identifier, and an estimation algorithm for obtaining the largest identifier value. By adopting this approach, we successfully implement the agent dynamics in a fully decentralized manner, ensuring accurate network size estimation even when some agents join or leave the network.

Decentralized Design and Plug-and-Play Distributed Control for Linear Multi-Channel Systems

We propose a distributed control, in which many identical control agents are deployed for controlling a linear time-invariant plant that has multiple input-output channels. Each control agent can join or leave the control loop during the operation of stabilization without particular initialization over the whole networked agents. Once new control agents join the loop, they self-organize their control dynamics, which does not interfere the control by other active agents, which is achieved by local communication with the neighboring agents. The key idea enabling these features is the use of Bass' algorithm, which allows the distributed computation of stabilizing gains by solving a Lyapunov equation in a distributed manner.
