Discrete Time Kuramoto Models with Delay
Motivated by the needs of multiagent systems in the presence of sensing and communication that is delayed, intermittent and asynchronous, we present...

Distributed Control over Failing Channels
We give sufficient convex conditions for the existence of a distributed controller, with the same interconnection structure as the plant, when the...
