In this article, we present a finite time stopping criterion for consensus algorithms in networks with dynamic communication topology. Recent results provide asymptotic convergence to the consensus algorithm. However, the asymptotic convergence of these algorithms pose a challenge in the practical settings where the response from agents is required in finite time. To this end, we propose a Maximum-Minimum protocol which propagates the global maximum and minimum values of agent states (while running consensus algorithm) in the network. We establish that global maximum and minimum values are strictly monotonic even for a dynamic topology and can be utilized to distributively ascertain the closeness to convergence in finite time. We show that each node can have access to the global maximum and minimum by running the proposed Maximum-Minimum protocol and use it as a finite time stopping criterion for the otherwise asymptotic consensus algorithm. The practical utility of the algorithm is illustrated through experiments where each agent is instantiated by a NodeJS socket.io server.

We introduce a general mathematical framework for distributed algorithms, and a monotonicity property frequently satisfied in application. These properties are leveraged to provide finite-time guarantees for converging algorithms, suited for use in t
he absence of a central authority. A central application is to consensus algorithms in higher dimension. These pursuits motivate a new peer to peer convex hull algorithm which we demonstrate to be an instantiation of the described theory. To address the diversity of convex sets and the potential computation and communication costs of knowing such sets in high dimension, a lightweight norm based stopping criteria is developed. More explicitly, we give a distributed algorithm that terminates in finite time when applied to consensus problems in higher dimensions and guarantees the convergence of the consensus algorithm in norm, within any given tolerance. Applications to consensus least squared estimation and distributed function determination are developed. The practical utility of the algorithm is illustrated through MATLAB simulations.
This paper addresses the robust consensus problem under switching topologies. Contrary to existing methods, the proposed approach provides decentralized protocols that achieve consensus for networked multi-agent systems in a predefined time. Namely,
the protocol design provides a tuning parameter that allows setting the convergence time of the agents to a consensus state. An appropriate Lyapunov analysis exposes the capability of the current proposal to achieve predefined-time consensus over switching topologies despite the presence of bounded perturbations. Finally, the paper presents a comparison showing that the suggested approach subsumes existing fixed-time consensus algorithms and provides extra degrees of freedom to obtain predefined-time consensus protocols that are less over-engineered, i.e., the difference between the estimated convergence time and its actual value is lower in our approach. Numerical results are given to illustrate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed approach.
Classical distributed estimation scenarios typically assume timely and reliable exchanges of information over the sensor network. This paper, in contrast, considers single time-scale distributed estimation via a sensor network subject to transmission
time-delays. The proposed discrete-time networked estimator consists of two steps: (i) consensus on (delayed) a-priori estimates, and (ii) measurement update. The sensors only share their a-priori estimates with their out-neighbors over (possibly) time-delayed transmission links. The delays are assumed to be fixed over time, heterogeneous, and known. We assume distributed observability instead of local observability, which significantly reduces the communication/sensing loads on sensors. Using the notions of augmented matrices and Kronecker product, the convergence of the proposed estimator over strongly-connected networks is proved for a specific upper-bound on the time-delay.
In this paper, we consider the problem of optimally coordinating the response of a group of distributed energy resources (DERs) so they collectively meet the electric power demanded by a collection of loads, while minimizing the total generation cost
and respecting the DER capacity limits. This problem can be cast as a convex optimization problem, where the global objective is to minimize a sum of convex functions corresponding to individual DER generation cost, while satisfying (i) linear inequality constraints corresponding to the DER capacity limits and (ii) a linear equality constraint corresponding to the total power generated by the DERs being equal to the total power demand. We develop distributed algorithms to solve the DER coordination problem over time-varying communication networks with either bidirectional or unidirectional communication links. The proposed algorithms can be seen as distribute
In this paper, we consider the problem of privacy preservation in the average consensus problem when communication among nodes is quantized. More specifically, we consider a setting where some nodes in the network are curious but not malicious and th
ey try to identify the initial states of other nodes based on the data they receive during their operation (without interfering in the computation in any other way), while some nodes in the network want to ensure that their initial states cannot be inferred exactly by the curious nodes. We propose two privacy-preserving event-triggered quantized average consensus algorithms that can be followed by any node wishing to maintain its privacy and not reveal the initial state it contributes to the average computation. Every node in the network (including the curious nodes) is allowed to execute a privacy-preserving algorithm or its underlying average consensus algorithm. Under certain topological conditions, both algorithms allow the nodes who adopt privacypreserving protocols to preserve the privacy of their initial quantized states and at the same time to obtain, after a finite number of steps, the exact average of the initial states.
