From local averaging to emergent global behaviors: the fundamental role of network interconnections
arXiv:1509.08572 · doi:10.1016/j.sysconle.2016.02.003
Abstract
Distributed averaging is one of the simplest and most studied network dynamics. Its applications range from cooperative inference in sensor networks, to robot formation, to opinion dynamics. A number of fundamental results and examples scattered through the literature are gathered here and originally presented, emphasizing the deep interplay between the network interconnection structure and the emergent global behavior.
