In this paper, the fast consensus problem of high-order multi-agent systems (MASs) under undirected topologies is considered. The direct link between convergence rate and control gains established. A gradient descent based algorithm proposed to optimize rate. By applying Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion, lower bound on derived, explicit are derived as conditions achieve optimal Moreover, a pro...

In this article we survey the main research topics of our group at University Essex. Our interests lie intersection theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, and economic theory. particular, focus on design analysis mechanisms for systems involving multiple strategic agents, both from a an applied perspective. We present overview group’s activities, as well its members, then discus...
