摘要:. Distributed coordination of multi-agent systems has been studied extensively due to its wide range of applications in many areas, such as spacecraft formation flying, multiple robot coordination, flocking and cooperative control of vehicle formations. This talk discusses the hybrid control of multi-agent systems with both time delays and switching topologies. Criteria on consensus, synchronization, and stability are established. Examples are provided to illustrate the proposed approaches.
