Collective Behavior in Complex Networked Systems Under Imperfect Communication
暫譯: 不完美通信下複雜網絡系統中的集體行為

這本書旨在解釋在複雜網絡系統中，如何透過局部互動在不完美的通信條件下形成集體行為。它還提出了一些新的分散式協議或算法，以使複雜網絡系統能夠遵守帶寬限制並容忍通信延遲。

這本書將特別吸引讀者，因為它帶來了以下好處：1) 它通過非平滑分析技術和代數圖論研究時間延遲和量化對集體行為的影響；2) 它介紹了在延遲信息傳輸下的事件驅動共識方法；同時，它提出了一些新穎的方法來處理網絡系統中的通信限制；3) 它提供了一些針對具有有限通信能力的複雜網絡系統的同步和控制策略。此外，它還提供了一種針對具有節點故障的多代理系統的共識恢復方法。還呈現了有關合作和對抗互動的網絡的二分共識及固定時間/有限時間二分共識的有趣結果。
