Resilience against misbehaving nodes in asynchronous networks

Abstract

When dealing with network systems, a fundamental challenge is to ensure their functioning even when some of the network nodes do not operate as intended due to faults or attacks. The objective of this paper is to address the problem of resilient consensus in a context where the nodes have their own clocks, possibly operating in an asynchronous way, and can make updates at arbitrary time instants. The results represent a first step towards the development of resilient event-triggered and self-triggered coordination protocols. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.</p
