DESCRIPTION:
The framework the authors have established is very elegant and, if it catches on, this book could be the primary reference for this approach. From the Back Cover"This book covers its subject very thoroughly. Murray, California Institute of Technology"The authors do an excellent job of clearly describing the problems and presenting rigorous, provably correct algorithms with complexity bounds for each problem. I don't know of any other book that covers this set of topics."--Richard M. The formalism used and the way of presenting the algorithms may be helpful for structuring the presentation of new algorithms in the future."--Vincent Blondel, Université catholique de Louvain
The book presents a broad set of tools for understanding coordination algorithms, determining their correctness, and assessing their complexity; and it analyzes various cooperative strategies for tasks such as consensus, rendezvous, connectivity maintenance, deployment, and boundary estimation. The book provides explanations of the basic concepts and main results, as well as numerous examples and exercises.Self-contained exposition of graph-theoretic concepts, distributed algorithms, and complexity measures for processor networks with fixed interconnection topology and for robotic networks with position-dependent interconnection topology Detailed t
"paper collection." according to stochasticmind. The book is a hasty paste and copy of algorithms used by the authors and others in technical papers. One more book which is nothing more than stapling of bunch of papers with a veneer of a useless introduction.
