In wireless sensor and IoT networks dedicated to smart-cities, a leader node performs critical
tasks such as generating encryption/decryption keys. In this paper, the leader is the node …

Abstract Wireless Sensor Network applications profit from or necessitate the use of leaders,
elected on the basis of some quantifiable and comparable criteria. Hence, a panoply of …

In swarm decision making, hand-crafting agents' rules that use local information to achieve
desirable swarm-level behaviours is a non-trivial design problem. Instead of relying entirely …

Boundaries and Hulls of Euclidean Graphs: From Theory to Practice presents concepts and
algorithms for finding convex, concave and polygon hulls of Euclidean graphs. It also …

Human-swarm interaction (HSI) is a research area that studies how human and swarm
capabilities can be combined to successfully perform tasks that exceed the performance …

Consensus achievement is a class of problems in which a group of agents, such as a
swarm, needs to collectively reach a common decision to select one of the available options …

Swarm collective decision making refers to the case where a swarm needs to make a
decision based on different pieces of evidence collected by its individuals. This problem has …

In collective decision-making, designing algorithms that use only local information to effect
swarm-level behaviour is a non-trivial problem. We used machine learning techniques to …

This paper presents a deterministic and indulgent algorithm for leader election. Our
algorithm is adapted to large-scale systems with the primary objective of faster execution …

One of the interesting techniques for leader election is used in the WBS (Wait Before
Starting) algorithm, in which each node in the network will wait for a time corresponding to its …
