“…Researchers have reflected that the metaphors of agents and the principles of multi-agent systems remain attractive for designing and engineering cyber-physical systems [10], given the increasing integration and the inherent uncertainties CPS face. In this regard, there have been multiple efforts to design CPS using MAS engineering methods.…”

Cyber-physical space systems are engineered systems operating within physical space with design requirements that depend on space, e.g., regarding location or movement behavior. They are built from and depend upon the seamless integration of computation and physical components. Typical examples include systems where software-driven agents such as mobile robots explore space and perform actions to complete particular missions. Design of such a system often depends on multiple concerns expressed by different stakeholders, capturing different aspects of the system. We propose a model-driven approach supporting (a) separation of concerns during design, (b) systematic and semi-automatic integration of separately modeled concerns, and finally (c) early validation via statistical model checking. We evaluate our approach over two different case studies of cyber-physical space systems.

“…In recent years, the coordination control of a MAS has become a hot research topic and has been widely applied in areas such as unmanned aerial vehicle systems, industrial internet of things and wireless sensor networks [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. Its research directions mainly include consensus control, formation control and flocking/swarming behavior.…”

Due to the openness of communication network and the complexity of system structures, multi-agent systems are vulnerable to malicious network attacks, which can cause intense instability to these systems. This article provides a survey of state-of-the-art results of network attacks on multi-agent systems. Recent advances on three types of attacks, i.e., those on DoS attacks, spoofing attacks and Byzantine attacks, the three main network attacks, are reviewed. Their attack mechanisms are introduced, and the attack model and the resilient consensus control structure are discussed, respectively, in detail, in terms of the theoretical innovation, the critical limitations and the change of the application. Moreover, some of the existing results along this line are given in a tutorial-like fashion. In the end, some challenges and open issues are indicated to guide future development directions of the resilient consensus of multi-agent system under network attacks.
