Abstract
This paper studies decentralized sequential detection systems. We formulate a simple algorithm where each local detector makes a decision based on its current inputs and past feedback information from the fusion center. From this formulation we then obtain some insight into the value of feedback information and the information lost from the decentralized system when compared to a centralized system
