  • Abstract
    We identify a novel class of distributed optimization problems, namely a networked version of abstract linear programming. For such problems we propose distributed algorithms for networks with various connectivity and/or memory constraints. Finally, we show how various minimum-time formation control problems can be tackled through appropriate geometric examples of abstract linear programs.
