摘要： We review the state of art of current research on the consensus, or more general, the dynamics of complex networks. Then share some recent results on consensus of multi-agent system such as multi-agent network with general directed topology and random interconnection failure by characterizing the behavior of stochastic dynamical system with the corresponding time-averaged system. We also look at the applications of consensus to smart grid. We propose a second-order continuous-time algorithms to solve the economic power dispatch problem in smart grids. Also, consider the distributed optimal consensus over resource allocation network and its application to dynamical economic dispatch.
