Exploring The Borderlands Of The Gathering Problem

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer, Vladislav Tempez

Problems of pattern formation have been extensively studied in distributed computing. One of this problems is the gathering problem: agents must gather at a same position in a distributed manner. When gathering is not possible, a close problem is the conve ...

Dynamic Safe Interruptibility for Decentralized Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer, Hadrien Hendrikx

In reinforcement learning, agents learn by performing actions and observing their outcomes. Sometimes, it is desirable for a human operator to \textit{interrupt} an agent in order to prevent dangerous situations from happening. Yet, as part of their learni ...

Collision-Free Pattern Formation

Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

Shoals of small fishes can change their collective shape and form a specific pattern. They do so efficiently (in parallel) and without collision. In this paper, we study the analog problem of distributed pattern formation. A set of processes needs to move ...

Byzantine Fireflies

Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

This paper addresses the problem of synchronous beeping, as addressed by swarms of fireflies. We present Byzantine-resilient algorithms ensuring that the correct processes eventually beep synchronously despite a subset of nodes beeping asynchronously. We a ...
