Preface
A multi-agent system is a system that consists of a large group of geographically distributed and networked autonomous agents, where each of them represents a strategic entity capable of perceiving and computing scientific data from a physical world through sensors and acting upon a physical plant through actuators. Multi-agent systems, which have several advantages including autonomy, flexibility, manipulability, and scalability, can achieve coordinated objectives, such as consensus estimation, target enclosing, and formation tracking by communicating with each other through communication networks. There are a broad range of applications of multi-agent systems in mobile robots, exploration of hazardous environments, military surveillance and reconnaissance, search and rescue in disaster sites, spacecraft formation flying, and modern critical infrastructure monitoring and controlling. Fixed-time cooperative control is currently a hot research topic in multi-agent systems since it can provide a guaranteed settling time, which does not depend on initial conditions. Compared with
