Averaging algorithms and distributed anonymous discrete function computation

In distributed consensus and averaging algorithms, processors exchange and update certain values ("estimates" or "opinions") by forming a local average with the values of their neighbors. Under suitable conditions, such algorithms converge to consensus (every processor ends up ho...
