Discussion of papers

Viscek

This is the paper that Ali cites and so everyone cites it. In the physics community, this is cited correctly. In controls, this paper is often credited with things that aren't really in the paper. Deals with alignment in flocking behavior.

Position of agenda matters (who are your neighbors). Uses a completely nonlinear protocol as his alignment rule. Agents move with velocity v in the plan. Looks at effects of change in density and change in noise.
