First, the asynchronous data sampling protocols and synchronous data sampling protocols are proposed, respectively. Then the discussions focus on deriving the necessary and sufficient conditions for data-sampling controllability of MASs with a single leader and multiple leaders. The criteria for data-sampling controllability are derived in terms of recursions of matrix multiplication. For the single-leader situation, the asynchronous data-sampling controllability is equivalently transformed to be the output controllability of a discrete linear system. For the multiple-leader situation, the asynchronous data-sampling controllability is equivalently transformed to be the output controllability of a discrete time-delayed linear system. Finally, the synchronous data-sampling controllability is discussed as a special case of asynchronous data-sampling controllability. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/imamci\/dnz026","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,25]],"date-time":"2019-08-25T03:13:46Z","timestamp":1566702826000},"page":"794-813","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Data-sampling controllability of multi-agent systems"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Bin","family":"Zhao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Systems and Control, College of Engineering, Peking University, Beijing, 100871, China"}]},{"given":"Yongqiang","family":"Guan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Complex Systems, School of Mechanical\u2013Electronic Engineering, Xidian University, Xi\u2019an, Shaanxi 710071, China"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021060110092427600_ref1","first-page":"65","article-title":"On the controllability of a sampled-data system under nonuniform sampling","volume-title":"International Conference on Emerging Technologies","author":"Ahmad","year":"2015"},{"key":"2021060110092427600_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1093\/imamci\/dnw069","article-title":"On the controllability of networks with nonidentical linear nodes","author":"Arreola-Delgado","year":"2016","journal-title":"IMA J.
