We consider a dynamically decoupled network of agents each with a local\noutput-feedback controller. We assume each agent is a node in a directed\nacyclic graph and the controllers share information along the edges in order to\ncooperatively optimize a global objective. We develop explicit state-space\nformulations for the jointly optimal networked controllers that highlight the\nrole of the graph structure. Specifically, we provide generically minimal\nagent-level implementations of the local controllers along with intuitive\ninterpretations of their states and the information that should be transmitted\nbetween controllers.\n
