This paper investigates the consensus problem of the distributed multiagent system (MAS) with the small-world framework. A distributed consensus protocol is provided for the node-to-node communication. According to an error between every two neighbor agents, several consensus criteria among the agents are obtained firstly. Then, consensus criteria are obtained via the diameter of the graph of the MAS. Finally, based on the small-world framework, the consensus criteria are obtained; also, the relations among the consensus, the diameter of the path in the small-world framework, and the errors of agents are disclosed. Finally, one numerical example shows the reliability of the proposed methods.
