This paper studies self-organized flocking in a swarm of mobile robots. We present Kobot, a mobile robot platform developed specifically for swarm robotic studies, briefly describ...
Robotic swarm behavior is usually demonstrated using groups of robots, in which each robot in the swarm must possess full mobile capabilities, including the ability to control both...

Swarm is a storage system that provides scalable, reliable, and cost-effective data storage. Swarm is based on storage servers, rather than file servers; the storage servers are o...
Abstract. This proof of concept study examines the possibility of specifying the construction of programs using a Particle Swarm algorithm, and represents a new form of automatic p...
Abstract. Swarm Intelligence (SI) is the property of a system whereby the collective behaviors of (unsophisticated) entities interacting locally with their environment cause cohere...

Abstract— We are developing a swarm-intelligent inspection system based on a swarm of autonomous, miniature robots, using only on-board, local sensors. To estimate intrinsic adva...
— We address the problem of modeling and controlling a swarm of fully actuated point-like robots in three dimensions by generalizing the planar framework from [1]. We define a e...
Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) can be used for designing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms that work, in some cases, considerably better than the human-designed ones. By...
— Assume a swarm of mobile robots is in the act of transporting a large object in the plane, by applying unilateral forces to the perimeter of that object. We address the questio...
Two new variants of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) called AMPSO1 and AMPSO2 are proposed for global optimization problems. Both the algorithms use adaptive mutation using Beta ...
