When many mobile robots should achieve cooperation, local communication system is considered appropriate from the standpoint of the cost and capacity of communication. This paper ...
We demonstrate how multiagent systems provide useful control techniques for modular self-reconfigurable (metamorphic) robots. Such robots consist of many modules that can move rel...
