— We design sensing algorithms and a control law for a group of mobile robots to follow a boundary curve without utilizing a global positioning system (GPS). The sensing algorith...
— This paper proposes distributed control laws for maintaining the shape of a formation of mobile autonomous agents in the plane for which the desired shape is defined in terms ...

We present two swarm intelligence control mechanisms used for distributed robot path formation. In the first, the robots form linear chains. We study three variants of robot chains...
We consider the role of topological dimension in problems of network consensus and vehicular formations where only local feedback is available. In particular, we consider the simpl...

Software systems are subject to ever increasing complexity and in need of efficient structuring. The concept of organization as an exand abstract real-world reference presents a pr...
