Designing efficient control strategies is well studied. Due to recent technological advancements and applications to the field of robotics, exploring ways to design optimal control for multi robot systems is gaining interest. In this respect, ergodicity has been successfully applied as an effective control technique for tracking and coverage ...

Musical Flocks is a project in the field of music visualization. It produces animations by simulating the behavior of agents that react to the sound of music. Additionally, swarm-like behavior is attained by following the rules of separation, alignment and cohesion (Reynolds, 1987).

Flocks and partial flocks of quadrics: a survey
Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 2001Let \({\mathcal Q}\) be an elliptic quadric, a hyperbolic quadric or a quadratic cone of PG\((3,q)\). A flock of \({\mathcal Q}\) is a set of pairwise disjoint irreducible conics on \({\mathcal Q}\) of order \(q-1,q+1,q\) respectively. The concept of flock has been extended also to cones of PG\((3,q)\) with base an oval or a hyperoval.

k-Arcs, Hyperovals, Partial Flocks and Flocks
Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 1996This is a survey of results on the objects of the title. A \(k\)-arc in a projective plane is a set of \(k\) points, no three of which are collinear. In a finite projective plane of order \(q\), an oval is a \(k\)-arc with \(k= q+1\). If \(k= q+2\), the \(k\)-arc is a hyperoval. Hyperovals can exist only if \(n\) is even.

Proceedings of the twenty-sixth annual symposium on Computational geometry, 2010
The convergence time for flocking in the Vicsek-Cucker-Smale model is known to be bounded by a tower-of-twos of height linear in the number of birds. We improve the height to logarithmic, which matches the known lower bound. In the process, we introduce an intriguing geometric object, the "flight net", and develop the idea of a "virtual agent." These ...

International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2009
This study investigates the pros and cons of flocking in long-range "migration" of mobile robot swarms under the influence of different factors. We present a flocking behavior consisting of three simple behaviors: heading alignment, proximal control, and alignment to the desired homing direction.

Flock Replacement Programs and Flock Recycling
2002A well-designed and executed replacement program is one of the best guarantees of success in the egg industry today. The choices of programs are many, with a number of different economic outcomes. The use of recycling (induced molting) may or may not be economically feasible at any given time, and must be justified based on the cost of inputs ...
