Dynamic coordinated control laws in multiple agent models
, 2005 We present an active control scheme of a kinetic model of swarming. It has been shown previously that the global control scheme for the model, presented in \cite{JK04}, gives rise to spontaneous collective organization of agents into a unified coherent ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Input Efficiency for Influencing Swarm [PDF]
, 2012 Many cooperative control problems ranging from formation following, to rendezvous to flocking can be expressed as consensus problems. The ability of an operator to influence the development of consensus within a swarm therefore provides a basic test of ...

Swarm Body: Embodied Swarm Robots
Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThe human brain's plasticity allows for the integration of artificial body parts into the human body. Leveraging this, embodied systems realize intuitive interactions with the environment. We introduce a novel concept: embodied swarm robots. Swarm robots constitute a collective of robots working in harmony to achieve a common objective, in our case ...

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...
