Swarm Robotics (SR) is closely related to Swarm Intelligence, and both were initially inspired by studies of social insects. Their guiding principles are based on their biological inspiration and take the form of an emphasis on decentralized local control and communication.

SWARM-BOT: an experiment in swarm robotics [PDF]
Proceedings 2005 IEEE Swarm Intelligence Symposium, 2005. SIS 2005., 2005 This paper provides an overview of the SWARM-BOTS project, a robotics project sponsored by the Future and Emerging Technologies program of the European Commission (IST-2000-31010). We describe the s-bot, a small autonomous robot with self-assembling capabilities that we designed and built within the project.

What is A Robot Swarm: A Definition for Swarming Robotics
2019 IEEE 10th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON), 2019The swarm, a type of multi-agent system, has enjoyed a recent surge in popularity within the autonomous robotics field. Despite a variety of theoretical and simulated research work in the area of swarm theory and multi-agent artificial intelligence, the practical use of swarms remains limited.

In many cases several mobile robots (autonomous agents) can be used together to accomplish tasks that would be either more difficult or impossible for a robot acting alone. Many different models have been suggested for the makeup of such collections of robots. In this paper the authors present a taxonomy of the different ways in which such a collection

Decentral control of a robot-swarm
Proceedings Autonomous Decentralized Systems, 2005. ISADS 2005., 2005In this paper, we present an approach to construct a universal architecture to control a team of autonomous robots. The suggested approach is robust against communication problems and robots' hardware failures. The system profits from its decentral architecture.

From Swarm Intelligence to Swarm Robotics
2005The term “swarm” has been applied to many systems (in biology, engineering, computation, etc.) as they have some of the qualities that the English-language term “swarm” denotes. With the growth of the various area of “swarm” research, the “swarm” terminology has become somewhat confusing.

Trophallaxis within a robotic swarm: bio-inspired communication among robots in a swarm
Autonomous Robots, 2007This article presents a bio-inspired communication strategy for large-scale robotic swarms. The strategy is based purely on robot-to-robot interactions without any central unit of communication. Thus, the emerging swarm regulates itself in a purely self-organized way.
