On Formal Specification of Emergent Behaviours in Swarm Robotic Systems
It is a characteristic of swarm robotics that specifying overall emergent swarm behaviours in terms of the low-level behaviours of individual robots is very difficult.

Performance Assessment of Swarm Robots [PDF]
Swarm intelligence is the emergent collective intelligence of groups of simple autonomous agents which are autonomous subsystems that interact with their environment. This paper presents a performance evaluation system for swarm robots. The model proposed includes a set of performance assessment criteria and performance assessment and monitoring system.

Collective behavior observed in nature has been actively employed in swarm robotics. In order to better respond to external cues, the agents in such systems organize themselves in an ordered structure based on simple local rules.

Swarm Robotics: The Coordination of Robots via Swarm Intelligence Principles [PDF]
Swarm intelligence is the discipline that deals with natural and artificial systems composed of many individuals that coordinate using decentralized control and self-organization. The discipline focuses on the collective behaviors that result from the local interactions of the individuals with each other and with their environment.

Evolution of Collective Behaviors for a Real Swarm of Aquatic Surface Robots.
Swarm robotics is a promising approach for the coordination of large numbers of robots. While previous studies have shown that evolutionary robotics techniques can be applied to obtain robust and efficient self-organized behaviors for robot swarms, most ...

A Musical Framework with Swarming Robots [PDF]
In this paper, we describe an approach to a musical framework with interactions among numerous physical autonomous devices. The devices behave as metaphors of life and self-organize sounds and rhythm. Users can manipulate the system by affecting the interactions of the devices. We implemented the system as two different installations.

Swarm Robotic Behaviors and Current Applications
In swarm robotics multiple robots collectively solve problems by forming advantageous structures and behaviors similar to the ones observed in natural systems, such as swarms of bees, birds, or fish.

Swarm Body: Embodied Swarm Robots
The 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 ...

Human Management of a Robotic Swarm [PDF]
This paper proposes a management algorithm that allows a human operator to organize a robotic swarm via a robot leader. When the operator requests a robot to become a leader, nearby robots suspend their activities. The operator can then request a count of the robots, and assign them into subgroups, one for each task.
