Cooperative navigation in robotic swarms [PDF]
We study cooperative navigation for robotic swarms in the context of a general event-servicing scenario. In the scenario, one or more events need to be serviced at specific locations by robots with the required skills. We focus on the question of how the swarm can inform its members about events, and guide robots to event locations.

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.

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.

Comparison of Selection Methods in On-line Distributed Evolutionary Robotics [PDF]
In this paper, we study the impact of selection methods in the context of on-line on-board distributed evolutionary algorithms. We propose a variant of the mEDEA algorithm in which we add a selection operator, and we apply it in a taskdriven scenario. We

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 ...

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.
