A Meta-Agent Based Approach to Exploit the Collective Product of Mobile Cyber-Physical Collectives
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022 A cyber-physical system (CPS) is a system with integrated computational and physical abilities. Deriving the notion of cyber-physical collective (CPC) from a social view of CPS, we consider the nodes of a CPS as individuals (agents) that interact to ...
