Self-organisation in robot swarms can produce collective behaviours, particularly through
spatial self-organisation. For example, it can be used to ensure that the robots in a swarm …

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) may become the future of military aviation as technology
advances, especially sensors and miniaturization techniques. Currently, however, UAVs are …

This paper presents an artificial ant colony approach to distributed sensor wakeup control
(SWC) in wireless sensor networks (WSN) to accomplish the joint task of surveillance and …

Swarming and emergent behaviour techniques can offer simple control schemes for the
organisation of many nodes, with little communications overhead and processing time …

Given simple agent rules, a swarm's emergent behavior can be difficult to predict. The
inverse problem is even more difficult: Given a desired emergent behavior, what are the …

The failure of complex artificial intelligence (AI) systems seems ubiquitous. To provide a
model to describe these shortcomings, we define complexity in terms of a system's sensors …

One of the benefits of using Combs disjunctive control in swarm intelligence is the ability of
the swarm to continue to operate even when one or more of its sensors are broken. Instead …

During operations, networks are typically analysed in terms of metrics such as throughput,
delay and connectivity. Analysis and optimisations can be carried out on these metrics to …

Swarms are collections of loosely coupled distinct agents each following simple rules.
Swarms do not use central coordination AND individual agents need not be aware of the …
