— We describe decentralized algorithms by which a swarm of simple, independent, autonomous robots can build two-dimensional structures using square building blocks. These structu...
In this paper, we introduce a self-assembling and self-organizing artifact, called a swarm-bot, composed of a swarm of s-bots, mobile robots with the ability to connect to and to ...

Generally, swarm models and algorithms consider synchronous agents, i.e., they act simultaneously. This hypothesis does not fit multi-agent simulators nor robotic systems. In this...
Many sectors of the military are interested in Self-Organized (SO) systems because of their flexibility, versatility and economics. The military is researching and employing auto...
