Collective construction of environmentally-adaptive structures
— We describe decentralized algorithms by which a swarm of simple, independent, autonomous robots can build two-dimensional structures using square building blocks. These structu...

Evolving Self-Organizing Behaviors for a Swarm-Bot
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 ...

Influence of different execution models on patrolling ant behaviors: from agents to robots
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...
