Signal propagation in complex networks drives epidemics, is responsible for information
going viral, promotes trust and facilitates moral behavior in social groups, enables the …

The small battery capacities of the mobile robot and the un-optimized planning efficiency of
the industrial robot bottlenecked the time efficiency and productivity rate of coverage tasks in …

We present a survey on the application of fluid approximations, in the form of mean-field
models, to the design of control strategies in swarm robotics. Mean-field models that consist …

This paper presents an updated and broad review of swarm robotics research papers
regarding software, hardware, simulators and applications. The evolution from its concept to …

A robot swarm is a decentralized system characterized by locality of sensing and
communication, self-organization, and redundancy. These characteristics allow robot …

Area coverage is an important problem in robotics applications, which has been widely used
in search and rescue, offshore industrial inspection, and smart agriculture. This paper …

The demands from precision agriculture (PA) for high-quality information at the individual
plant level require to re-think the approaches exploited to date for remote sensing as …

In environments with scarce resources, adopting the right search strategy can make the
difference between succeeding and failing, even between life and death. At different scales …

Working with large swarms of robots has challenges in calibration, sensing, tracking, and
control due to the associated scalability and time requirements. Kilobots solve this through …

Research in swarm robotics has shown that robot swarms are effective in the exploration of
unknown environments. However, little work has been devoted to port the exploration …
