Space-Time Continuous Models of Swarm Robotic Systems
Book Description:
This book develops a generic model that predicts the behavior of sizeable self-organizing robot groups (robot swarms) based on their control algorithm in as much mathematical closed form as possible. In addition, extensive subsumption of the relatively young and distinctive interdisciplinary research field of swarm robotics is emphasized. The connection to many related areas is highlighted, and the concepts and methods borrowed from these fields are briefly described.
