In the gathering problem, n autonomous robots have to meet on a single point. We consider the gathering of a closed chain of point-shaped, anonymous robots on a grid. The robots only have local knowledge about a constant number of…
In this paper, we solve the local gathering problem of a swarm of $n$ indistinguishable, point-shaped robots on a two dimensional grid in asymptotically optimal time $\mathcal{O}(n)$ in the fully synchronous $\mathcal{FSYNC}$ time model.…
We consider a swarm of $n$ autonomous mobile robots, distributed on a 2-dimensional grid. A basic task for such a swarm is the gathering process: All robots have to gather at one (not predefined) place. A common local model for extremely…
The gathering over meeting nodes problem asks the robots to gather at one of the pre-defined meeting nodes. The robots are deployed on the nodes of an anonymous two-dimensional infinite grid which has a subset of nodes marked as meeting…
We consider a swarm of $n$ robots in \mathbb{R}^d. The robots are oblivious, disoriented (no common coordinate system/compass), and have limited visibility (observe other robots up to a constant distance). The basic formation task gathering…
Gathering is a fundamental coordination problem in swarm robotics, where the objective is to bring robots together at a point not known to them at the beginning. While most research focuses on continuous domains, some studies also examine…
In this paper, we consider the gathering problem of seven autonomous mobile robots on triangular grids. The gathering problem requires that, starting from any connected initial configuration where a subgraph induced by all robot nodes…
In the field of swarm robotics, one of the most studied problem is Gathering. It asks for a distributed algorithm that brings the robots to a common location, not known in advance. We consider the case of robots constrained to move along…
A swarm of anonymous oblivious mobile robots, operating in deterministic Look-Compute-Move cycles, is confined within a circular track. All robots agree on the clockwise direction (chirality), they are activated by an adversarial…
This work focuses on the following question related to the Gathering problem of $n$ autonomous, mobile robots in the Euclidean plane: Is it possible to solve Gathering of robots that do not agree on any axis of their coordinate systems…
Consider a system of autonomous mobile robots initially randomly deployed on the nodes of an anonymous finite grid. A gathering algorithm is a sequence of moves to be executed independently by each robot so that all robots meet at a single…
In this paper we study the Near-Gathering problem for a finite set of dimensionless, deterministic, asynchronous, anonymous, oblivious and autonomous mobile robots with limited visibility moving in the Euclidean plane in Look-Compute-Move…
In this work, we initiate the research about the Gathering problem for robots with limited viewing range in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. In the Gathering problem, a set of initially scattered robots is required to gather at the…
We investigate gathering algorithms for asynchronous autonomous mobile robots moving in uniform ring-shaped networks. Different from most work using the Look-Compute-Move (LCM) model, we assume that robots have limited visibility and…
The Gathering problem for a swarm of robots asks for a distributed algorithm that brings such entities to a common place, not known in advance. We consider the well-known OBLOT model with robots constrained to move along the edges of a…
The problem of gathering multiple mobile robots to a single location, is one of the fundamental problems in distributed coordination between autonomous robots. The problem has been studied and solved even for robots that are anonymous,…
The gathering over meeting nodes problem requires the robots to gather at one of the pre-defined meeting nodes. This paper investigates the problem with respect to the objective function that minimizes the total number of moves made by all…
We study the Gathering problem for n autonomous mobile robots in semi-synchronous settings with persistent memory called light. It is well known that Gathering is impossible in a basic model when robots have no lights, if the system is…
An autonomous mobile robot system consisting of many mobile computational entities (called robots) attracts much attention of researchers, and to clarify the relation between the capabilities of robots and solvability of the problems is an…
We consider the gathering problem for asynchronous and oblivious robots that cannot communicate explicitly with each other, but are endowed with visibility sensors that allow them to see the positions of the other robots. Most of the…
