This work addresses the gathering problem for a set of autonomous, anonymous, and homogeneous robots with limited visibility operating in a continuous circle. The robots are initially placed at distinct positions, forming a rotationally…
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…
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…
This paper studies the gathering problem for a set of $N \ge 2$ autonomous mobile robots operating in the Euclidean plane under the distributed Look-Compute-Move model. We consider oblivious robots executing under the adversarial defected…
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…
We study the problem \emph{Gathering} for $n$ autonomous mobile robots in synchronous settings with a persistent memory called \emph{light}. It is well known that Gathering is impossible in the basic model ($OBLOT$) where robots have no…
Gathering is a fundamental coordination problem in cooperative mobile robotics. In short, given a set of robots with arbitrary initial locations and no initial agreement on a global coordinate system, gathering requires that all robots,…
This paper revisits the widely researched \textit{gathering} problem for two robots in a scenario which allows randomization in the asynchronous scheduling model. The scheduler is considered to be the adversary which determines the…
Consider a group of autonomous mobile computational entities called robots. The robots move in the Euclidean plane and operate according to synchronous $Look$-$Compute$-$Move$ cycles. The computational capabilities of the robots under 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…
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…
We consider n robots with limited visibility: each robot can observe other robots only up to a constant distance denoted as the viewing range. The robots operate in discrete rounds that are either fully synchronous (FSync) or…
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…
This paper addresses the mutual visibility problem for a set of semi-synchronous, opaque robots occupying distinct positions in the Euclidean plane. Since robots are opaque, if three robots lie on a line, the middle robot obstructs the…
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…
The traditional distributed model of autonomous, homogeneous, mobile point robots usually assumes that the robots do not create any visual obstruction for the other robots, i.e., the robots are see through. In this paper, we consider a…
In the general pattern formation (GPF) problem, a swarm of simple autonomous, disoriented robots must form a given pattern. The robots' simplicity imply a strong limitation: When the initial configuration is rotationally symmetric, only…
We study the \textit{min-sum uniform coverage} problem for a swarm of $n$ mobile robots on a given finite line segment and on a circle having finite positive radius, where the circle is given as an input. The robots must coordinate their…
In distributed computing by mobile robots, robots are deployed over a region, continuous or discrete, operating through a sequence of \textit{look-compute-move} cycles. An extensive study has been carried out to understand the computational…
An autonomous mobile robot system is a distributed system consisting of mobile computational entities (called robots) that autonomously and repeatedly perform three operations: Look, Compute, and Move. Various problems related to autonomous…
