We consider distributed systems of identical autonomous computational entities, called robots, moving and operating in the plane in synchronous Look-Compute-Move (LCM) cycles. The algorithmic capabilities of these systems have been…
In swarm robotics, a set of robots has to perform a given task with specified internal capabilities (model) and under a given adversarial scheduler. Relation between a model $M_1$ under scheduler $S_1$, and that of a model $M_2$ under…
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…
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…
In the field of distributed computing by robot swarms, the research comprehends manifold models where robots operate in the Euclidean plane through a sequence of look-compute-move cycles. Models under study differ for (i) the possibility of…
Research on distributed computing by a team of identical mobile computational entities, called robots, operating in a Euclidean space in $\mathit{Look}$-$\mathit{Compute}$-$\mathit{Move}$ ($\mathit{LCM}$) cycles, has recently focused on…
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…
We consider the fundamental benchmarking problem of gathering in an $(N,f)$-fault system consisting of $N$ robots, of which at most $f$ might fail at any execution, under asynchrony. Two seminal results established impossibility of a…
Consider a set of $n$ mobile entities, called robots, located and operating on a continuous circle, i.e., all robots are initially in distinct locations on a circle. The \textit{gathering} problem asks to design a distributed algorithm that…
Understanding the computational power of mobile robot systems is a fundamental challenge in distributed computing. While prior work has focused on pairwise separations between models, we explore how robot capabilities, light observability,…
The OBLOT model has been extensively studied in theoretical swarm robotics. It assumes weak capabilities for the involved mobile robots, such as they are anonymous, disoriented, no memory of past events (oblivious), and silent. Their only…
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 are given $N$ autonomous mobile robots inside a bounded region. The robots are opaque which means that three collinear robots are unable to see each other as one of the robots acts as an obstruction for the other two. They operate in…
We study the impact that persistent memory has on the classical rendezvous problem of two mobile computational entities, called robots, in the plane. It is well known that, without additional assumptions, rendezvous is impossible if the…
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…
An oblivious mobile robot is a stateless computational entity located in a spatial universe, capable of moving in that universe. When activated, the robot observes the universe and the location of the other robots, chooses a destination,…
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…
The deployment of artificial intelligence models at the edge is increasingly critical for autonomous robots operating in GPS-denied environments where local, resource-efficient reasoning is essential. This work demonstrates the feasibility…
The study of computing in presence of faulty robots in the Look-Compute-Move model has been the object of extensive investigation, typically with the goal of designing algorithms tolerant to as many faults as possible. In this paper, we…
We consider a distributed system of n identical mobile robots operating in the two dimensional Euclidian plane. As in the previous studies, we consider the robots to be anonymous, oblivious, dis-oriented, and without any communication…
