In this paper we present a formulation of a swarm algorithm for some predefined formations and we show that using the control laws derived, the whole system is stable. Furthermore, the algorithm for the formation is implemented in microcontrollers, which effectively makes the experiment a system of systems. The only input for the algorithm is the position of the robot and the relative positions of...
Several swarm algorithms have been presented, but only few of them have been implemented in actual robots. In this paper we present an implementation of a swarm algorithm for some predefined formations. The algorithm is implemented in microcontrollers, which effectively makes the experiment a system of systems. The only input for the algorithm is the position of the robot and the relative positions...
The present defence and security environment has been increasingly recognized to be represented by complex systems. The complexity profile is a method for characterizing the complexity of a system. According to a modified version of Ashbys Law of Requisite Variety, a system designed to perform a complex task should have a complexity profile that matches the complexity profile of the task. This modified...
Medium Access Control (MAC) layer protocols are designed to control transmissions over shared mediums. Bi-directional Cable TV networks using Hybrid Fiber/Coazial (HFC) systems are good examples of broadcast environments where a MAC protocol is needed to allocate the multiaccess medium among the various nodes. One can think of a MAC protocol as a collection of components each performing a certain...
