Swarm Architecture

Swarm architecture focuses on designing and controlling groups of robots (or agents) to achieve collective tasks exceeding individual capabilities, often inspired by natural swarms. Current research emphasizes developing robust and scalable algorithms for collective decision-making, task allocation, and communication, particularly within resource-constrained environments like those involving low-cost aerial robots or microrobots. These advancements are driving progress in diverse fields, including disaster response, environmental monitoring, and manufacturing, by enabling the deployment of flexible, adaptable, and cost-effective robotic systems. Furthermore, data-driven modeling techniques are being explored to better understand and predict swarm behavior, bridging the gap between theoretical models and real-world applications.
