A number of recent studies address systems of mobile autonomous robots from a distributed computing point of view. ...
First, deterministic crash-fault-tolerant algorithms are given for the problem in the asynchronous full-compass and semi-synchronous half-compass models, and a randomized algorithm is given for the semi-synchronous ...

Impossibility of gathering by a set of autonomous mobile robots
2007
Theoretical Computer Science
Given a set of n autonomous mobile robots that can freely move on a two dimensional plane, they are required to gather in a position on the plane not fixed in advance (Gathering Problem). ...
The studied robots are quite simple: they are anonymous, totally asynchronous, they do not have any memory of past computations, they cannot explicitly communicate between each other. ...
Acknowledgements I would like to thank Paola Flocchini, Nicola Santoro and Vincenzo Gervasi for the discussions and comments that helped with the writing of this paper. ...

A New Approach for Analyzing Convergence Algorithms for Mobile Robots
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Given a set of n mobile robots in the d-dimensional Euclidean space, the goal is to let them converge to a single not predefined point. ...
We consider the well-studied family of robotic capabilities where a robot can, upon activation, compute the positions of all other robots using an individual affine coordinate system. ...
The problem of having inaccurate compasses as a challenge for two robots is discussed in [SDY06] . [IKIW07] investigates even local compasses that vary over time. ...

Rendezvous of Two Robots with Constant Memory
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Among other things, we prove that, with rigid movements, finite-state robots can rendezvous in semi-synchronous settings, and finitecommunication robots are able to rendezvous even in asynchronous ones ...
We study the impact that persistent memory has on the classical rendezvous problem of two mobile computational entities, called robots, in the plane. ...
For example, the problem has a trivial solution if the robots are endowed with consistent compasses even if the system is fully asynchronous. ...

Optimal byzantine resilient convergence in oblivious robot networks
[article]
2009
arXiv
pre-print
Given a set of robots with arbitrary initial location and no agreement on a global coordinate system, convergence requires that all robots asymptotically approach the exact same, but unknown beforehand ...
In more details, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of mobile robots despite a subset of them being Byzantine (i.e. they can exhibit arbitrary behavior). ...
[10] proposed a gathering solution for oblivious robots with limited visibility in CORDA model, where robots share the knowledge of a common direction given by a compass. ...

It has been recently shown that rendezvous is possible even if the system is asynchronous (ASynch) if each robot is endowed with O(1) bits of persistent memory, can transmit O(1) bits in each cycle, and ...
We study the impact that persistent memory has on the classical rendezvous problem of two mobile computational entities, called robots, in the plane. ...

Collisionless Gathering of Robots with an Extent
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Gathering n mobile robots in one single point in the Euclidean plane is a widely studied problem from the area of robot formation problems. ...
We drop these assumptions and investigate a similar problem for robots with (a spherical) extent: the goal is to gather the robots as close together as possible. ...
Another example is [19] , where two robots gather with inaccurate compasses or [14] , where the compasses even vary over time. ...
