De la contraportada

This book is intended for the fields of control engineering and swarm coordination. It introduces the fundamental methods and application technologies of a novel multi-agent system—reconfigurable swarms—in formation coordination, reconfiguration docking, task scheduling, and multi-modality control. The proposed overall control methodologies are validated through MATLAB simulations and physical experiments, offering effective theoretical and technical guidance for the emerging area of multi-modality control in reconfigurable swarm systems. This book is suitable for engineering professionals engaged in swarm systems and control technologies, and can also serve as a valuable reference for researchers in related academic institutions.
