A scalable distributed algorithm for shape transformation in multi-robot systems

Distributed reconfiguration is an important problem in multi-robot systems such as mobile sensor nets and metamorphic robot systems. In this work, we present a scalable distributed reconfiguration algorithm, hierarchical median decomposition, to achieve arbitrary target configurations. Our algorithm...
