The book is about the key elements required for designing, building
and controlling effective artificial swarms comprised of multiple
moving physical agents. Therefore this book presents the
fundamentals of each of those key elements in the particular frame
of dynamic swarming, specifically exposing the profound connections
between these elements and establish some general design principles
for swarming behaviors. This scientific endeavor requires an
inter-disciplinary approach: biomimetic inspiration from ethology
and ecology, study of social information flow, analysis of temporal
and adaptive signaling network of interaction, considerations of
control of networked real-time systems, and lastly, elements of
complex adaptive dynamical systems. This book offers a completely
new perspective on the scientific understanding of dynamic
collective behaviors thanks to its multi-disciplinary approach and
its focus on artificial swarm of physical agents. Two of the key
problems in understanding the emergence of swarm intelligent
behaviors are identifying the social interaction rules a.k.a. the
behavioral algorithm and uncovering how information flows between
swarming agents. While most books about swarm dynamics have been
focusing on the former, this book emphasizes the much-less
discussed topic of distributed information flow, always with the
aim of establishing general design principles.
