Enabling Urgency-aware Robot Swarm Intralogistics using Smart IoT Tags
Youssef Alboraei, Murray Groves, Shane Wen +6
Warehouse items differ in how urgently they must be moved: perishable goods, pharmaceutical shipments, and just-in-time production materials must be delivered sooner than the rest…
Emergent Culture in Minimal LLM Systems
Simon Jones, Sabine Hauert
What happens when LLM agents operate with no context outside a turn, minimal prompting, and simple tools? Inspired by swarm engineering, we give collectives of three agents the abi…
Lifelong Evolution of Swarms
Lorenzo Leuzzi, Simon Jones, Sabine Hauert +2
Adapting to task changes without forgetting previous knowledge is a key skill for intelligent systems, and a crucial aspect of lifelong learning. Swarm controllers, however, are ty…
Distributed Spatial Awareness for Robot Swarms
Simon Jones, Sabine Hauert
Building a distributed spatial awareness within a swarm of locally sensing and communicating robots enables new swarm algorithms. We use local observations by robots of each other…
