| The TAM: abstracting complex tasks in swarm robotics research
|30-11-2015
| Arne Brutschy, Lorenzo Garattoni,Manuele Brambilla,Gianpiero Francesca,Giovanni Pini,Marco Dorigo and Mauro Birattari
|Jesse, Alex, Simon and Guus
| Proposes an approach to abstract complex tasks in swarm robotics research, using TAM.
|Making a specific planning for the rest of the case and tried to find Harry van de Loo in order to ask about the availability of the mindstorm robots.

|Ad Hoc Communication in Teams of Mobile Robots Using ZigBee Technology
|AMADEU FERNANDES, MICAEL S. COUCEIRO, DAVID PORTUGAL, JOAO MACHADO SANTOS, RUI P. ROCHA
|The main aim of this paper is to implement and validate ad hoc wireless
communication functions between robotic teammates using the ZigBee technology.

|The task allocation model based on repuattion for the heterogeneous multi-robot collaboration system
|Zhiguo Shi, Jumming Wei, Xujian Wei, et. al.
|Article about assigning reputation to members on the swarm. Not useful to us, but has some nice references I want to check out.

|A Model of Rescue Task in Swarm Robots System
|Liu B, Chen P, Wang G, et. al.
|Heavily inspired by the behaviour of ants:<br>
 
It describes a system in which a large swarm of robots moves pieces of "ruin piles" to "free space" communicating - inspired by the workings of an ant colony - by "feromones" which guide the robots to the piles and which decide the probability of a certain robot being assigned to a specific pile.<br>
 
Strongly related<br>
Doesn't seem to consider more than one robot moving the same object so still have to do that ourselves <br>
works much better for very large swarms<br>

|-
|Blackboard Mechanism Based Ant Colony Theory for Dynamic Deployment of Mobile Sensor Networks
|Qi G, Song P, Li K, et. al.
|Uses the "blackboard" approach to pheromones which is interesting since we probably don't want to use s physical pheromone, but a pheromone approach does seem to be highly applicable to our case<br>
 
has a lot of interesting references and also gives some nice details about path-finding using the pheromone approach.

|Optimality of collective choices: a stochastic approach
|Nicolis S, Detrain C, Demolin D, et. al.
|(referenced by [Liu, Chen, Wang]) It's the description of the behaviour of ants on which the model in [Liu, Cheng, Wang] is based. It also gives optimal choices for pheromones.

|-
|A hierarchical approach for primitive-based motion planning and control of autonomous vehicles
|Grymin D, Neas C, Farhood M, et. al.
|This is about finding a path to a goal. Useful since whenever a goal is first established by our swarm, we will need to find a good path (once)

|Social Cognitive Maps, Swarm Collective Perception and Distributed Search on Dynamic Landscapes
|Ramos V, Fernandes C, Rosa A, et. al.
|Lengthy introduction which gives a more philosophical view of the connection between swarm intelligence and intelligence in general.<br>
 
Paper itself seems to give more details about how the pheromone concept can be used.<br>
 
Also mentions an other algorithm (Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm) which we might want to check out, and has references to possibly useful Matlab code.
