Flocking of Multi-Agents With a Virtual Leader (2009, background): “Recently, there has also been a surge of interest among control theorists in flocking problems, partly due to the wide applications of flocking in many control areas including cooperative control of mobile robots and design of mobile sensor networks [11]–[13].”
Sliding-Mode Formation Control for Cooperative Autonomous Mobile Robots (2008, neutral): “Various control strategies for mobile robot formations have been reported in the literature, including behaviorbased methods [3], [4], virtual structure techniques [2], [5], and leader–follower schemes [1], [6]–[9].”
Flocking of multi-agents with a virtual leader part I: with a minority of informed agents (2007, background): “Recently, there has also been a surge of interest among control theorists in flocking problems, partly due to the wide applications of flocking in many control areas including cooperative control of mobile robots and design of mobile sensor networks [11]–[13].”

Formation Control and Collision Avoidance for Multi-agent Non-holonomic Systems: Theory and Experiments (2008, methodology): “Some of the existing approaches, as highlighted by Tanner (2004), include the behavior-based approaches of Balch and Arkin (1998), where an interaction law between the subsystems is defined that leads to the emergence of a collective behavior.”
Bounded Controllers for Formation Stabilization of Mobile Agents With Limited Sensing Ranges (2007, background): “[3] and [4]), and use of virtual structures (e.”
Observer-Based Leader-Following Formation Control Using Onboard Sensor Information (2008, background): “Many other papers, for instance, [2]–[11], also treat formation control of multiple mobile robots with unicycle dynamics, but a problem is that the majority of the existing results require the measurement of the speed of the leader (or the neighbor to be followed) in an inertially fixed coordinate s”
Distributed Coordination Control of Multiagent Systems While Preserving Connectedness (2007, neutral): “In contrast, the other approach to formation control is the leaderless approach [22], [23].”
