Abstract

In this paper we study the possibility of multi-agent systems application to the problem of swarm control. We describe the key features of swarm control and adaptive control strategy under uncertain conditions based on local voting algorithm. We also propose a consensus-based algorithm to control a swarm of dynamic objects.
