Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1145/3492547.3492704
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In many applications, a group of autonomous mobile robots must follow a given trajectory while maintaining a certain geometric structure. If the motion in formation is properly organized, many advantages over traditional systems can be obtained: system cost can be reduced, system reliability and efficiency can be increased, while ensuring the reconfigurability and flexibility of the system's structure.
