Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We discuss fundamental formation and agreement problems for autonomous, synchronous robots with limited visibility. Each robots is a mobile processor that, at each discrete time instant, observes the relative positions of those robots that are within distance V of itself, computes its new position using the given algorithm, and then moves to that position. The visibility of the robots is assumed to be limited to within distance V, for some constant V>0. The problems we discuss include the formation of a single point by the robots and agreement on a common x-y coordinate system and the initial distribution, and we present algorithms for these problems, and prove their correctness.
