Summary:
In this paper, we propose a discrete version of distributed building model inspired by wasp colonies. We define fundamental event rules in a cellular world, and introduce an action rule of distributed autonomous agent. Robot decides its action rule following by the local configuration, without any communication between agents. Then we show that the robot build characteristic architecture in some rule.
