In this paper, we introduce the concept of group-level behavioral switch (GLBS) in a robot swarm. We consider two distinct types of GLBS that differ in whether or not the individual robots in the group need to switch their behavior at the same time: the Synchronous GLBS (S-GLBS) and the Asynchronous GLBS (A-GLBS). To implement these GLBSs, we propose a blockchain-based solution built on the Ethereum platform. We then study its performance in terms of required time and success rate in a series of simulation experiments.

Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the concept of group-level behavioral switch (GLBS) in a robot swarm. We consider two distinct types of GLBS that differ in whether or not the individual robots in the group need to switch their behavior at the same time: the Synchronous GLBS (S-GLBS) and the Asynchronous GLBS (A-GLBS). To implement these GLBSs, we propose a blockchain-based solution built on the Ethereum platform. We then study its performance in terms of required time and success rate in a series of simulation experiments.File in questo prodotto:
