      SWARMS of UAVs  2022
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hammamet, Tunisia, September 28th - 30th 2022

Website: https://iccci.pwr.edu.pl/2022/session.php?acronym=SUAV
============================================

You are cordially invited to submit your contribution until April 15th, 2022


This special session will be held during ICCCI 2022, the 14th International Conference on Computational Collective Intelligence (rank B in Core).


** Objectives and topics **
-----------------------------------

From theoretical models to deployment of real drones, UAV swarms have witnessed a growing interest last two decades. In the context of this special session, a swarm is considered as a set of autonomous machines presenting a collective behavior without relying on any centralized mechanism. This meeting aims at offering a forum for specialists or new comers to this domain. Measuring the distance that may exist between theory and practical experiments, and opening the discussion about potential solutions for reducing it is one of the objectives of this session. Researches at any maturity level as well as emerging new ideas or ongoing works from theoretical models to existing hardware solutions for enabling UAVs to fly as swarms are welcome. More generally, topics of interest for SUAV 2022 include (but are not limited to) the following topics :

— Theoretical Models (e.g. Look-Compute-Move)
— Distributed Algorithms
— Cooperation versus Competition
— Bio-Inspired Approaches
— Communication issues
— Optimization, Robustness, Fault Tolerance and Resilience
— Simulations
— Pattern Formation
— Environment Perception
— Technological Hardware/Software Solutions and Platforms
— Applications


** Submission **
----------------------

All contributions should be original and not published elsewhere or intended to be published during the review period. Authors are invited to submit their papers electronically in pdf format, through EasyChair. All the special sessions are centralized as tracks in the same conference management system as the regular papers. Therefore, to submit a paper please activate the following link and select the track : SUAV 2022: Special Session on Swarms of UAVs.
