Abstract
We investigate the use of self-assembly in a robotic system as a means of respondingto different environmental contingencies. Self-assembly is the mechanism through whichagents in a multi-robot system autonomously form connections with one another to createlarger composite robotic entities. Initially, we consider a simple response mechanismthat uses stochastic self-assembly without any explicit control over the resulting morphologyDoctorat en Sciences de l'ingénieurinfo:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublishe
