A Network Connectivity Preventing Disruption Algorithm based on Agents

摘要

In the present study, a network of mobile agents moved in response to external commands to perform a data-gathering task, and a group of controlled agents prevented disruption of the connectivity of the communication network. HOSM observers reconstructed the external commands to the mobile agents, from which predicted positions of the agents were calculated within a given time window. Pairs of agents which were predicted to move beyond the maximum effective interaction range were then identified, and trajectories from the positions of the controlled agents to the midpoints of these pairs were generated.
