This book constitutes the proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Swarm Intelligence, ANTS 2020, held online -due to COVID-19- in Barcelona Spain, in October 2020. The 20 full papers presented , together with 8 short papers and 5 extended abstracts were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions.

ANTS 2020 contributions are dealing with any aspect of swarm intelligence. 

This book of the SPAR series contains 39 scientific articles presented in the Distributed Autonomous Robotic Systems conference organized in November 28–30, 2022, in Montbéliard, France.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Swarm Intelligence, ANTS 2024, which took place in Konstanz, Germany, during October 9-11, 2024. 

The 14 full papers and 5 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. They deal with self-organizing processes both in nature and in artificial systems.

This book provides an introduction to Swarm Robotics, which is the application of methods from swarm intelligence to robotics. It goes on to present methods that allow readers to understand how to design large-scale robot systems by going through many example scenarios on topics such as aggregation, coordinated motion (flocking), task allocation, self-assembly, collective construction, and environmental monitoring. The author explains the methodology behind building multiple, simple robots and how the complexity emerges from the multiple interactions between these robots such that they are able to solve difficult tasks. The book can be used as a short textbook for specialized courses or as an introduction to Swarm Robotics for graduate students, researchers, and professionals who want a concise introduction to the field.

The 23 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. ARCS has always been a conference attracting leading-edge research outcomes in Computer Architecture and Operating Systems, including a wide spectrum of topics ranging from embedded and real-time systems all the way to large-scale and parallel systems.
