Abstract
The purpose of this survey is to give an overview of current state of the art
in swarm control. In swarms we consider the collective behavior of relatively
simple moving agents. The power of such systems is that simple behavior on the
local level may result in complex behavior on the global level that is useful
for specific applications. It will be investigated how the individual agents
should be modeled and under what kind of control law and conditions the agents
are capable of aggregating (self-organizing) to form particular structures with
the purpose of sensing and controlling distributed parameters of some process.
