Self-organization of hierarchical structure on cellular robotic system

This paper deals with a self-organization of the group of multiple robotic systems, such as the cellular robotic system. Especially, in this paper, the authors present the self-organization of the hierarchical structure of the cellular robotic system as one of the group robotic systems. The structural organization is simulated based on the idea of interdependence between autonomous robots, which is derived from the model of group organization of humans. That is, the groups are organized and any leaders emerge from the interdependence in the individuals. This paper represents simulation results of self-organization of hierarchical structure on the basis of a given task model
