Abstract :
In this paper, a hierarchical control design for multi-agent systems is considered, where the agents are guided by a simple abstract system. The simulation relations are discussed for coordination of multiple agents, and then distributed controls are proposed with switching topology for collective behaviors such as consensus tracking and formation with the help of simulation functions.
