- Distributed decision making
- Swarm robotic systems
- Emergent collective behaviors
- Hybrid symbiotic teams (humans and robots, animals and robots)
- Learning and adaptation in teams of robots
- Modular robotics
- Localization and navigation in multi-robot systems
- Distributed cooperative perception / action / planning
- Control issues in multi-robot systems
- Performance metrics for robot teams
- Sensor and actuator networks
- Communication / Interactions in multi-robot systems
- Wireless and robotic sensor networks
- Architectures for teams of robots
- Multi-robot applications in exploration, inspection, coverage, search and rescue, service, environmental monitoring, foraging, construction, etc.
