Flocking-oriented control of a fleet of autonomous vehicles

In this project, it is presented a theoretical framework for design and analysis of distributed flocking algorithms. A certain article is chosen as a role model to follow and improve though all the project. Several functions are implemented which provide fundamental aspects of flocking to the modelling. A first approach of the article mentioned is reproduced by recreating the main functions described and analyzed, the simulations performed prove successfully the previous described flocking behavior. Moreover, several functions are added to give the model a more vehicle-oriented approach. Obstacles, road limits and species are created to provide a certain context to the modelling which recreates circuit and their fundamental aspects. The whole process is stepwise analyzed and every little improvement is shown its consequences fully developed. Finally, the initial and final are compared and simulations are created to indicate the upgrades achieved
