TL;DR: The utility of using-biomimicry of social foraging strategies to develop coordination strategies and the stability of vehicular swarms are studied to try to understand what types of communications are needed to achieve cooperative search and engagement.
Survey on Interoperability Measurement
TL;DR: This survey paper summarizes and focuses the current body of knowledge on interoperability measurement and identifies areas where further research is needed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Flight Test Results of Close Formation Flight for Fuel Savings
TL;DR: In this paper, the benefits of flying in a tight formation, mimicking the natural behavior of migratory birds such as geese, was explored, based on computational work, some reduction in drag for the wingman is predicted based on the amount of wingtip overlap with the leader.
The Interoperability Score
TL;DR: The methodology first defines a baseline measurement of interoperability for a non-homogeneous network of systems as they are used within an operational scenario or thread, then defines the theoretical optimum interoperability score and proposes some heuristics which can be used to improve overall network interoperability.
Journal ArticleDOI
An ontological framework for clarifying flexibility-related terminology via literature survey
TL;DR: A novel ontological framework is employed for clarifying salient aspects of extant flexibility‐related terminology to formulate a set of democratic definitions for flexibility, adaptability, and robustness, as well as recommended definitions for agility and versatility.
