Abstract
The previous chapter dealt with the application of a GSO variant to ubiquitous computing environments. Stationary sources were considered in all the previous chapters. However, in this chapter, the behavior of GSO agents in the presence of mobile sources is investigated. In particular, a coordination scheme based on GSO is developed that enables a swarm of glowworms to pursue a group of mobile signal sources. Examples of such sources include hostile mobile targets in a battlefield and moving fire-fronts that are created in forest fires. We assume that the mobile source radiates a signal whose intensity peaks at the source location and decreases monotonically with distance from the source.
