群体系统由许多相对简单的代理组成，这些代理之间相互作用以提供复杂的行为。这种群体系统本质上是并行的，但迄今为止，很少有工作集中于开发可能利用这种并行性的特定硬件平台。本文通过雷诺物体的案例研究，提出了一个用于实现群体系统模拟的硬件平台。我们的平台提供灵活的去中心化智能总线通信架构，旨在为硬件平台上的代理之间提供有效的通信。
Swarm systems consist of a number of relatively simple agents that interact with each other to afford a complex behaviour. Such swarm systems are inherently parallel but as yet little work has focussed on the development of specific hardware platforms that might take advantage of such parallelism. This paper proposes a hardware platform for the implementation of swarm system simulations, using a case study of Reynolds' boids. Our platform provides a flexible decentralised intelligent bus communication architecture designed to provide effective communication between agents on a hardware platform.
