   abstract    = {Unlike existing aerial swarm systems, we aim at
                 developing algorithms which do not require global or
                 relative positioning information concerning agents and
                 their neighbors. This alleviates the need for sensors
                 which require calibration, are expensive and heavy or
                 unusable because of environmental constraints. Rather
                 than positioning, MAVs rely only on simple sensors
                 (magnetic compass, speed sensor and altitude sensor) and
                 local communication with neighbors. Our endeavor is
                 motivated by an application whereby Micro Air Vehicles
                 (MAVs) must organize autonomously to establish a robust
                 communication network between users located on ground.
                 Such a system is aimed towards the rapid and easy
                 deployment of communication networks in disaster areas.},
