1.  trait LeaderBasedLib extends AnyRef

   This library provides the basic movement primitives for the leader-based movement.

   This library provides the basic movement primitives for the leader-based movement. It mainly consist in function for aligning, sinking, and spinning around a leader, i.e., a node that is responsible for the movement of a subset of the nodes. Indeed, the leader-based movements are based of G, therefore they create areas of influence around the leader.

2.  trait PatternFormationLib extends AnyRef

   a library for creating spatial patterns in the swarm.

   a library for creating spatial patterns in the swarm. The behaviour is based on the gradient of a potential field.

   Therefore, for creating a shape, it should exist a leader responsible for that shape.

   Team formation and pattern formation can be used together to create a shape with a team of nodes.

   Currently, the shapes supported are: line, circle, and v-shape.

3.  trait TeamFormationLib extends AnyRef

   This library provides the basic blocks to create logical teams, i.e., a subset of node that have a persistent common goal.

   This library provides the basic blocks to create logical teams, i.e., a subset of node that have a persistent common goal. One a team is formed, the nodes cannot leave it. Inside a team, there will be a logic influenced by the leader-based movement, i.e., the leader will be responsible for the movement of the team. This library provides a way to create this teams based on intra-distance and extra-distance. The foster is the distance between nodes that are in the same team. The latter is influence of the leader during the formation of the team.
