Chapter 7. Mobile Self-healing Approaches

This chapter investigates different areas which may potentially relate to the system or territory healing and recovery, which are followed by examples of practical solutions there based on mobile spatial and cooperative methods. It briefs Spatial Grasp Technology (SGT) with its Spatial Grasp Language (SGL), and after reviewing air and missile defense (AMD) publications, it shows the chasing and destruction of hostile objects in SGL and investigates the phenomenon of killer cells by first reviewing related publications and then modeling their behavior in SGL. Collective movement of living cells as a worm is discussed by their simulation in SGL after reviewing worm publications. Another investigation is with swarms and their collective behavior by providing swarms review, military oriented including, and then expressing swarming with different levels of distributed awareness. Space junk removal with multiple satellite cleaners is investigated too by first reviewing existing data on numerous debris and then expressing discovery and removal of single and multiple junk items with SGT.
