| Abstract | There has been a wide interest in designing distributed algorithms for tiny robots. In particular, it has been shown that the robots can complete certain tasks even in the presence of faulty robots. In this paper, we focus on gathering of all non-faulty robots at a single point in presence of faulty robots. We propose a wait-free algorithm (i.e., no robot waits for other robots and algorithm instructs each robot to move in every step, unless it is already at the gathering location), that gathers all non-faulty robots in the semi-synchronous model without any agreement about the coordinate system and with weak multiplicity detection (i.e., a robot can detect if there are more than one robots at a point, but not their exact number) in the presence of at most n - 1 faulty robots for n ≥ 3. We show that the required capability for gathering robots is minimal in the above model, since relaxing it further makes gathering impossible to solve. Also, we introduce an intermediate scheduling model in between the asynchronous (i.e., no instantaneous movement or computation) and the semi-synchronous (i.e., both instantaneous movement and computation) as ASYNCIC, the asynchronous model with instantaneous computation. Then we propose another algorithm in ASYNCIC model for gathering all non-faulty robots with weak multiplicity detection without any agreement on the coordinate system in the presence of at most ⌊n/2⌋-2 faulty robots for n ≥ 7 starting from any configuration with at most one multiplicity excluding C* (0), C* (1/k), C* (1/2) and C* (1/2 + 1/k). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
