Efficient Self-stabilizing Simulations of Energy-Restricted Mobile Robots by Asynchronous Luminous Mobile Robots

In this study, we explore efficient simulation implementations to demonstrate computational equivalence across various models of autonomous mobile robot swarms. Our focus is on Rsynch, a scheduler designed for energy-restricted robots, which falls between Fsynch and Ssynch. We propose efficient protocols for simulating \(n(\ge 2)\) luminous ( \({\mathcal {LUMI}}\) ) robots operating in Rsynch using \({\mathcal {LUMI}}\) robots in Ssynch or Asynch. Additionally, we confirm that all our proposed simulation protocols are self-stabilizing, ensuring functionality from any initial configuration.
