Abstract: Abstract Formation control has received considerable attentions during the past two decades. Some applications like formation flight, transportation engineering, air traffic control, gaming, maneuvering in a hazardous environment, and environmental sampling have been listed in literature for formation control. Formation control in a multi-agent system (MAS) has many advantages [91]. For example, keeping formation increases robustness and efficiency of a system reduces the cost of a system, and results in better fault tolerance and capability of reconfiguration [6, 8, 9, 19, 140].
