      abstract = {This book highlights cooperative coverage control  approaches of multi-agent systems in uncertain environments  and their applications in various fields. A novel  theoretical formulation of multi-agent coverage is proposed  to fulfill the coverage task via divide-and-conquer scheme.  By taking workload partition and sweeping operations  simultaneously, a distributed sweep coverage algorithm of  multi-agent systems is developed to cooperatively complete  the workload on the given region, and its input-to-state  stability is guaranteed in theory. Moreover, the coverage  performance is evaluated by estimating the error between  the actual coverage time and the optimal time. Three  application scenarios are presented to demonstrate the  advantages of cooperative coverage control approaches in  missile interception, intelligent transportation systems  and environment monitoring, respectively.},
