In this talk, I will first highlight the challenges related to the design, control, evaluation, optimization, and scalability of distributed robotic systems. In particular, I will describe selected distributed intelligent algorithms and corresponding model-based and data-based methods we have developed in order to analyze and optimize their performances. I will support the discussion with a few recent case studies concerned with distributed sensing and manipulation missions, in particular using miniature robots. In the second part of the talk, I will first extrapolate a few lessons we learned from distributed robotics and show how some of the methods developed can be applied to further domains of interest in the broader area of distributed, intelligent systems ranging from sensor and actuators networks to micro- and nano-systems.
