is a precious traditional Chinese medicine that has been clinically used for over thousands of years. In general, ginseng needs to be prepared to ginseng decoction before taking it. MicroRNAs are a class of small (18-24 nt), single-stranded molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.

This paper investigates two formation control problems for a leader-follower network in 3-D. One is called the formation marching control problem, the objective of which is to steer the agents to maintain a target formation shape while moving with the synchronized velocity. The other one is called the formation rotating control problem, whose goal is to drive the agents to rotate around a common axis with a target formation.

We consider the control of formations of a leader-follower network, where the objective is to steer a team of multiple mobile agents into a formation of variable size. We assume that the shape description of the formation is known to all the agents, which is captured by a complex-valued Laplacian associated with the sensing graph, but the size scaling of the formation is not known or only known to two agents, called the leaders in the network. A distributed linear control strategy is developed in this paper such that the agents converge to the desired formation shape, for which the size of the formation is determined by the two leaders.
