The application of a swarm approach in technical systems of higher reliability.

An algorithm for coordinating commands for executing devices according to the "two out of three" reliability scheme, which can be used in technical systems, as a way to increase reliability when generating critical hardware level commands, is proposed. The developed algorithm has linear complexity. During the experiments, varying the number of executing devices from 1 to 100, an assessment was made of the number of coordination failures and the time required to coordinate one command, in the case when the communication line between logic controllers and executing devices is considered safe.
