Abstract
Swarm robotics is a number of small robots that are synchronically works together to accomplish a given task. Swarm robotics faces many problems in performing a given task. The problems are pattern formation, aggregation, Chain formation, self-assembly, coordinated movement, hole avoidance, foraging and self-deployment. Foraging is most essential part in swarm robotics. Foraging is the task to discover the item and get back into the shell. The researchers conducted foraging experiments with random-movement of robots and they have end up with unique solutions. Most of the researchers have conducted experiments using the circular arena. The shell is placed at the centre of the arena and environment boundary is well known. In this study, an attempt is made to different strategic movements like straight line approach, parallel line approach, divider approach, expanding square approach, and parallel sweep approach. All these approaches are to be simulated by using player/stage open-source simulation software based on C and C++ programming language in Linux operating system. Finally statistical comparison will be done with task completion time of all these strategies using ANOVA to identify the significant searching strategy.
Highlights
In current environment more people are subjected into hazardous work such as toxic waste clean-up, demining, search and rescue
They have not concentrated on various strategic movements of robots such as expanding square approach, expanding square with divider policy, parallel sweep approach and parallel sweep with divider policy

Summary
In current environment more people are subjected into hazardous work such as toxic waste clean-up, demining, search and rescue In such a work the reliability of human life is relatively too low. The group of small robots will accomplish the task at very faster and efficient manner For this task accomplishment, various foraging behaviour is considered [1]. The shell is placed in the centre of the circular arena They have not concentrated on various strategic movements of robots such as expanding square approach, expanding square with divider policy, parallel sweep approach and parallel sweep with divider policy. A strategy only plays a major role or any other factors are significantly contributed towards this robot performance For this performance analysis, we considered the following factors namely Speed, Size of Arena, Number of Robots and Type of Strategy
