Two mobile agents (robots), starting from different nodes of an n-node network at possibly different times, have to meet at the same node. This problem is known as rendezvous. Agents move in synchronous rounds using a deterministic algorithm. In each round, an agent decides to either remain idle or to move to one of the adjacent nodes. Each agent has a distinct integer label from the set {1, . ...

As the title says, this report comprises four case studies of different integrated care projects all over the world and displays “integration in action”.
