  abstract={
    Target detection, identification, and tracking are tasks of great importance in
    counterterrorism preparations. The development of a new generation of mobile
    autonomous wireless robotic sensor agents provides new advanced opportunities
    for target monitoring and tracking. We are particularly interested in the
    investigation of the underwater motion of the mobile robotic sensor agents.
    However, the trajectory of the underwater motion of a robotic sensor
    agent from the initial point to the destination significantly differs
    from the ground motion trajectory. Firstly, an underwater vehicle is
    affected by the current flow and its motion strongly depends on the
    structure of the river (cross-section shape, bottom type, etc) or ocean.
    Secondly, the battery power is limited and it almost impossible to
    recharge the batteries while the agent is underwater. Also, the time for
    robotic sensor agents to reach the target may be crucial. Consequently,
    finding the fastest path to the destination given a water stream
    is important. Thus, how should cluster of underwater robotic
    sensors move to optimize multi-attribute tasks?
