Abstract

The paper describes the methodological materials for the inclusion of the topic "Parallel computing" in the school informatics. The set of tasks "Swarm of Robots" are considered. The tasks were tested at the competition "TRIZformaska-2017" - an inter-regional competition in informatics, system analysis and the theory of inventive problems solving (TRIZ) for schoolchildren and students. The following tasks are considered: computer game "Swarm of Robots" (the software is freeware); the task about rescue-robots; the task about a swarm of cellular automata, creating a pattern; load balancing in the computer network using a multi-agent system; the show of quadrocopters.
