Abstract
An algorithm for calculating trajectories of a swarm of robots in the convex surface formation is discussed. The calculation of the robot trajectories in the reconfiguration is considered taking into account the time and energy costs minimization. The simulation results are presented for different number of robots (10 to 10000).

Key words
A swarm of robots, topological robotics, surface imitation, group control, unmanned vehicles, robotic systems.
