This introductory chapter provides an overview of the book, which deals with the plaid model. The plaid model is a rule for assigning a square tiling of the plane to each parameter A = p/q ɛ (0, 1) with pq even. Such parameters are called even rational. Based on the parameter A, even integers are assigned to the lines of the usual infinite grid of integer-spaced vertical and horizontal lines. These integers are called capacities. At the same time, a second grid of slanting lines is defined and odd integers are assigned to these lines. These odd integers are called masses. Then, a light point is placed at every intersection of the form σ‎ ∩ τ‎ where σ‎ is a slanting line, τ‎ is a horizontal or vertical line, and the mass of σ‎ has the same sign as the capacity of τ‎ and smaller absolute value.

The capacitance between the origin and any other lattice site in an infinite square lattice of identical capacitors each of capacitance C is calculated. The method is generalized to infinite Simple Cubic (SC) lattice of identical capacitors each of capacitance C. We make use of the superposition principle and the symmetry of the infinite grid.

This paper presents a distributed algorithm for circle formation problem under the infinite grid environment by asynchronous mobile opaque robots. Initially all the robots are acquiring distinct positions and they have to form a circle over the grid. Movements of the robots are restricted only along the grid lines. They do not share any global co-ordinate system. Robots are controlled by an asynchronous adversarial scheduler that operates in Look-Compute-Move cycles. The robots are indistinguishable by their nature, do not have any memory of their past configurations and previous actions. We consider the problem under luminous model, where robots communicate via lights, other than that they do not have any external communication system. Our protocol solves the  circle formation problem using seven colors. A subroutine of our algorithm also solves the line formation problem using three colors.
