Researchers propose a distributed UAV swarm architecture in which each drone hosts an independent Small Language Model. The system uses tiered memory (core, local, peer-specific), event-driven reason-act-observe cycles, and a deterministic gossip protocol filtering messages by recipient-specific novelty and recency. In a 10-UAV search-and-rescue simulation, the approach completes all runs while unrestricted flooding completes 70-85%, and approximately halves inference token consumption.

The tiered memory scheme and interest-aware gossip protocol are transferable patterns for any multi-agent setup facing context bloat and communication overhead.
