Ontology-based collaboration in multi-robot system: Approach and case study

Abstract

The paper propose an approach to mobile robots collaboration in cyber-physical system. For robot collaboration, the negotiation between them has to be supported. To provide semantic interoperability between different robots they are described in terms of ontologies. For information and knowledge exchange between cyber-physical system resources a smart space technology is used. It provides possibilities for different resources to implement ontology based information and knowledge sharing. Presented in the paper case study aims to show an example of robot communication while implementing joint activities.
