Cellular automata models for cooperation in multirobot systems

摘要

In order to describe the technological problems of the coordination of groups of mobile minirobots, a biologically-inspired control framework for multi-agent tasks that is based on cellular automata models is discussed. This framework allow to study the behaviour of the robot platforms as collaborative agents in a multi-agent system. The case study proves that the CA model is an useful tool that can be exploited in various multiagent coordination tasks where there is a common goal among the agents.
