COOPERATIVE MOBILE ROBOTS: A COGNITIVE MULTI-AGENT APPROACH

Mobile Robots and Autonomous Agents are very similar concepts that present several common aspects. In particular, Multi-Robot Systems that are intended to perform cooperative tasks can be seen as Multi-Agent Systems. This paper presents the implementation of a distributed control for mobile multi-robot system that perform cooperative tasks, under soft real-time restriction and using the best effort approach, based on a Multi-Agent approach.
