Modular robots represent a perfect application scenario for multiagent coordination. The autonomous modules composing the robot must coordinate their respective activities to enfor...
Behavioral interface specification languages, such as Java Modeling Language (JML), can be used to specify the behavior of program modules. We have developed a behavioral interfac...
This work deals with a multi-period capacitated location problem inspired by telecommunication access network planning problems, where demands and costs vary from one period to an...
robotics, the agents are often assumed to be identical. In this abstract, we argue that the cooperation between swarms of different kinds of robots can enhance the capabilities of ...
