This paper explains some analyses that can be performed on a hierarchical finite state machine to validate that it performs as intended. Such a hierarchical state machine has tra...
An optimally working mobile system requires tight cooperation and an information stream that flows impeccably between its components. This, however, is not the current state of t...
Abstract. Agent-oriented methodologies are an important means for constructing agent-based systems in a controlled repeatable form. However, agent-oriented methodologies have not r...
We apply a novel theoretical approach to better understand the behaviour of different types of bare-bones PSOs. It avoids many common but unrealistic assumptions often used in an...
Biologically inspired designs can improve the design of artificial agents. In this paper we explain and explore the role of directional light sensors from an Evolutionary Robotic...
