Position-based routing protocols in ad hoc networks combine a forwarding strategy with a recovery algorithm. The former fails when there are void regions or physical obstacles tha...
Basically, instrumental conditioning is learning through consequences: Behavior that produces positive results (high “instrumental response”) is reinforced, and that which pro...
- This paper describes an approach to the design of a population of cooperative robots based on concepts borrowed from Systems Theory and Artificial Intelligence The research has b...
