We describe a VRML/Java-based virtual environment that is populated with heterogeneous articulated agents. In this simulated environment, agents compete for collecting certain obj...
This article aims to focus on self-regulation mechanisms that are exercised by virtual communities in order to maintain their boundaries of autonomy while directing behavior of th...
In the article we present two untraceability protocols for mobile agents. Comparing to other solutions, the advantage of the protocols is that they support agent’s autonomy in c...
This paper describes a drawing system that incorporates two novel interaction techniques based on analogies to physical tools. Power tools add limited autonomy in the form of rota...
Abstract-This paper deals with enhancing the level of autonomy in a robotic work cell. With that mission in mind, we present here an integrated framework for the sensing, the plann...
