Cooperative Stigmergic Navigation in a Heterogeneous Robotic Swarm
We study self-organized cooperation in a heterogeneous robotic swarm consisting of two sub-swarms. The robots of each sub-swarm play distinct roles based on their different charac...

Mobile Pipelines: Parallelizing Left-Looking Algorithms Using Navigational Programming
Abstract. Parallelizing a sequential algorithm—i.e., manually or automatically converting it into an equivalent parallel distributed algorithm—is an important problem. Ideally,...

Action-related place-based mobile manipulation
— In mobile manipulation, the position to which the robot navigates has a large influence on the ease with which a subsequent manipulation action can be performed. Whether a man...

Perfomance Models for Blocked Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication Kernels
—Sparse Matrix-Vector multiplication (SpMV) is a very challenging computational kernel, since its performance depends greatly on both the input matrix and the underlying architec...
