Multi-robot task-allocation through vacancy chains
Existing task allocation algorithms generally do not consider the effects of task interaction, such as interference, but instead assume that tasks are independent. That assumptio...

Post-stabilization for rigid body simulation with contact and constraints
— Rigid body dynamics with contact constraints can be solved locally using linear complementarity techniques. However, these techniques do not impose the original constraints and...
