Coordination Challenges for Autonomous
نویسنده
چکیده
While past flight projects involved a single spacecraft in isolation, over forty proposed future missions involve multiple coordinated spacecraft. This paper presents characteristics of such missions in terms ofproperties of the phenomena being measured as well as the rationale for using multiple spacecraft. We describe the coordination problems associated with operating these missions and identifL needed technologies.

متن کاملEvaluating Ad Hoc Teamwork Performance in Drop-In Player Challenges
Ad hoc teamwork has been introduced as a general challenge for AI and especially multiagent systems [17]. The goal is to enable autonomous agents to band together with previously unknown teammates towards a common goal: collaboration without pre-coordination. A long-term vision for ad hoc teamwork is to enable robots or other autonomous agents to exhibit the sort of flexibility and adaptability...

Among the many anticipated roles for robots in future is that of being a human teammate. Aside from all the technological hurdles that have to be overcome on the hardware and control sides to make robots fit for work with humans, the added complication here is that humans have many conscious and subconscious expectations of their teammates – indeed, teaming is mostly a cognitive rather than phy...

متن کاملAd Hoc Autonomous Agent Teams: Collaboration without Pre-Coordination
As autonomous agents proliferate in the real world, both in software and robotic settings, they will increasingly need to band together for cooperative activities with previously unfamiliar teammates. In such ad hoc team settings, team strategies cannot be developed a priori. Rather, an agent must be prepared to cooperate with many types of teammates: it must collaborate without pre-coordinatio...
