Comparison of Different Coordination Strategies for the RoboCupRescue Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A fundamental difficulty faced by cooperative multiagent systems is to find how to efficiently coordinate agents. There are three fundamental processes to solve the coordination problem: mutual adjustment, direct supervision and standardization. In this paper, we present our results, obtained in the RoboCupRescue environment, comparing those coordination approaches to find which one is the best for a complex real-time problem like this one. Our results show that a decentralized approach based on mutual adjustment can be more flexible and give better results than a centralized approach using direct supervision. Also, we have obtained results showing that a standardization rule like the partitioning of the map can be helpful in those kind of environments.

The RoboCupRescue Simulation project aims at simulating large-scale disasters in order to explore coordination strategies helpful for real-life rescue missions. This can only be achieved if the simulation itself is as close to reality as possible. In this paper, we present a new fire simulator based on a realistic physical model of heat development and heat transport in urban fires. It allows t...

The objective of this study was to compare introgression and synthetic breed strategies for litter size trait improvement in sheep using computer simulation. For this purpose, a trait with heritability of 0.1, consisting of two chromosomes was simulated. On chromosome 1, a single QTL as the major gene was created that accounted for 40% of the total genetic variance. The effect of favorable and ...
