RoboCup as an Introduction to CS Research
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes using topics central to RoboCup, particularly autonomous agents and multiagent systems, as the subject-matter for a course designed to introduce undergraduate students to all facets of computer science research. Experiences are presented from the design and implementation of such a course. The course is structured around an ongoing incremental programming project that culminates in a class tournament in the RoboCup Soccer Server, an open-source infrastructure built to support multiagent systems research and education.

Evaluation of the Performance of CS Freiburg 1999 and CS Freiburg 2000
One of the questions one may ask when following research in robotic soccer is whether there is a measurable progress over the years in the robotic leagues. While everybody who has followed the games from 1997 to 2000 would agree that the robotic soccer players in the F2000 league have improved their playing skills, there is no hard evidence to justify this opinion. We tried to identify a number...
