jSwarm: Distributed Coordination in Robot Swarms
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a runtime system for swarms of mobile robots that manages distributed resources and provides a common programming interface for distributed swarm applications. The programming abstraction follows a systemic view and allows to specify the spatial-temporal behavior of applications. The runtime system analyzes application code, creates a dependency graph, extracts spatial-temporal actions and uses code rewriting in order to realize a distributed execution coordinated in space and time.

Distributed Models and Algorithms for Mobile Robot Systems
Systems consisting of a collection of independently operating mobile robots (a.k.a. robot swarms) have recently been studied from a distributed computing point of view. The paper reviews the basic model developed for such systems and some recent algorithmic results on a number of coordination and control tasks for robot swarms. The paper then discusses various possibilities for modifications in...
متن کاملLearning of Coordination Policies for Robotic Swarms
Inspired by biological swarms, robotic swarms are envisioned to solve real-world problems that are difficult for individual agents. Biological swarms can achieve collective intelligence based on local interactions and simple rules; however, designing effective distributed policies for large-scale robotic swarms to achieve a global objective can be challenging. Although it is often possible to d...
متن کاملGeneric, scalable and decentralized fault detection for robot swarms
Robot swarms are large-scale multirobot systems with decentralized control which means that each robot acts based only on local perception and on local coordination with neighboring robots. The decentralized approach to control confers number of potential benefits. In particular, inherent scalability and robustness are often highlighted as key distinguishing features of robot swarms compared wi...
متن کاملLong-Lived Distributed Relative Localization of Robot Swarms
This paper studies the problem of having mobile robots in a multi-robot system maintain an estimate of the relative position and relative orientation of near-by robots in the environment. This problem is studied in the context of large swarms of simple robots which are capable of measuring only the distance to near-by robots. We present two distributed localization algorithms with different tra...
