2. 1. Planning and Control of Cooperative Multi-Agent Manipulator-Endowed Systems

   Author : Christos Verginis; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Pedro Lima; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-agent systems; Temporal logics; Cooperative manipulation; Motion planning; Control; Navigation; Action planning; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Multi-agent planning and control is an active and increasingly studied topic of research, with many practical applications, such as rescue missions, security, surveillance, and transportation. More specifically, cases that involve complex manipulator-endowed systems  deserve extra attention due to potential complex cooperative manipulation tasks and their interaction with the environment.

   Abstract : Multi-agent systems (MAS) offer a tremendous potential to improve the quality of modern society life. For instance, robot networks have been widely used for providing services such as search and rescue missions, surveillance and data collection, healthcare and entertainment. READ MORE

6. 4. Coordination, Consensus and Communication in Multi-robot Control Systems

   Author : Alberto Speranzon; Karl Henrik Johansson; George J. Pappas; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-robot Coordination; Intelligent Control; Control under Communication Constraints; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Abstract : Analysis, design and implementation of cooperative control strategies for multi-robot systems under communication constraints is the topic of this thesis. Motivated by a rapidly growing number of applications with networked robots and other vehicles, fundamental limits on the achievable collaborative behavior are studied for large teams of autonomous agents.
