Abstract— Landmark-based graphs are a useful and parsimonious tool for representing large scale environments. Relating landmarks by means of feedback-control algorithms encoded i...
Motion planning for robots with many degrees of freedom requires the exploration of an exponentially large configuration space. Single-query motion planners restrict exploration ...
— The aim of this paper is to investigate how stigmergic information allow each individual of a group of autonomous robots to take advantages from other individual behaviors. The...
Abstract— We consider a multi-class queueing system operating under the Discriminatory Processor-Sharing (DPS) discipline. The DPS discipline provides a natural approach for mode...
