Abstract— Today most robots interact with the surroundings only with their end-effectors. However there are many benefits to utilizing contact along the entire length of robot b...
Abstract— Real-world robotic environments are highly structured. The scalability of planning and reasoning methods to cope with complex problems in such environments crucially de...
Abstract— Network calculus is an established theory for deterministic quality of service analysis of fixed networks. Due to the failures inherent in fading channels it is, howev...
Abstract— Randomized motion planning techniques are responsible for many of the recent successes in robot control. However, most motion planning algorithms assume perfect and com...
