Optimal Deterministic Ring Exploration with Oblivious Asynchronous Robots
We consider the problem of exploring an anonymous unoriented ring of size n by k identical, oblivious, asynchronous mobile robots, that are unable to communicate, yet have the abil...

Repeated auctions for robust task execution by a robot team
We present empirical results of an auction-based algorithm for dynamic allocation of tasks to robots. The results have been obtained both in simulation and using real robots. A di...

The cost of probabilistic agreement in oblivious robot networks
In this paper, we look at the time complexity of two agreement problems in networks of oblivious mobile robots, namely, at the gathering and scattering problems. Given a set of ro...
