This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to two basic problems in modular self-reconfigurable robots: adaptive communication in self-reconfigurable and dynamic networks...
— This paper studies connectivity maintenance of robotic networks that communicate at discrete times and move in continuous space. We propose a distributed algorithm that allows ...
The Network Data Delivery Service NDDS is a novel network data-sharing system. NDDS builds on the model of information producers sources and consumers sinks. Producers generate da...
The goal of this paper is to explore the effects of synchronization on distributed decision making processes. In particular, we examine the dynamics of a spatially distributed mul...
This paper describes an autonomic machine control system applied to the adaptive control of a modular soldering machine. The particular case concerns the creation of a novel modul...
