We propose a fuzzy qualitative (FQ) version of robot kinematics with the goal of bridging the gap between symbolic or qualitative functions and numerical sensing and control tasks...

We describe a theory from Herbert Simon that links the structure of complex systems to increased speed of evolution, and argue the position that this theory can be beneficial to ev...

This paper introduces a design technique for complex robotic systems called interfaces- rst design. Interfaces- rst design develops information interfaces based on the characteris...

This paper introduces a multi-robot cooperation approach to solve the pursuit evasion problem for mobile robots that have omnidirectional vision sensors in unknown environments. T...
Design patterns have been recently concerned in the multi-agent community for the design of systems with decentralized coordination. In this paper we present a design pattern for d...
