TLDR
The paper describes implementation of behavior based robot team control and two different path planning methods ensuring that the feed pushing work is done properly and outlines suggestions for practical implementations regardless of particular application domain.
Abstract
The paper discuses several options to implement multi-robot systems focusing on coordination and action planning of the system. Particular implementation described in details as a case study presents a solution used in multi-robot system for feed pushing in cattle farm. The paper describes implementation of behavior based robot team control and two different path planning methods ensuring that the feed pushing work is done properly. Conclusions outline suggestions for practical implementations regardless of particular application domain.

Long-Term Adaptivity in Distributed Intelligent Systems: Study of ViaBots in a Simulated Environment

TL;DR: This paper proposes a long-term adaptive distributed intelligent systems model which combines an organization theory and multi-agent paradigm—ViaBots and proposes a mechanism for role transition from one agent to another as one of the key elements of long term adaptivity.

The Viable System Model: Its Provenance, Development, Methodology and Pathology

TL;DR: This paper reflects on the history, nature and present status of the V.S.M., without seeking once again to expound the model in detail or to demonstrate its validity, but does provide a synopsis, present the methodology and confront some highly contentious issues about both the managerial and scientific paradigms.

Elastic Strips: A Framework for Motion Generation in Human Environments

TL;DR: The elastic strip framework presented in this paper enables the execution of a previously planned motion in a dynamic environment for robots with many degrees of freedom, and encompasses methods to suspend task behavior when its execution becomes inconsistent with other constraints imposed on the motion.

Particle RRT for Path Planning with Uncertainty

TL;DR: A new extension to the rapidly-exploring random tree (RRT) path planning algorithm that explicitly considers uncertainty in its domain, similar to the operation of a particle filter.

Traderbots: a new paradigm for robust and efficient multirobot coordination in dynamic environments

TL;DR: TraderBots is developed, a market-based coordination approach that is inherently distributed, but can also opportunistically form centralized subgroups to improve efficiency.
