Cooperative Mission Control for Unmanned Air Vehicles
David A. Castañón, Christos G. Cassandras · Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) · 2004
This report documents the results of our investigations towards a theory of cooperative mission control for groups of unmanned air vehicles. The investigations were focused on two levels of control: (1) Strategy Development, to determine missions of interest and corresponding strategies for accomplishing those missions in centralized and distributed settings, and (2) Dynamic Vehicle Assignment and Scheduling, which determines activities, routes and schedules for individual vehicles to accomplish desired missions of interest and strategies.
