Holonic Management System for Hierarchical Robot Groups
Yasumichi AIYAMA · 2002
This paper introduces a management system for robot groups with “holonic architecture” which is one of distributed and hierarchical system architectures. In order to manage collaboration of many robots, we put sub-management system on each work sub-space. A management system on a subspace divides a task given by upper space into some sub-tasks and gives lower sub-spaces those sub-tasks. With this architecture we obtain distributed and hierarchical management system for the whole work space. We made a demonstration system and showed an example of task division and execution. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
