A multi-agent architecture for mobile robot navigation control
Jia-Houng Shyu, Ang Liu, Kao‐Shing Hwang · 2002
For mobile robot navigation, controlling the components such as sensors and motors is not enough. Besides controlling such components, a navigation control system needs to provide decisions in choosing a path to go and carrying out requests from the user. There are many tasks which need to be performed concurrently. Intelligent agents are suitable for being responsible for carrying out each task and performing cooperation between the agents. The paper describes an architecture which uses agents in a cooperative environment.
