One of the goals of our work is to develop software for multiagent and cooperative robotic systems quickly and easily from design specifications.  The analysis and design tool that we currently use in called agentTool.  In agentTool, developers can analyze and design multiagent and cooperative robotic systems that work together to achieve team goals. 

The goal of this project is to extend the code generation capability of agentTool to create Java code that maps to a variety of multiagent and/or cooperative robotic platforms.

Possible cooperative robotic platforms include our Pioneer AT-3 robots as well as our CROS simulator. There are a variety of multiagent middleware that could be targeted. See http://vsis-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/projects/jadex/links.php for some ideas.
