Task Allocation for Cooperative Robots and Multiagent Systems |
 |
|
This project would focus on implementing existing multi robot/agent task allocation algorithms in our current OMACS framework. For example, the paper by Sanem Sariel, Tucker Balch and Nadia Erdogan entitled "Incremental Multi-Root Task Selection for Resource Constrained and Interrelated Tasks" describes an auction-based task allocation algorithm that provides incremental task allocation to robots based on tasks (goals in our venacular) that have a variety of constraints on them. Eventually, we would like to implement several alternative task allocation algorithms that can be used in our OMACS framework for ongoing tests of existing systems and evaluation of enhanced task allocation approaches.
