| Título | Multi-Agent Coordination Applied to UAVS | |
| Abstract: Efforts have already been made to embed agents and agent- oriented technology into robots and other systems. For this purpose, many architectures and frameworks have been developed to allow soft- ware agents to interact properly with hardware components of theses systems. However, few proposals have evaluated a system where multiple agents are involved and require coordination. This dissertation com- pares the multi-agent systems approach, with a multi-agent-oriented programming language, against a more standard approach, with imperative programming, in the development of embedded systems that re- quire coordination. The experiments were performed using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) with embedded BDI agents. An agent-hardware integration middle-ware was developed to interface the software agents with the UAV’s hardware. This middle-ware was tested on a real UAV. Two experiments designed to test the coordination were performed: one simples, to test the basic functionalities of the strategy, and another more complex, simulating a cooperative search and rescue mission. These two experiments were implemented and evaluated with hardware-in-the-loop. | ||
