Agent-Based Systems Approach for Robotic Workcell Integration

摘要

This paper presents an approach to the application of agent-based systems for robotic workcell integration. Agent-based systems constitute a relatively new approach for analyzing, designing as well as implementing applications to be used in distributed systems, which is multi-robot workcell described in the paper. This systems should provide coordinated actions of all cooperating agents in order to achieve a common task. In the work was assumed the independent and autonomous operation of each robot as an individual agent. The aim of the designed system was to maximize the number of tasks realized by robots while minimizing the incompatibility of different robots during their joint work. It is assumed the independent operation of each robot and at their highest efficiency and effectiveness. In the paper are presented steps required to reach this aim and the short descriptions of proposed algorithms.
