Petri net based design of a multi-robot scenario - a case study

摘要

In the paper, we describe the realization of an application scenario with Khepera minirobots. The scenario is a decentralized intersection management, where several Kheperas move trough two intersecting lanes without collisions. The application is realized based on a Petri net based methodology for the seamless design of distributed embedded real-time systems. Hence, the presented work brings together results from two different research areas: robotic applications and embedded system's design.
