Locomotion in Machines: Approaches to Coordination in Machines Past and Present

摘要: One of the key problems in systems multiple interacting agents is that coordination — getting each agent to do right thing at time with respect other and objective situation task. However, problem not limited agents, because even making an individual move typically requires a number elements (such as limbs) which must Agents are two types, natural artificial; discovering principles behind locomotion animals major undertaking they unknown us, whereas our own creations any such have been made explicit during design phase should therefore be easy examine. This paper examination some approaches used development particular class machines, brief glance biology see whether there evidence their application agents.
