Proposed Model of Behavior for a Community of Robotic Agents

In a multi-robot system, increasing the complexity of the tasks and work in unstructured spaces shows that a single robot is insufficient to meet the requirements of the goal, thus proliferating the use of robotic communities and cooperative methods and collaborative work, reaching the diverse community concept. This heterogeneity adds a new challenge to collective robotics, which is the ability to coordinate individuals with multiple properties in an intelligent way, considering that when faced with a task, each according to their characteristics and capabilities plays a specific role with the rest should know how to coexist, with satisfactory results through the union of their attributes, and working together In this work, a proposal for a model of behavior for a robotic agent community, called Multi Agent Robot Society (MARS) capable of leading a diverse community of robots so that they cooperate and collaborate with each other to reach a goal that they have been proposed. The model is based on the theory of Intelligent Agents applied to a community of robots for cooperative and collaborative work geared to community work carried out based on agreements between its members, integrating each robot in the ability of making decisions and solving problems integrating the variables and generated proposals for the community, and then reaching a comprehensive settlement, which is considered the best of a group given by members of the community. © 2010 IEEE.
